Game trying to stop me from climbing.

Lyless··2 votes·811 views

Call me crazy, but this game is suppose to take into account improvement in gameplay. 16 out 24 wins is massive improvement for me. But this games chooses to take none of this into account and continue to force feeders, and afks on me. Despite that I am winning a lot of these games the ones I lose count for about the price of two wins. How in the hell is this encouraging growth? Oh no.... that's just for high elo players.

You aren't some special target of the system. It doesn't magically detect bad teammates and send them to you. The only constant in your games is yourself.

You've heard this all before, and you'll hear it all again in your next thread.

And it's not reflecting how much better I have gotten in 25 games. So, it should give me better teammates or at least not trolls.

You won't see the reflection just yet. The more you win, you will see the numbers shift. As for trolls, you'll see them all through every elo. There's no magical land where they aren't there.

you guys are basically saying I need to go 60 out of 65 to climb and that's just not possible.

Not at all. And don't look at that big of a scale it'll make it appear impossible. Just try to win 6 or 7 of your next 10. Then try to do it again. If you slip up and lose more don't take it harsh. Just take a breather and rest, try to grab that next 6 or 7 out of 10.

it doesn't work like that for me. I will win 6 and then lose 4. That's way it works. Like today. I can't buy a win. And it just puts me in a deeper hole.

That 6-4 is moving you in the right direction. Yes, it's slow. I know you don't want it to be slow and you'd rather it happens right now, but it won't. Keep going 6-4, 6-4. pretty soon you're 12-8, 18-12, 24-16, 30-20. But try to look at smaller samples so you don't drive yourself nuts.

I am like 1 and 5 today. Horrible teams, and bad breaks. That's the way it is.

And if you keep continuously getting better and learning from the mistakes you'll have a couple 5-1 days. The more you work on what you CAN control the better. When you have games where your team isn't trolling but isn't necessarily winning, make sure you can turn those into wins.

you don't seem to understand I will still be in a hole. I can't win every game which is what I NEED TO DO!

Yes, but you'll be closer to getting out of that hole. If you keep looking at it like you have to win 100 games at once IT.WILL.NEVER.HAPPEN. You need to try one game at a time, just a couple at a time and eventually you will get there. If you don't look at it like this and continue to see 100 games at a time, you'll never get out of bronze.

You have an MMR. If you are bronze 5 or something your MMR could be really really low, and regardless of a streak of positive win rate, it's still not enough to fix your MMR long term. You want to get a higher long term ranking, you need to play better long term.

yea because 25 games isn't a start nor any good. This game is crap.

Sure it's a good start, and it will boost your MMR.

I looked you up Bronze 4 with 950 MMR, which is average for B4. You have nothing to stress about. Keep winning games and your win % high, you will be climbing.

Also see that you AFK lvl 1 in a game recently, such things dont help.

it's not possible to win every game. Therefore any loss sets me back by like 3 losses. It's not right.

should I talk about things that aren't happening in my games? Because it wouldn't help me. Why post about things that aren't going to help me?
