Ranked is currently a joke

My Placement matches were 3-7 , in most of them I did exceptionally well, got my position could carry to some point but then we got AFKs , some extreme tilting etc .

So now I got placed in B4 (was S5 but I idndt play much ranked games in season 5 wish I had to finish better than I actually did) .

The major issue now is putting former Silver and Bronze players together in one pool. The Skill level difference is huge.

I was used to being outdrafted in season 5 , since ppl cant simply pick and ban in low elos but give me a break when Real Bronze players are responsible for Banning and Picking , its simply insane.

Youll get people that pick complete unviable crap and wonder why it isnt going anywhere.

They pick meta champs that they absolutley cant play or have the slightest idea what their purpose is .

They have literally 0 gamesense , 0 mechanics , map awareness of an infantile.

They build complete and utter crap, even when behind instead of getting some defense items so they can at least lane halfway decent.

Ofc I get a lot more points for a win than for a loss.

But seriously its so insanely hard to play these games , espcially when u have to advance a lead .

This is complete luck now that u get more ppl on your team from your former elo than getting ppl from last years actual division below.

You got placed there for a reason enjoy your stay

If people aren't doing what you want just carry them prove you deserve to climb instead of whining

To be fair, you're not alone in this boat. I actually believe silver players are much better than bronze, and you will make it back up there if you were silver before. Since season 3, I've ended in plat. This season it started me in S1. I plan to just wait a solid month outside of a game here and there to let things settle down.

of course it is, no ACTUAL problems were addressed with ranked last season.

trolls/bots still consistently can and do feed IN AN OVER THE TOP OBVIOUS MANNER FOR HUNDREDS OF GAMES without any punishment at all, and then there are the passive aggressive nut jobs....

that's why I've chosen to not play ranked this season.

I accidentally joined a ranked game tho, and offered a suggestion to add a screen to prevent this from happening, and of course the troll community here immediately downvoted a common sense suggestion like this:

It just says a lot about the people currently in ranked, most of which do not deserve it
