How is this balanced?

So Riot just balances games by putting people with high win rates on a team with 4 low win rates? Sounds like a really lazy way to balance a game... For reference i was 3-0 in my placement games, and then this happens? How does the matchmaking not just put one of those players on my team? Legit obnoxious matchmaking lol...

high win rates

51%

low win rates

49%

The difference is clearly unsustainable...

The only one who is debatable is the 56% player, but with less than 100 games and a coming back from last season's Silver 3 mmr, the system simply doesn't know YET exactly where he belongs. If anyone climbing the ladder becomes a terrible event, you're not ready to face relative ranking.

You're on your placements, YOU are the variable in this case. Others are pretty close to each other.

Because of blue side being generally stronger they put slightly higher mmr players on red side.

Fam 49% is not "low" and 51% is not "high".

Also, winrate doesn't equal skill nor mmr

Ranks coupled with winrate are what we need here lmao

If the 51% players lose like 4 games they go 49% xd
