Are the current matchmaking algorithms updated? I really don't think it should consider total wins within a division because each game is unique and has too many in-game factors that aren't taken into consideration when it's just summed up into a total number.

If skilled players are being stacked in one team in gold 1, imagine how rough it is in higher elo where the player-pool is even smaller for the algorithms to factor in. It's honestly pretty discouraging.

Unlucky

There's no telling how tilted someone is / rough of a day they're having that might affect their solo q performance.

One lane defeated is enough to inch the enemy miles ahead if the victor knew how to use his advantage.

I doubt there will ever be a point in league where one sided games don't exist.

It's been happening like every other game for me at this point :\

I can see where you're coming from.

Rarely have I've played games where both teams are even or not ridiculously fed. It's either you or them.

Since 6.24 it's felt like this I think, maybe even earlier.

But the way I view low elo, is that everyone has the potential to become as good as a Diamond+ player or whatever. Because it's so easy to abuse players in that MMR bracket, there's really no excuse when other players can hold 65, 70, 75, 80% win rates. And I wouldn't bet that it was luck.

Yeah I noticed after Season 6 too.
