I'm Giving Up on Ranked for the Season

Just a rant that no one ever asked for and probably won't care about:

As I try and try this weekend to pull myself out of Silver 2 into Gold V... I realized that it wasn't worth it. Even though Sivir is my favorite ADC, and I love the victorious skin (and that she is getting some love), I just don't have the energy anymore. Nonstop since Wednesday I've been slaving these ranked games. And in high silver, it's a coin toss on what happens. Sometimes I do poorly, sometimes teammates do, sometimes team comps are better, sometimes there's an afk, etc.

All in all, I realized that it was becoming unhealthy. I only started playing ranked 1 month ago, so I really was not allowing enough time to relax and feel unstressed going into ranked, as I would've done throughout the year. A part of me knows there is the chance I could get to Gold (if I gave myself a year, I believe I could do it) But at this point, I don't think I would feel good about it anymore. More just ashamed I let myself get this carried away.

TLDR; I gave up, and you know what? I think I'm ready for this game to be fun again. summoner 4 To normals and ARAM I go!

Elo is a stupid system to begin with (even for 1v1 let alone 5v5 randoms).

I feel you 100% Im ending the season at Silver 3. I just can't deal with it anymore. Team builder and arams. Good luck next season!

Just enjoy the rest of the season. Normals are fun. There are other sivir skins that are nice anyway (warden sivir is pretty similar and many people think better).

I have Specatacular, which I very much like. And I just played my first ARAM in awhile, and loved it!

Nice! I didn't even realize Spectacular Sivir was a skin that must be an old one haha.

Season 6 looks kinda weird anyway, I might just play normal as well haha and im platinum saying that. Riot kinda pulling a RS to me, changing the game too much. With the new teambuilder, I might jsut have fun playing normal since the game wont be optimal to me anymore
