New players in ranked

There has to be a way to keep from brand new players playing ranked. Not a good thing when you have brand new players throwing by their actions, but everyone defends them because they somehow get more kills than you. I had a morg supp who i told to play safe, as in don't engage and lets farm. This morgana literally was chilling behind me for the entire laning phase. At some point the opposing jinx made a stupid mistake and hit me under tower. so i used my ashe ult to stun her under tower. What did my morgana do? nothing she just took my farm as I was attempting for a free kill.

Point is, brand new players do not know how to lane, or play the game. They need to be limited to normals until they get the basics down at the least. I kept up with the jinx, but their pyke was destroying me simply because morgana would avoid using shield on me even tho i would dodge the initial hook most of the time. With that being said, all the gold they got off pyke got him fed and the jinx up an item.

again please figure out a way to keep new players off of ranked. It's too soon. We already have trolls, we don't need brand new players who think they know shit about anything.

New to ranked players define the MMR range that they enter into, wherever that may be. Everyone is defined by how much better or how much worse they are relative to the average new player. If you find your ranked games frequently have new to ranked players in them, it is likely that you're simply not that much better than a new to ranked player.

That's why they have to wait until they are 30 before they can play though

My guess is, you started a bit over 2 months ago and are not very good at the game yourself..

Look, there is over 140 characters. there is probably just as many items. there is what, Six keystones? and each of these keystones have 3 potential build path options. No one teaches you anything. No one tells you "Hey, there is this great website that will teach you how to build" No one. only one I know if is Mobafire and apparently mobafire is famous for giving people bad builds. well, I guess the means goes "they're building the top build on mobafire LULLMAOXXXDDDD"

over 140 characters and each of them have different abilities, different combos, different keystone masteries, different build paths. the recommended tab helps but, every one I talk to says "Don't build recommended its bad, make your own build."

The only "Help" I have gotten in learning this game is "Ahahah why are you building that, are you r%%%%%ed" Because no one showed me any better. I asked the community directly for help on the forms. I think I posted Who are good characters to start learning how to play the game with. How do I CS under tower? as well as a few other things.

they didn't really give me any answers.. the closest thing I got to an answer was "play what you want" Literally everything else got ignored.

I still rely on the generic Mastery pages because its to much to learn all at once.. is Electrocute Calamity or is that Domination? Should I take Scorch over (I actually had to look this up) transcendence? I have been playing for probably about 3 weeks now and I don't know the masteries because I am focused on what they other 125 characters that I have yet to see in game, do.

I pretty much stick to the same build because its to much to learn all at once.

Maybe some one should actually give tips instead of quoting memes like "just click heads", "Just attack" or, calling us "R%%%%%s" because How dare we be new to a game after basically being harassed by Youtube Advertisements for the past 8 months.
