I won seven of my provisionala and got bronze three.... but the thing is I am fine with it except the fact that I carried my games pretty hard and I was mostly with and against silver players. If you are carrying silver players quite hard and get bronze three I think there is a problem...

Ill bump this. You still lose LP in a 4v5 when a player never connects.

Plus I hate to say it, but Riot is one of the worst companies in regards to their customer service/ customer value.

They probably won't even read this, and if they do they probably wont do anything about it.

They should reinvent the entire League ranking system. Instead of being judged by the amount of wins you get for your ranking. Our rank should be decided by how good we do at our roles in games. (C,B,A,S). Since Dynamic Que is meant for people to choose their own roles, Riot can sort who plays what role. We just sometimes have bad games where we make a simple mistake and we get snowballed or we just have a team that doesn't play at the same level that you do. So Riot judging our own skill level by our teams teamwork and skill just seems a little unjust. So please riot, fix this game.

Your Matchhistory

I only see 2 games where you had > 20 kills starting at 1/25/2015.....Thats not "average of 20 kills" my friend ;D

But i see you didnt play that bad either. Keep trying and you will eventually come out of bronze

Placements don´t determine where you end your ranking in S5. They determine where you start and how long you need to get to your desired goal.

Ranking is a grind. And when you are not able to grind your way up the ladder, maybe you are meant to stay where you are in the ladder. Dont blame "elo-hell" or your teammates. Do better then them and you have the possibility to climb.

Talking: Player that was bronze 4 in S3, silver 2 S4 and now got placed in gold 5 in S5.

Now let the downvotes begin. I dont care. I know there are enough people who know i AM right. And thats enough

I wondered if maybe it was just my skill that was keeping me from climbing, but it's not. I only get paired with bad teammates now, despite trying to lead them or use pings at all. You can be the best player in the game, even carry your team, but if they make dumb plays you will lose and your LP will go down tremendously despite how well you did. Pretty much every game I've lost lately I've done the best on my team and tried to help them to no avail, thus I will live in bronze forever.

The new ranking system depends on how you play they said. While I do agree the change they made where we gain a tad more than we lose on average is amazing (thank you riot), I don't believe what they said about it depending on how you do in game is necessarily true. I just played a game as leblanc where I carried very hard. I understand as a leblanc player it could sound like i was stealing kills like mad but at the end of the game I had the most damage dealt to champions as well as all around (like twice as much as anyone else). I lost 21 league points that game, of course the next game I win I will most likely get those points back, plus a few more. Aside from having the most damage output (which isn't too hard as leblanc I know) I made great plays with my E where i snared their key players so my team could bounce on them and then destroy there team as I jumped in and out. We lost the game because my team decided to initiate a team-fight without me and our ADC being there, then because it was just us two and their whole team was at full strength with baron buff we couldn't hold them off. I don't think that I deserved to lose that many league points, the same thing has happened before where I do well and my team doesn't do so hot but I carry for a while and they throw it by doing something less than smart, usually while I am spamming the danger or retreat ping. Riot, I personally think the new ranking system is a lot better but you did tell us it would be based a little more on personal skill, please try to find a better way to measure this or don't tell us these great ideas unless it becomes true. This is a team game for sure, but all league players are tired of getting sloppy teams and losing massive Lp for others mistakes. Please consider my request. :)

8/2 bronze V seems legit right coming from someone that plays support frequently due to people just simply, not wanting to. This system seems very uneven generally my goal from start to finish is wining for my team. I find that frequently a heavy bias is placed on members of the team that get kills, regardless of actual affect in the match in terms of the team wining (i.e. roaming for assassinations as apposed to helping the team achieve a game changing / finishing goal / push). The root problem it seems to me is there is no value put on good strategic play in order to achieve a bigger goal than simply: the next kill. A good place for reference would be team sports, many different people with different skill sets coming together to work to achieve a common goal.

dude once ur in bronze 5 ur doomed... ur never getting out of it ever. the ranking system and how u get out of division system is sooo bad ... u will be present in every team fights as a support and always take damage for adc and ward every area in map and still loose because its bronze .. and never ever get out of it.. just fukin ridiculous ..... we people in bronze get no priority ... we r bronze but the people that criticize us have no idea how are games are ... we try and we dont go for more than 2-4 deaths max as a support still loose.... after doing all that and remain in bronze 5 ...

Yeah, try going 10/4/26 as a Sona supp, carrying the game, only to barely lose the game and lose 26 LP. Now I just keep getting paired with other low ranking players so I can not progress, despite how well I do. I hate that my skill plays no impact at all in my ranking, so I really have no clue what my actual rank should be. Once a bronze, always a bronze, there's no climbing out.
