Autofill, Snowball gameplay & low elo matchmaking dont blend quite well.

Climbing is just awful this season. season 6 had its day with dynamic queue but you know what ? at least i was given several opportunities to win in a match. Now its literally racing to match your opponents lead or you don't matter at all. The infernal drake is low key OVER powered and for a permanent buff it decides too many games. Oh the enemy team got infernal drake? no biggie right ? lets check the simple math here..

"Infernal Tribute" grants 8 / 16 / 24% (+50% if they have Mark of the Elder Dragon) increased attack damage and ability power.

Just 8% right ? whats 8 times 5? 40 = 40% overall bonus damage your facing when the enemy is fully grouped

2 infernal okay whats 16 times 5? 80

3? 24 times 5? 120

Cancerous drake = unhealthy out comes, it turns "Skill" into "Chance".

Before we just got tilting players who gave up or were bad. Now with auto fill combined with the snow ball meta the bad players that we get on our teams are just that more punishing now.

  • They tilt much faster than season 6 or 5.
  • They give up immediately after dying the 2nd or 3rd time.
  • Low Elo players make mistakes the most and this meta punishes mistakes even more ! making it harder to carry when your team mates do feed.
  • Auto fill also influencing the out come of matches and promoting troll behavior in so many degrees.
  • Contested elemental drakes.
  • Allies wont follow / listen to pings even if spammed to appropriate degree.
  • Map awareness is nonexistent ESPECIALLY the jungler you will get people boasting about their win rate %% on jg champ then in game they will ignore every pushed lane and give up every fking dragon SO if i want a decent JG i have to go JG myself do everything myself OR the enemy JG will out perform my jungle which happens every match.

Just how do you expect someone to climb steadily ?? it seems like you must over perform to actually climb like if your bronze then you must be performing like a gold player, if your sliver you must have plat instincts or its GG.. This is honestly what it is this season i have watched plenty of LS coaching videos, watched high elo streamers and watched some of their coaching too. Now im not really making that much mistakes in game unless i get auto filled and forced to played something im not good at. We need a easier experience to climb Riot just for low elo.

If a team gives up 2-3 fire drakes they probably deserve a loss, because it even gives you a 5 min warning of what it's going to be before it spawns so you should be playing around that. And I like that when people constantly make mistakes, they are punished for it. I don't like seeing retarded comebacks off of one mistake that the winning team has made at baron. Imo nobody should be climbing unless they are able to have a significant impact on every game, and that's the way it is right now. You have a good winrate with Shaco yet you are not using him to climb in your match history, he is pretty good in silver elo. This is a strategy game and the best team always wins, rarely does a team with less skill end up winning despite their many mistakes a better team would be capitalising on
