So I decided to drop ranked and play normals until this mess gets fixed...

... However, I just realized something.

I have been a vivid ranked-only player for years. My normal-game MMR is incredibly low - probably somewhere low bronze in terms of ranked. And I have to say... it feels like the bronze hell all over again. People who have no clue what they are doing, toxics, the overall skill on both teams being so absolutely low it's disgusting... I have no problem with supporting, but what can I do when my adc feed 8 deaths early and then goes to troll building 4 zeals? I can't even remember the last time I've seen that in ranked. Gold League wasn't so bad after all...

Riot, your ranked dynamic queue is a joke, your normal games are a torture.

What the hell am I even supposed to play then? ARAM ONLY?

Pff, might as well quit. Congratulations, you brought an addicted player who loves this game to the point where he considers quitting.

Blame DQ for bad games... Says low elo is hell... I mean maybe you are just bad?

DQ is a problem because of people boosted by premades are uncarryable once they play solo. It's like trying to do a marathon with an iron ball strapped to your feet.

Low ELO is a problem because... well, everyone sucks so hard it's painful to watch. You don't win because you're good, you win because your team sucks less then theirs.

Those are two different things, but both result in aweful games.

Boosting is not a problem in higher elo, the number of plat3+ are almost exactly the same as last season, and any elo under plat anyways are filled with roughly the same skilled individuals. This is nothing different than last season where a smurf could carry up to gold then struggle via plat except he can do it with 4 instead of 1 more person so it's not a problem.

That's why they are still there. Bronze is a place where people can solo 1v5 carry a game with no effort. Bronze-G3 are all the same players

Then play ranked, or carry the "bronze kids" as you call them. Don't take normals super serious that is what ranked is for honestly

It's kinda hard to carry an intentional feeder. And even if I would, would that be a fun an engaging game? Me just picking a pubstomper and going wild? I want a fun game on an even level. Is that too much to ask for?

then go to ranked dude. that is for even skilled match-ups and super serious try harding games. normals no1 cares about. they mean nothing. people try sometimes others don't. some go ham so chill. Play ranked or stop crying about noramls till you win enough to put it at your MMR?
