Hey guys, recently I have been going against people 10x my skill level in norms and its really frustrating. I am currently silver 5 and its just so anoyying going against plat and diamond players, playing with their bum ass friends. Is riot implementing a fix to this whole situation because i just play the game for fun and I cant even do that when im going against these higher tier players. Riot needs to fix this because this is insanely broken and im tired of this shit lmao.

If a diamond wants to play with their bronze/silver friends, normals is the place to do it.

It's not clear that they should try to prevent it (people would just smurf anyway), and normals aren't really supposed to be all that competitive anyway, and more a place to play more relaxed games with friends.

If you want to face players around your skill level, ranked is the place for it. MMR mixing is always going to be a thing in normals, so the key there is to try not to be intimidated by the high skill players (and ideally even try to learn from them), and get fed off their monkey friends they brought with them that resulted in you being in the same match with them.

Norms is too competitive for me, there no room for error. Even if I'm vs some new bot lane they wont trade or anything until their big shot diamond smurf jg comes then theyre all in. Soloque is the only place where I have a chance to show off my skill and feel like im doing well. You might need a second account lv 30 so you can play soloque casually. It's just no fun playing solo vs teams of coordinated smurfs.

It's impossible to fix. Normals are casual so players are allowed to queue with anyone they want.

It's normals, who cares.
