See, I don't mind playing against better people, I've been playing with High golds-low diamonds for a couple years now, but it seems not my teammates are all Silvers vs those said better players, and even if I was good enough currently to destroy my match up, it wouldn't do a dam thing because my team is just awful. This is coming from someone who doesn't often blame his teammates, I understand WE all have bad games, but these are just players who are getting ass blasted because they are simply not good enough, meanwhile I'm rusty and struggling to just stay even, so once my other lanes fall I get gangbanged and then it's pretty much game over. Don't get me wrong, once in awhile my team is good and I'm the awful one, but more times then not I feel like it's me and my silver friends vs a Diamond and his 2 plat friends and 2 mid-high gold friends.
At this point, I'm currently not good enough to play against these players in general, let a lone am I fit to lead a team of silvers against them. I've never lost as often in my career then I have in the last week since I've come back from a few month break. Some of that I can contribute to trying to play Neeko and learning her ins and outs as I generally do better with champs I've been playing for awhile, but even then she isn't that hard and I just feel out skilled in a lot of the match ups. I again wouldn't have a problem with this as it helps me get back to my old skill level from not that long ago, but it makes it much harder to do when I don't have the teammates to at least hold their own.
