my rank is silver 2 and when am silver 2 i expect to play with and against other silver players that are around my rank. but every time i get into a game my teamates are like silver 4-5 and the enemy is full silver 2. in the last 2 games i have had ppl that are unranked and i can accept that because they need to start somewhere but why do i have ppl a unranked player and a bronze 1 in my team when the enemy has a goddamn gold 5?why couldt they just put me in the other team and but the gold in my team and boom its a balanced match for you. and you know hat the worst thing is. riot probibly isnt going to do shit about this.

He was in a pre-made with support and yes placing new players into high silver is nonsense, they should start at bronze 3-5 and climb out. Gold 5 is however irrelevant, there is no difference between silver 2 and gold 5 whatsoever.

But will they change it next year? I really feel that this season ranked in silver are just nightmare As someone said, it's like climbing a waterfall, the match are almost never even

It was always like that in silver, it is the most inconsistent tier of all, even bronze has more consistency in it. About climbing: You see, silver is an average Elo where everyone "just plays" and people do it for YEARS. That means no matter how long you "just play" there is no reason why you would climb out of silver by default, that is what people don't understand. If you want to get higher you have to put more effort into your gameplay... or you just don't and keep enjoying games in silver.

That's so true, i got placed b2 this season ( first acc ), it took me like 10/15 games to b2 --> s5

from s5-->s4 something like 30 games

and now i'm hardstuck s4, with almost 110 games, as you say, no consistency whatsoever, every game it's not a coinflip, it's a roulette, will i get the plat smurf? Will they get the unranked lv 30 in placements? Will i get the toxic int feeder with 500 games in silver that doesn't care about lp? Will the enemy team DC out of nowhere? Will i get the Gold 5 ADC that is main support and screw all the game? ( literally happened my last game, elettroshock ashe btw )

You can do good and still be hardstuck silver in my opinion, the only way i can see i'll climb this is to play TOP NOTCH EVERY game, and pray your team wont screw you, but idk if i'm willing to play 300 games for a gold border..

I know i'm making a wall of text, but recently i really had it rough..

The thing is that LoL is a MOBA and for a MOBA 300 games is nothing. You have to play a lot to progress, because there is so much to learn. On the other side you can play the game for years and still not be bored for same reasons.
