About matchmaking
Last week I had a 12 win streak as ww in ranked: http://imgur.com/a/gMw36 I went from plat 5 to plat 4 100 LP.
Then, after this streak, I started to have weird matchups. Every single lane would lose. game after game. in my last game, our mid (j4) died 3 times before min. 4 to a Talon. 2 times 1v1, 1 time ganked. Lane can have a winning matchup, and have half cs of enemy and be 0/5/0 with no jungle intervention.
In another game, our top did 0/8/0.
in another, I have a Darius going 0/5/0 against a Malphite (without junglers ganks).
Despite huge games, where I am around 65% kill participation, I got drakes, turrets, rift heralds, baron nashors, I do 14/6/11 or 10/5/16 or 15/5/8, I am 1st (or among highest) in dmg dealth to champ, first in dmg taken, first in CC to champs... still lose.
After a win streak, I have these games where I don't feel like "The elo is too high for me", I feel like match-making somehow creates weird games. I think it's unhealthy for me, but also for my teammates who get destroyed 1v1 in lane, dying and dying, being out-csed...... must be frustrating for them as well. I just don't understand how it works.
Anyway, still love the game, and I focus on my mistakes; I still do tons =) just wanted to share.
