If you can't carry bronze matches, you deserve to be bronze.

Alright, so my last match wwe played 4v6 pretty much. Our Nidalee was jungler and didnt gank a single lane, then spent most of the match running down mid and sitting in front of the opponents basae waiting to be killed. Now you're saying that I am supposed to be able to overcome that on a consistent basis and lead my team to victory anyway or else Im not worthy of silver?

That's correct.

Either you earn it by showing you have the skill necessary to defeat literally the worst players in the game... or you will remain exactly where you should be.

Do you think that's a fair system? While other playes are expected to win and move up the ladder playing 5v5, many bronze players have to try to climb out of bronze playing with a troll on their team, therefor having to climb out of bronze in 4v6 matches

Yes.

Whatever difficulties you are having, remember that every other player is having them as well. If you are better than them you will do better and rise out of the Bronze bracket.

Then tell me, why am I playing against a Diana that went 28-0 last season in bronze? Do you think that's fair too?

Yes.

Did you have an argument to present or are you just trying to evoke sympathy ?

Yes.

My argument is, if I think Im only worthy of silver or maybe even bronze, why am I playing Challenger smurfs? Diana said aftrwards thatshe was a challenger smurf...all you're doing is bashing me because Im bronze and complaining and youre not bronze....you would feel the same if you walked a day in my shoes kid..youre plat 4 and probably have never had to play a fukll season in bronze....good players exist in bronze thatdeserve to be silver or even gold...and those players are being held down by Rito because they get placed in a division where most of the players dont care about winning....heck, I just played with a rammus who is 1-13 and said he is trolling us, when really he is covering up how bad he really is...this shit is not cool, anor are the negative comments from players who dont have to play in bronze

Dominick Destine1 votes

Whether a player is a smurf or not is irrelevant.

They will rise out of bronze and reach their appropriate bracket level. If you are skilled you will do the same.

all you're doing is bashing me

Show me a single quote of me bashing you.

I await.

"Did you have an argument to present or are you just trying to evoke sympathy ?" --passive aggressive comment suggesting that I'm asking for pity

"That's correct.

Either you earn it by showing you have the skill necessary to defeat literally the worst players in the game... or you will remain exactly where you should be." You know Im in B5, and this comment says that you think it's where I should be.

I have a great idea! Now, I know you won't put your money where your mouth is, but I'll suggest it anyway. Lets duo a match together. I'll play the role of the troll and you carry your team to victory with me trolling. After you do that, then tell me how easy or hard it is to win in bronze (the players you said were literally the worst players in LoL).** So, you willing to put your money where your mouth is and duo with me and play 4v6 AND carry your team to victory with me helping the other team?** I'd be surprised if you accepted this challenge because I'm pretty sure you know its a difficult task to carry what you consider the worst players in all of LoL. _If you did accept my challenge and weren't able to carry to victory, not only would your arguments be invalid, but I bet you'd come up with a bunch of excuses why you werent able to carry to victory _the way you say I should be able to if I'm a silver or gold caliber player.....

so, challenge accepted Dominick Destine?

Those kinds of players are not exclusive to bronze, they exist all thoughout the game, especially in high elo. Watch any streamer, youll see trolls.

I feel your pain. I don't understand either.

So you've pretty much wasted your time and money if you purchase RP to buy champs/skins with if you do poorly in ranked in your first ranked season because Riot makes it disturbingly difficult to move out of bronze...its as if they want you to create new accounts that you level to 30 and completely disregard your old account because they wont let you move out of bronze no matter how well you play

Tyrone Lannister1 votes

LOLOLOL ok how money you've spent should NEVER factor into ranking. Sorry if this sounds harsh but theres a reason you're in B5. If you want to improve you need to work at it. Don't expect to be carried to gold.

A b4 to a b5 drop isnt exactly worth complaining about.... Were you expecting to be placed higher than you finished?

Well, when I go 8-2 in my promos, I would have expected at least to go up to B1

Vanjie1 votes

What was your placement last season?

BurstDmg1 votes

I was b4 at the end of last season

Boomerangbro1 votes

The way they see it, is that the better you are, the more likely you are to carry others to higher ranks, thus setting you at a lower rank.

BurstDmg1 votes

SO Im being penalized for doing well in my promo's dand because I was B4 last season?

BEEP84hc581 votes

Yes...they don't care about the players, only making more money. The way they see it is, if you haveto create a new account because you bought a lot of skins, you will become just as vested in your new account and buy more skins...that way they can double-dip customers by not allowin them to move up if they improve their play over time

Before you do something rash, add your vote to this poll that consolidates player feelings about the placement changes this season, and we'll see what happens. http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/esports/zMtcJoEu-poll-will-you-sit-this-season-out

Nothing will happen. The complainers come out every year and every year riot ignores them.

Because 99% of them will keep playing. L

Placements didn't change though. They're the exact same bullshit they were last year.

I have not done Ranked this season but maybe Riot is using your personal performance (you know that rank you get at the end of the match S,-S,A,-A, ect) So that those that are carried are not placed in ranks they cant compete in.
