Solo queue is not fun

Can someone explain to me why there are so many trolls and rage quitters in silver? For the past week i cant seem to enjoy playing ranked. Its always the same story: someone is last pick and trolls as (from what I've experienced) Garen support with revive and cleanse, Renekton support who says that we shouldve given him top to avoid him trolling, or instalocking adc when the spot has been taken buy first pick. Other times i see a teammates argue in queue and subsequently we lose because the battle of egos never ceases. I try to be a peace keeper but to little avail because they turn on me( what did i do? i'm matched with sociopaths all the time :/ ), so now i just stay silent and from now on i dodge because its better to lose 3 lp than 22 lp when your trying follow the summoner's code. I thought the reason that i cant climb was because i was on tilt or i belong in silver 5, but i feel this problem is hindering my enjoyment of league as a whole. I only find solace when i play against the AI since the chances of finding toxic players is .1%. Also, the bots actually buy wards often... that says a lot about humans in solo queue.

The best way, i find, to avoid situations like that is to duo with someone you know won't troll/rage/afk. That will ensure 2 out of 5 players wil be playing hard :)

FOr the rest, you can't really garuntee nor expect anything ;(

What I do while duoing is play Jungler with a solo laner and play as if it's 2v5. :) that should be an easy way out of silver :)

hello there, peaked g1 last season. Placed in bronze 1, went on 8 game winning streak, in series 2 wins.

Then next 2 games I win my lane hard, I'm literally 3 levels above my laner in top...

Mid goes 1/5 and afks... both games except the first one was 0/4

"Please play safe, I'm fed. I'll carry as long as you don't feed"

They just afk, and afk. Then while 4v5 one person on the team proclaims "WE CAN WIN GUYS... OUR TOP LANER IS THE ONLY ONE WITH KILLS"

This whole "There is an equal chance for them to have the trolls than you" thing is bull. Right now out of ALL the games they've only had 1 troll. Out of the amount i've had.

But riot won't ban them
