Ok 'its just norms' is not an excuse. The enemy team has 5 competent high silver/ mid gold players. my self and 3 others have a brain. And then there is this person , I really dont like bashing people because theyre bad , trust me, ive been there... But this adc i had , didnt know how to play the game. I checked hes bronze 3... Why is there a bronze 3 on my team , im gold 3 bro (on the account i was playing). Dont go lower than silver.... and i dont even want to mention this person i had who already had the prestigious iron. The poor lad couldnt kite , went 0-9 , finally got 2 kills but died 15 times. It was a 4v5 , and 2 people kept voting no to ff. She wasnt having fun , and getting one shot by an elise and fed trist definetely wasnt fun. Make it balanced somehow , please. This keeps happening , norms shouldnt be take super seriously but , when your bot has a combination of 17 deaths in 20 mins , not amount of optimism will help you have fun in that situation. The only good experience from that game was watching the godly kennen on my team try to 1v9.

Remember that MMr and Elo systems are not inherently accurate at any give game. its numbers over time. Next up, MMR is by que. The teams MMR in normal gets Hella screwed by groups that are throwing MM off.

Just made a big ass post on matchmaker systems so here is a shameless plug for that. Check it out if you have the time. https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/AspzzwlH-confused-by-matchmaker-join-me-to-learn-more-about-elo-and-mmr-systems

Totally agree. If "its just norms" means it's cool to suck so hard that you lose more than half of your matches...find a lava lamp to stare at. Casual is fine. Losing 10 games in a row because of retards like this? Ruins the game.

there was a dev post yesterday that ranked match making is all messed up and they know about it. wouldnt doubt the same issued followed to norms. Good thing is they acknowledged the issue and at least working on ranked
