LoL has the worst matchmaking I've ever seen (10+ games loss streak and no end in sight!)

Here you go. I am not allowed to win games. It is not happening. I think I've never seen such a rigged garbage ELO hell "matchmaking" ever. Everytime I try to play a game - as you can see, a lot today as it is a public holiday - my "teams" consists of 0/5, 0/12, 0/24 (!). When I go on OP.GG I see ACE, and ACE, and ACE - all of them are loss. When I am not good, I lose, fine. But when I am good, I have to lose either.

Please, I linked it up there. I feed on purpose now too and leave and all that, because League of Legends is not about skill, it is about how rigged the "matchmaking" is. A real matchmaking, something LoL does not have, you would get worse enemies. As you can see, my enemies are getting better and/or my "team mates" worse. What kind of matchmaking is this?

You can stick your "but you need to be better" sort of shit where the sun ain't shinin', because I expect a "match" when it says "match found", not "carry 4 atricious shitnoobs AGAINST 4 good players". It is literally 1vs8.

OP.gg up there is updated and cached, but the game I just left (with 1-8, of which I was the only kill!). See yourself. This game is such trash that I keep feeding on purpose now. Maybe I win games then. Blitzcrank and Darius are feeder games to vent, but my "team mates" fed even worse.

Funny, for example, I get out of the hundres of potential players 2x the same noob trash premade (see op.gg on the left side).

Highlights of my "team mates"? I will review op.gg from top to bottom:

  • I ragequitted this last game: 2-20 endgame stats. 0/3 Yi, 1/2 Ashe (me), 1/4 Teemo, 0/7/0 Ahri.

  • 0/18/3 Yi, 2/15/4 Tristana and 5/9/5. Me: 8/3/4 The 0/18 Yi was with an average premade and I had to lose. Reports - Do nothing, because 0/18/3 is "good enough"? OUtcome: 28-55.

  • 0/8/0 Tresh, 1/6/0 Poppy, 0/8/0 Nidalee, 3/10/0 me, as "feeder". I was the best in that matter.. When I troll on purpose!!

  • 0/3/0 Jax, 0/3/0 Fiora, 0/3/0 Rengar, 1/8/0 Sivir - Me: 1/1/0

(bunch of wins I carried - who else?)

  • 3/9 Kayn, 0/6/1 Singed, 1/6 Ahri -** Me? 6/4** - and ACE

  • Feeding on purpose, but still: 1/6, 3/7, 2/7

  • 0/24/6 Nasus (!!!, not only a 0/18 Yi, but 0/24 Nasus), 4/10 Vi - Me: 19/7 - and ACE

  • 6/12 Nidalee, 5/11 Yasuo. Me: 10/9, Meh.

  • 3/7 Urgot, 0/8 Yasuo, 3/6 Veigar, 9/3 - Me, and ACE

  • Feeding on purpose, could've been won. One out of 20 games where I fed and lost.

  • 1/12/2 Yasuo, 4/9 bottom lane, 8/10 Ashe, - Me: 15/8

  • Feeding on purpose

  • 1/10, 2/6, 0/4, 0/1/10 (me - but what can I do with feeder noobs as Yuumi?)

  • 0/5/0 Jax - Me, being ACE as 3/1/5 Yuumi

  • 2/10/2 Yasuo, 5/10 Hecarim, 3/7 Aurelion Sol, 0/10/0 Jax (!!! Remember the 0/24 and the 0/18?) - Me 0/1/1

  • 0/2 Aatrox, 2/6 Jax, 2/3 Fizz, 2/7 Miss Fortune, 2/5 - Me - What can I do?

These were my games that I had to lose in unwinnable states. It is not about "being pre-30" or "not ranked". This is the worst garbage "matchmaking" ever. There are "teams" I am being surrounded by 100% feeders (4 out of 4), 75% feeders, 100% feeders, 50% feeders. The chance that out of these games listed above with 0/24 Nasus' and 0/18 Yis is so extremely low that I call it out once more: This game's "matchmaking" is rigged, non-functional and manipulated. Do not play LoL, it is no eSport. It has nothing to do with skill, it is like playing Basketball with 3 toddlers and no referee. Fuck this game, fuck RIOT, if this company goes bankrupt, the quality of the U.S. videogame industry would go up.

People are not toxic. This rigged "matchmaking" does. If you get missmatches of 0/10, 0/24, 0/18, 0/8, 1/12, 1/8, 3x 0/3/0 - THESE ARE NOT MATCHES. AND NOT IN A ROW. THE CHANCE OF "THE ENEMY HAS MORE TROLLS" SHOULD GIVE ME WINNABLE GAMES, BUT I LOSE AND LOSE AND LOSE AND LOSE AND LOSE AND LOSE - being ACE, and ACE, and ACE, and ACE.

