PLATINUM things. (salt alert)

Sup boards, p4 support main here, wanting to get better at game.

Recently i got to p4 after a good winning streak (hard games, easy games - had both), only to be constatly dropping from it due to some teammates calling "open mid" after they died 2 times, going deep/overextending or just being toxic cuz they didn't carry cuz of team being boosted or smth (team performs well).

Even though it was quite pleasant experience getting there, reality is that every time i get p4 it becomes overwhelmingly bad experience. Ofc, i'm far from being good and there's still a lot to learn, but the thing is:

  • With higher elo i would expect to get at least decent teammates who can have their heads cool even if they're behind.

Sure every once in a while there's a losing streak hitting each and everyone, but come on, why does my ADC or good Mid or for that sake - any good teammate has to suffer just because some Johny "silver-in-the-head-deserve-diamond" Butthead constantly provides enemy with overall advatage and blames everyone for not understanding his "Grand Challenger Plans" on "feed/tilt to win" strategies?

I'm not that kind of a guy who says that it's teammate's fault durning the game or even after, but these situations where you try your hardest, while other guy just goes all bitchy-itchy mode is quite annoying to deal with

To all D5+ guys (especially support mains) please tell if that was a thing when you climbed (Durning p5-p1)? (Thank you in advance) [zombie-brand-mindblown] **P.S. Yes i'm quite salty. ** P.P.S. It's my first post like this on boards, tried to keep it consistent. Also sorry to all Johns out there.

This must be that sodium-free salt that I heard tell about.

well you can continue to care about rank and not enjoy playing due to your rank and the hell that exist or you can jump on my train of thought and fuk rank dont play it at all and play normals to enjoy the game

0 rank games played this season, 15 in s5 was silver. a total of about 58 rank games since season 4. but im told im bad, i dont understand the game and scared to play rank.

i have +2200 wins outside of rank

Ok sure but why1 votes

at least people can leave low plat

After winning streak you get a worse teammates as a forced 50% win rate package.

Of course people will tell you its not true.
