How does match making even work, I think its totally flawed

I go to silver, I get placed back in B4 which is hardly a step up from last season. Then I think it will be easy, nope its not at all...

Bronze is just luck of the draw nothing else about it, doesn't matter how hard I try, how much I focus cs,kills,objectives. I just get certain players that go 1 kills 21 deaths. So so far in the last 6 odd games tonight every single lane I'm not in has fed so hard, its game over before lanning phase ends.

Not to mention the other 4 games with an afk, with a further 3 games being troll matches. I can destroy my lane, I can out cs my team and theirs but I cannot win a solo battle.

You'd think in 6 matches I'd get given a decent team, or at least the enemy would suffer an afk or trolls! They never seem too. Then having an afk makes no difference to me tbh, even with them the odds of winning dwindle with my sense of hope.

The strategies are always the same, push mid, push mid, push mid, I know lets drag and not push turrets. Lets focus kills over cs, lets turret dive and give free kills away. Then there's the walking around a blind jungle (happens every game), lets walk in twos at 38 minutes despite me saying "When those two die its game over". Which seems to happen more often than not... No one knowing how and when to initiate a fight, almost all initiators never initiating.

People dying 5 times in lane and still using the same tactic, push past mid and die again and again. Jungles failing to do much other than turret dive for kills while dying giving adc an advantage, then deciding they've had enough of that lane and never come back. Or failing to clear the jungle and backing after blue, which is my favourite!

Advise/ping's don't seem to alert players to anything, following your mid or pushing turret never seems to happen. Staying back and farming safely when their laner roams around like a free spirit, is the norm now. 3v5's are common trend, 2v5's are a must in each game, 1v5 is the new meta this season.

Then we have the old faithful player farming jungle when there is a team fight happening mid, totally oblivious to any form of danger.

On a plus note I haven't had single fun game where both teams are equal, its always massively unbalanced. I like playing games where I get to learn new things, like playing against someone that matches me. Not when I play, and they just don't even scrape the edges of the barrel. Getting beaten in lane is fun also, fundamental learning curve :D. It's important to play against better players, too learn new things. Poor players make you sloppy, or just make the game totally boring.

I try my best to help my team mates, even swap lanes when they're losing. So I get the hard lane, and they repay me with feeding top or mid for me also depending on where I am when swapping.

Maybe I will have to rethink my strategy to win, I will attempt a few different things over the next few weeks. Back to the winning then calling it quits and coming back later to win again, best strategy to climb. Never carrying on playing on a losing streak, always stop before going overly negative win to loss ratio. Better to be positive than negative for one day!

Bronze how I loath you so much!

No I'm not another Bronze player moaning about being in bronze, so no need to say it since I've answered your question already. Yes I know I have a lot to learn to become better No I didn't mess up placements, I went 6 to 4. No I will not be stuck in bronze forever I will how ever be stuck in silver for sometime when I get back there

I think that already answer most questions!