By the way, on another account, I just got a S+. So the rigging and manipulating is against accounts for some reason.

Being ACE is best on team. When thhe place your finishing is not in the top 3 players its not really that impressive? Congrats you finished in 6th place. Meanwhile theres a massive # of games your dead last in op.GG and shure you can claim your intentionally feeding and trying to lose them if you want... but that's not MM fault that your deciding to actively lose now is it?

Normals will never be high quality MM and that's literally not the point for the que.

Idk man your match history seems weird like your stats are well below average so I am going to assume your new? That's cool welcome if you are! But yea idk like match making definitely not the best for new players no doubt but just raging and afking or inting doesn't help. And hell some days its hard to win idk why lose streaks happen. Yesterday I won all but one game and I felt great. I think when you winning you get confident and just in a better mood and play better so it helps the win streak continue. Other days you get some bad luck that leads to losing more and you tilt and then play worse which adds to the lose streak.

But improving does help. Although obviously it takes a lot of time and effort plus it's harder if you keep getting completely out gunned. But the game is definitely clime able if you have the right mindset. Granted I have played forever so I am not seeing this for the first time. But like.... put me some dude who after all this time finally hit plat elo into one of your games. Now... not saying I will carry all of them, cuz I won't. But in a good number of them I will do most of the heavy lifting and win those games. But now put me into a game with say a high diamond or hell some top tier player. Hell put 5 of me on a team verse 1 of them and a couple other people and holy fuck will I get my shit kicked in. It be like me smurfing in iron 4 I would get stomped so damn hard. Their skill is just that much greater than mine, and I think what you are running into is you are just playing people who's skill is just much higher than yours currently. It's tough I know but I don't know what Riot can do about it. I think they definitely need to fix their normal match making is new legit accounts mmr is way too high to start.

I am confused by your like Blitzcrank heal ignite games. Looks like you not playing him support? Looks like top maybe? Idk I mean.... you can definitely try it but Blitzcrank is not the best solo laner so it though to win playing him in solo lane. He great for supporting your bot lane player generally.

Yea ever since last season and damage increased the game been more snowball so loses feel even worse than they used to. Players get some leads and it just compounds from there unless your team works together. But it seems like for a vast majority of players the skill with snowball difference in games is just too great that it's leading to just waaaayyy more snowball and shitty game experiences. I doubt Riot will ever try and fix it probably, which sucks but I don't know what else to say.

It's like this bronze Ashe shit talking me all game last night. Like I get it, their mad they not doing well but it's on them to improve. Now should I have been in that normal game? Probably not... but his teammates were all similar ranks to me and made me really sweat and work with my team to win. Not sure why the player decided to trash talk and call me bad instead of just asking for advice I would have gladly given them some tips.

I used to think this conspiracy shit was real but it's really not. Everything comes down to individual skill and adaptability. Why do you think smurfing is a thing? Smurfs can get unreal winrates even if players INT or AFK and still carry.

If anything the game is matching you with players of similar mentality or personal skill and it's dicking you over so you say its matchmaking when really it's just conflicting personalities & Better shotcallers.

recency bias

win streaks and loss streaks happen just as often as each other and intermittent wins and losses. you're just attempting to cope with the fact that you're hardstuck in an elo in which you believe you don't belong

I play a mc server with a coinflip feature and its the same thing, do a few low money coinflips (normals) to get the badluck out of the way, then when your feeling lucky do a big coinflip, (ranked)

Ur lvl 23 so why even bother? idk buy you have games with more than 20 deaths and one that's recent you have no items and 16 deths so im not sure about what you are complaining about if you do same in some of your games.

The only way to get around Riot's awkward matchmaking system is to make good use of the dodge feature.

I just started learning this. I also look up people on op.gg now, which I never used to do. If I see they're a troll, then it's an easy dodge.

It's a hard habit to get into to be honest, but it will save you so much time. If someone picks something stupid, like Nidalee top, then I dodge as well. I used to stick with these games, play it out, and it always ends in a loss.

Another unfortunate consequence of this season is that so many people only stick to 10% of the roster, and those that don't have no room for error because those meta champions are so slippery and do so much damage. So unless I see it is a smurf, or they're somehow really good with that champion (haven't seen it yet). I'm dodging off-meta picks that make no sense. They'll lose, then we'll all lose.
