Ranked in diamond is purely based on who's got more autofill players.

I had sooo many people telling me they've stopped playing ranked after they reached diamond, because every time they climb higher, like to diamond 1-2, they immediatly have unwinnable losing streaks all the way back to d5. I was thinking how the fuck is that possible, until I experienced it myself. Literally nothing you do matters and you lose 5 games for every game you win. I just dunno what to do anymore. I took a month break, started again yesterday, won 1 lost 3 games. LOL 1 had an afk, 1 had an "lol i dont care karma building gunblade" and one we lost normally. On top of that, I'm a support main, and even when I try my hardest and heal the fuck out of everyone, there's always that one dude that accidentally gets caught out in a 40 min game and it's gg, So aggravating. Idk, maybe I'm just not good enough to break that barrier, but I had a 60% win rate while in diamond 2, now I'm back all the way to d5 with a 50% win rate, because of so many losses.

"You should be able to play 4-5 roles xd" - low elo players who don't understand that no one in high elo actually does that

I mean I would be ok if Autofill was only for support. But putting me in the role of adc, or other people as junglers or midlaners is horrible. Those are high impact roles that someone who doesn't main or second role them is going to lose. I fell form d3 80lp and game up when I dropped to d5.

It's just meta picks and whoever has an auto-fill loses.

My thoughts. Diamond is literalyl the best of the best players in league. Once you reach diamond you basically beat league of legends. The only thing left to do now, is to to find a way to get even better and reach master/challenger, or just start a stream/youtubing channel and talk about how you got to diamond.

Personally I don't see why you are so upset. Like you got to Diamond, the only way you get to challenger is if you are legit, inhumanly gifted. I hate to sound like a pessimist, but if you don't have that inhumane talent, than their frankly isn't much left for you to do. You reached your peek of skill. Such is life. It's a game, just have fun with it.

Sometimes I really wonder how anyone was able to play this game in a time where each team had 5 fills consistently.

Well, people on both teams are getting autofilled players. Statistically, you will climb if you are good enough. I don't see any way around that; yeah, losing streaks happen, but I don't see how a ranked system could possibly avoid that. That's basically what happened every single game when we didn't have any role selection; everyone but the first pick on each team was some degree of autofill.

Ranked is purely based on who's got more autofill players.
