So I can't play solo queue just because I'm bronze?

Blåbæret··7 votes·738 views

Why? Why do I have to deal with toxic premades ruining my gaming experience? I don't want to play with or against premades. I barely play ranked because in 90% of my games I've had to deal with either troll premades on my own team or a coordinated premade on the other team making it impossible to win.

Gunna have to agree with Swiftstrike4 on this one, as much as people would like to blame their bad ranks on others, most the time it's not true.

Stop worrying about other players and learn to better yourself.

Also if it's a 5 man group of bronze players you're vs you'll prob only see them once and if they are all bronze they are there for a reason (Hint: The aren't good) and there's no amount of verbal communication that can fix the fact that they will tower dive at level 1-3, Feed, refuse to alter their build for the current circumstances, can't CS if their life depended on it, etc..

in the short term it can* (under 50 games) be because of other team mates.

but in the long run like 300+ games, then it is you.


@ OP

unfortunately theres nothing we can do about it, unless you want to invite 4 friends and play you will be stuck with pregroups and yes it sucks for solo players. but its the ultimatum riot has given us. we complain and complain but riot doesn't care, they cant be seen as incompetent and go back on something they've already heavily invested into despite being told by everyone it doesn't work and its not what people want.

riots even stated they're looking to make some seriously heavy changes about ranking come season 7.

Say you're doing your 10 placement matches, which is what decides your initial rank per season, the first 3 games count the most the rest count less but still count. If you have less than 100 CS as ADC/Mid/Top/JG and the game is at 45 minutes, clearly you're going to lose MMR/Points w/e because you're not doing what your supposed to be doing REGARDLESS of your teammates.

and losing sure it can def be because your team mates are trolling or having bad games, but to say that 90% of his games are nothing but troll premades and commenting on the fact that he's bronze. It's safe to assume that he is just looking for something to blame his poor play on.

that could very well be true, but math says short term = possibly screwed up, to anyone.

the definitive answer is for him to keep playing and we will see what happens in the long run.

my 10 placements i ended up 2-8 and in silver 4 ( had 2 dcs and 3 feeders), i climbed to gold 3 skipping silver 3, and gold 4. in a total of the next 40 games. am i that awesome sauce? or was i luckily carried? neither can be proven unless i play way more games.

Yes, you're right, but it's also safe to say that his biggest complaint being he's queue'd into or with nothing but premades most likely isn't true.

Hell Rito has the statistics on this, and the information is available to use based on checking our match history and looking at other players history to see if in fact there were any premades.

I personally don't care either way, I know that I've been in a premade of 5 and we still lost because we were being awful players plain and simple. You can beat premades, they tend to be more cocky because they feel safer.

How about Riot giving ranked points as individuals skill.... That is the evolution of ranked whihc is MORAL and PURE JUSTICE.

Because it's a team game and you should be working with your teammates?

Teamates that troll?? HAHAHAHHA you must be a comedian.

If all team mates do nothing but troll, why do you even play? If everyone in LoL is just a troll why keep queueing? Why not find a game you can play by yourself? You shouldn't be rewarded just for participating, if your team lost then that sucks you don't get a trophy.

Try to get your team to cooperate and win successfully without being toxic!

It's not about winning or losing dudes, it's about the fact that playing with or against premades isn't enjoyable.

That's the thing if you had never come to the Boards and read the cesspool of complains about pre-mades you probably wouldn't have known that anyone was grouped anyway.

I don't go into my matches saying "/all are any of you in a premade????" do you?

yeah and playing WITH them is a LOT worse than playing AGAINST them in lower elo. i don't care if my opponents have a premade.. but if OUR team has the premade of 3 or 4.. its almost a guaranteed loss.. because not only will they not communicate with anyone outside of their premade. BECAUSE they are in a premade they are generally lower elo's players than solo players because that's how riots tries to "balance" dynamic que.

Probably check you opponents history. You are not playing against or with, as many premades as you think. Especially in Bronze.

Dude you need all the help you can get id you wanna climb out bronze. Riot's literally shoving premades in your face because they think climbing out of elo hell is more important than playing solo thru it. So man up get some friends and ill see you in silver
