Is anyone in Bronze-Gold even trying anymore?

I've been playing since Yasuo patch, and this is literally the most ridiculous shit I've ever seen in any game. There's literally people in this MMRs that STAND STILL while fighting, marksmen literally walking up to enemies and not attacking. It's almost like half of low MMR ranked is bots.

Before you flame, I was able to get 3 accounts into Gold last season in 3 days, almost 4, but I ran out of time. You used to be able to hard carry easily, but there are some of the most braindead people I've EVER seen playing this season.

I have had no problem climbing this season. Got placed Silver 3 and am currently Gold 2 with an almost 60% winrate.

Well, you know, they are supposed to be bad if they are placed in those divisions.

the way the ladder works is everyone gets split up over the ladder. in order for plat/diamond/challenger players to get back to their old rank there MUST be so many more in the bronze tier.

since silver is wildly overcrowded and bronze being barren it means everyone is trapped in the middle until more games get played and more bronzies finally fall out. (they wont, you cant fall out of silver 5 but their MMR will dip so low they'll only play with bronze players and you'll never see them again, but they do take a spot in silver none the less)

thats the logarithmic scaling nature of the leagues ranking system.

you either have a HS education or you dont....

but in short more games have to be played to get the riff raff out of gold/silver and to finally put the snowball ringers back into diamond.

its not that they aren't trying, but its just matchmaking being insufficient in creating a proper game from the get go.
