RIOT MATCHMAKING
Imagine you are Diamond 4, currently sitting at the top 3% players according the the statistics and you are trying to improve the game by playing with what we are going to call a '''''''TEAM''''''
Then you press accept the game and BOOM! There you go! 4 fucking monkeys in your team, 2 of them unranked , one of them with 25% winrate with 4 games in the whole season and unranked the last season, the second one unranked with 3 games the whole season that will eventually end the game with 12 deaths in 21 minutes
One gold that first time Amumu , of course, in ranked.
And lastly a platinum player.
You will think... Yes but they will try to balance the enemy team as well to make the match faird since you are Diamond.
Ok.
Lets have a look at the enemy ranks... Platinum 460% winrate over 60 games, Platinum 4, Platinum 3 with 57% win rateover 50 games , Platinum 3 with 60% win rate over 120 games Platinum 3 with 54% win rate over 30 games Platinum 2 on a winning streak
So many questions pop up in my mind right now, like... 1 How can a player with over 200 ranked games (600 if we count the normal games) in season 9, be placed in the same queue as a level 77 account and a level 47 account with barely 5 games both in the whole season? 2 How can you allow a level 136 with over 3000 games be in the same queue as a level 47 with at most 500 games overall? (i repeat that they have respectively 25% and 50% win rate , in a total of 5 and 4 games this season, so NO, it cant be because the account is a smurf as in 3 games with a fresh account i dont end up playing with the top 3% players in the world... EVEN IF APPARENTLY I FUCKING DO!!!!) 3 Why is there such a huge fucking discrepancy in the ranks. I am supposed to play with people of around my level 4 How can i play with people of my level if i get placed with fucking monkeys and every time I lose the game (or they lose me the games, most likely going to happen this way) i get placed with even worse scumbags which makes my matchmaking even more shit? 5 WHY?
I started from the very bottom of bronze this season, i had to give blood and soul to climb to the very rank where i am right now. And this is how i get rewarded? Is this how you dear riot treat your most passionate fans? I spent days studying this game, from streamers to coaching, to breakdowns, to worlds, to lec, to lck, to lpl, to startegies.
And this is how you repay your community?
No wonder is the most toxic community in the world, and im just one of the many, many that are in the same exact situation, because this is happening in every single rank, but sadly, it happens even more in high elo
