Ranking System
Riot, you really need to fix the ranking system. I'm pretty much quitting ranked because I play ranked because I want to see how good I can do, but although I feel my play has drastically improved from last season to this, I have actually dropped a division from silver 4 to silver 5 and am currently playing Bronze 2's because of my MMR. Let me tell you something. You're ranking system has nothing to do with how good each individual summoner actually is. It has to do with what kind of teammates you are stuck with and how good the enemy team is. You're ranking system is focused around if you can carry 4 bad teammates or if the enemies are just better as a team.
We shouldnt be able to lose LP because a game was close. If my team gets both nexus turrets down but somehow manages to lose the game, why does that take away 20LP? Close games like that you should only lose ~10. I've won games in which I've done bad, I've lost games in which I've done good, but it always seems like it is just too hard to improve ranking unless you deserve to be 2 tiers higher than you are. Even if you get to promotion series, it just adds more pressure on you and you probably won't win it. Besides to get to the promo series you have to win pretty much 2 games in a row. What are the odds of winning even more games in a row?
