Every time I start to go on a losing streak you match me up with some undefeated hero that crushes his lane and carries me to victory! You're the best Matchmaker! Thank you!

lmao, this is retarded. The streaks are even in aram, where when I win a few games in a row, I suddenly keep getting brainless teammates that constantly int by diving 1v5 or straight up 2-3 4v5 games where someone dces or doesn't even connect to the game. It sounds stupid as hell, but at this point the cycle repeated itself so many times that it's honestly hard to believe there's not something shitty about this whole mm system. This can't possibly be coincidence over and over and over and over again? <.< But hey, soon I'll be getting my magically coincidental win streak, so there's that?

Nonsense the Matchmaker is glorious! Any time I go on a losing streak Matchmaker sends me a hero to break it! God bless you Matchmaker!

I love matchmaker. Whenever I'm on a losing streak, I will get a team of Diamond carries that each go 7-0 before 10 minutes. I might be imagining it but those Silvers stood absolutely no chance.

Heck yea! Thank you to you unsung heroes that Matchmaker sends to save me when I start to fall! You guys rock!

My favorite part is when I lose 7 in a row because I previously won 8 in a row, then after that I comfortably pick a champion that I need mastery token or a hextech chest on because I know matchmaking will give me enemies who don't have hands or are playing on their calculator or something... Hell they once gave me 5 enemy premade who just wanted to int all game. I went 34 0 and got a mastery token, thanks RITO...

Please refer to this guy right here's thread: https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/6ekpTAEH-a-compliment-on-what-riot-really-managed-to-balance

This is the other side of that coin. The "unhappy" side.

Yes, this thread is a parody of that one (and other similar threads). The matchmaker only cares that the MMR of the players in a game are relatively close together (Usually it's within 100 MMR). It doesn't care if a player has been winning or losing, except in that winning a bunch will raise a player's MMR, causing them to play with and against better players, and losing a bunch will lower a player's MMR, causing them to play with worse players. And as common sense would dictate, it's easier to carry a game when all other players are worse than you, and harder to carry a game when all players are better than you.

By that logic, winning the games would also make your teammates better and losing games would make your teammates worse, which is exactly the opposite of what the complainers in that thread are saying. It's not about "carrying a game against worse players", it's about ""1v9ing"".

It’s that they think their “team mates” suddenly become brain dead when in reality they’re worse than their opponent and don’t have their level of vision control/lane control/roaming awareness and fuck over their team mates from their incompetence while they play super safe and “not feed”

Nope, that's mostly (mostly, because in case of some 'complainers' you might be right) not about that and I literally explained it in the post you're answering to.

They don’t match you with worse team mates.

Never had this “streaky matchmaking” problem, and have climbed from bronze to Plat this season by just getting bettter at the game.

Oh, but maybe even Rito just skipped me and my other 2 accounts when they sat down to fuck over everyone’s matches.

Well , I'm gold 5 , and I get matched against a lot of high plats and diamonds , and there isn't much difference between skills , I won many times against them , as long as other lanes aren't overfeeding , you ca do it
