Why is it that when I'm on a hot streak my teams get progressively worse?
This isn't a QQ post about muh teams doh.
When I lose a promo, i try to take about 15 minutes to review where the team went wrong what I could have done better in lane and how much better would I have to play/ or what I would have had to do to win the game. I usually start these by comparing the win rates of the members of our teams and this is what gets me fucked up.
Every lose I get in promos my team has a significantly worse win ratio than their team. For an example I'll use the stats of my last 2 games, both loses.I'm a top lane main so the rates will go like a scoreboard is organized from top down. (for the second game i added in the mmr of each player, i would've done it for the first game but i didnt think about it and it takes too long to load. The * means that too many duo games were played and the rating is probably inaccurate.)
1st game Me 55% vs 65% Jg 35% vs 47% (their worst player) Mid 40% vs 55% Adc 53% vs 60% Sup 35% vs 60%
2nd game Me 55% (1395) vs 53% (1452) Jg 45% (1383) vs 70% (1387) Mid 70% (1403) vs 65% (1414) Adc 45% (1355****) vs 54% (1450) Sup 30% (1355*) vs 50% (1370)
I find it kinda wonky that 90% of the opponents I faced had win-rate of 50% or greater where when it comes to allies it was only 25%. Not to mention that the mmr of the players in game 2 were higher than everyone on our teams. Now win ratio isn't necessarily indicative of who is going to win, but it's an important enough stat to be taken into consideration when drafting teams. I understand that these teams are inevitable and with hundreds of thousands of games played a day shit like this is gonna happen, but it happens a little too often during important games to be acceptable.
Edit: For those saying that it's not a large sample size, understand I do this with every loss I feel i couldn't have prevented to see if it really was my team under performing or it's confirmation bias. I also do this with wins that feel we couldn't have thrown if we tried to see if their team was significantly worse. SO when I show you 2 games you have to realize that I do this all the time and it's the same story (almost) every game. I'm only showing 2 because I don't have the rest of the stats on record and I'd rather not make stuff up to try and get my point across
Edit 2: I see a lot of people are saying, "Well if you win your mmr goes up and you place against tougher opponents." You're ignoring the whole point of the post. I said why do my team mates get worse, not why my opponents get tougher. If i were getting put in matches with higher skilled people across the board I'd understand but that's not what's happening. When in my promos to silver 1 i should be playing against people in that division WITH people from that division. But instead the people on my team are worse than the division I'm trying to get into and my opponents are BETTER than the division im trying to get into. Saying that winning increases my mmr so i should get worse teams doesn't make sense. Especially because i clearly don't belong in the division I'm in if I'm constantly going on large win or lose streaks. (if its true that my teams get worse as my mmr increases)
