Nonreasonable Skill

I'm going to throw this out there because this has bugged me ever since I started playing League of Legends years ago. I dislike it how your skill on this game isn't even based much off of your actual skill. Yes, I know this is a team game. I just hate how if you get unlucky and get matched up with bad players then it brings your skill level down in League. For example, if you're trying to slowly climb up the ladders in ranked and so happen to get unlucky quite a bit with match making then it keeps you from ranking up. Then there's playing normal matches and getting matched up with negative, afk, rage quitting and intentionally feeding players then it lowers your normal ELO. I'm not going to lie, I've had my fair share of reports on this game due to negative attitude but I believe that I have came a long way since then. There are still times where I have several bad matches in a row and get bummed out but I'm pretty sure that's common. I'm sometimes the type of player that tries to encourage other players to keep their head up, not give up and keep on trying because a match can always turn around. I just get so tired of people judging my skill off my ELO or rank when sometimes I barely play ranked or don't have the time to slowly climb my way up to gold and above. It's definitely not easy nowadays to carry yourself in League like it used to be. Having one bad player can easily bring your whole team down. I personally believe that I'm a good player, I just hate how my skill isn't based much off of my skill in this game and how frustrating it can be to be stuck in low ELO or rank. I know I might get some bad feedback because there are always the negative people out there but I might as well see what happens with this post.
