MMR Balance

I'd like to bring attention to the fact that i just played a normal game, against a plat 3 hecarim and a plat 5 lucian, and got STEAM ROLLED. While my team consisted of 5 bronze players. Why in the ACTUAL FLOCK of birds does this kind of BULL SHIFT happen. The hecarim was queued with a bronze anivia. This can't be a thing. If you queue with someone higher than your level there shouldn't be a BENEFIT to this blasphemy. If you queue with someone higher than your rank you better prepare for the anal pounding of a lifetime not the hardest carry of your life. THAT MY FRIENDS IS A FORM OF BOOSTING MMR. Thank you and Funk you to the idiot who designed MMR who works for Riot Games.

I'm not saying it 100% fair but it's alot closer than what it looks like at glance.

The galio on your team is s3, but he has S1/G5 MMR because he was gold last season. He isn't a S3 player.

The bronze 3 yasuo was duo'd with his plat lucian friend. Apparently hec was with anivia too. This isn't MMR boosting, he's just playing with a friend.

The unranked darius on the enemy team was S5, which im just gonna round down to bronze for the purpose of comparing the teams. You'll see what i mean, its closer than what it looks.

Gangplank bronze Shyvana bronze Galio silver Corki silver Blitzcrank gold

Darius bronze Anivia bronze Yasuo bronze Hecarim plat Lucian plat

When 2 players that a pretty far apart from each other in elo duo together in norms, its gonna get pretty shaky.

I queue up for normals with my friends that are silver/gold, and we often just get paired against a bunch of plats/diamonds that they struggle against. If I'm not on my main champs, we just lose. or we get paired up with a bunch of golds and we just win.

So it kinda is pound or be pounded. We do have some good games like this though.

It's kinda of a struggle, so recently I've just been playing with them on a smurf account and playing some random stuff I don't play. Its just more fun than way, just less steamrolling on either side happens and better games.

I don't see anything wrong with me playing with my friends in normal games.

Normal game MMR is different from ranked MMR. I almost never play normal.

My ranked MMR is plat, my normal MMR is bronze.

I don't know why it is like this, maybe it would be better to have 1 MMR per account, regardless of game type.
