Getting flood by silver in bronze. Possible proof that ELO Hell is a conspiracy.

I'm having an issue justifying this one to MMR. I was just in a game in which 3 of 5 opponents where silver and my entire team was bronze. Here below is a screenshot of the games results. I researched all team member names on http://na.op.gg.

Game Link: http://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/2155427206/34373539?tab=overview

Here are the profiles for the opposing team. http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=mere Silver 5 http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=IIemnuelII Bronze 2 http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=liberty+dogs Silver 5 http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=enjoyingg Bronze 1 http://na.op.gg/summoner/champions/userName=armadillojackal Silver 5

Now, the profiles for my team http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=seniorcheesycake Bronze 2 http://na.op.gg/summoner/champions/userName=zerofatburger Bronze 2 http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=medoc Bronze 1 http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=selbbup Bronze 2 http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=selbbup Bronze 1

Here is another Game Link: http://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/2151968646/34373539?tab=overview

http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=+BarrenCity SILVER 1 (6 Divisions higher than the lowest summoner on my team) http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=+CLG+Arkese Unranked http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=+Discount+Xpeke69 Bonze 4 http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=+McDustyy Unranked http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=+BrokenTown Bronze 2

http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=Kinato+Keaton Bronze 2 http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=VindictiveIntent Unranked http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=Someguyrb Silver 5 http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=Sohcahtoa82 Bronze 2

Can someone please explain to me how the matchmaker would justify these game ever being made?

I'm in gold 2 and I have players that were diamond last season that are in lower divisions of plat. Tons of players higher then me, you should be happy your fighting a higher mmr player, you'll get acostomed to it and will improve. That's why you play ranked right? To improve?

Oh, having higher tiers isn't the problem. It's when the majority of the team has a higher tier or when one person has a tier that is nearly two leagues ahead. The only thing you can do in those situations is pray you do everything right long enough to stall a game. Do you know what happens when a Silver 1 gets into a pack of bronze 2s? A triple kill at least.

It becomes like your name, Stop Feeding Mid, but they don't because they aren't used to fighting players that punish every misstep.

Really? I have a picture that shows summoner names in a positive post that gets taken down and this guy gets to link everyones profiles???

Sometimes it takes time to remove posts like these. There's no automated system for the boards, just real people.

Just inform the OP that names are not allowed and report the post for incorrect board.

You ignored the Silver 1 vs. Bronze 2. The point is a system that allows a near mid tier bronze to fight a borderline gold is broken somehow.

Unranks make sense because they could have any skill level. They could be bronze, or diamonds in the rough. But when the ranks are clearly defined, there shouldn't be 6 tier discrepancies.

When I say unranked I mean no knowledge of how the game works. The syndra built manamune and angelic scepter... That kind of unranked. Unranked Annie, didn't know how to ping, fed mid super hard. That kind of unranked.

Which I agree is super lame. Now imagine someone 6 tiers higher feasting on your entire bot lane for 20 minutes, kind of like when you have an unranked syndra building a manamune. You can't save everyone and someone on the enemy team becomes a monster as a result. We're clearly experiencing the same frustration here.

Those silver players have honestly probably tanked their mmr, I know I have recently so I mean, it happens man. Plus dynamic queue allows for silvers to queue with multiple bronze players or visa versa.
