It's bad enough I got up to Gold 2 last season and started this season off in bronze 2 but now it is actually impossible for me to climb. Every single fucking game I have a 1st time chogath or a 0/10 ashe, 0/14 soraka or a fiora that's 0/8 by 16min. Please tell me how you expect me to win when you are matching me with the absolute worst players in the entire community. "Have you ever thought it might be you" Ya I did but I quickly dismissed such an absurd idea when I'm 4/0 in laning phase while the rest of my team is feeding with no towers. I don't get it, I really don't, how in the world you expect me to win when I have I tryn that has a total winrate of 27 win 51 losses(total ranked games) on my team. Every game I get these handicaps, is it not possible to get a reasonably balanced match? There are millions of players and of all of them you give me this. Not only that these players are super toxic, I ask them please play safe and they respond with "go fuck yourself" and I'm the one that gets chat restricted? What in the world did I do to deserve this?

I know exactly how you feel. I was silver 1 last season and got placed into silver 2. I got trolled down so hard. I started the season like 12-31 or something. My best champion shaco i had a 30% winrate with him.

I literally was the only one on my team positive. I usually had double the gold of my next closest teammate. Every game it was just relentless feeding. I had to go 22-4-24 to win the game that got me out of that loss streak (which is fucking horrid matchmaking). I had to go 19-3-12 or 14-1-13 just to barely win some of these games. Every game was like that, if i didn't play 5 divisions above where i was i would have lost at 20 minutes.

I even had a game where we had a diamond riven smurf who went 17-0 and we lost that game. Because the 3 other people on my team were worthless.

If you look at my profile now.... i'm above a 50% winrate and my shaco is above 50 now.

Unfortunately the way riots matchmaking system works (which is why it sucks) you have to play amazingly well and like 5 divisions above you current level just to barely carry these games. You can't just be better, you have to hard carry these games to such a hard extent that you literally have to go like 15-3-17, and at that points its just like what the hell is the point to even playing.

Feels bad man. You're clearly over exaggerating but I know what you mean. I'm a Silver player moving slowly in the same range from B5, usually win lane then it's just a shit show every game. My flex queue MMR is a lot higher and I play with Gold players and play great there.

It's elo hell for a reason. In low elo you have people who are just plain bad at almost every aspect of the game, so while who you get on your team is always a "lottery" in a sense, it's amplified here because there's a massive difference between a pure noob and someone even a little better. This is going to happen for you as much as against you, that's not an excuse, but this can make it difficult to actually have a great win % because there are just some games you don't get a real chance to win. If your ADC just clearly doesn't know the game, you're never going to kill their tanks for example.

MMR has hurt me so much. It is so inaccurate though, so just don't worry about it.

you might be losing more than usual because you duo with that guy called free creampies or handjobs
