PvP Match-ups are hopelessly Ruined. Only ever able to get 1 win out of 10.

Ancient League··2 votes·934 views

Something needs to be done about the PvP skill match ups in game. There is no way people should be allowed to lose +6 games in a row unless they are purposely trying to throw the game. A game takes on average 1/2 hour to play minimum. That no victories in 3-4 hours of game play?!? Okay I suck at this game, Ill admit it right off the bat, but there is seldom a great battle where I have a chance to win. I would start a new account if that made a difference just to enjoy a victory once in a while but the game is full of smurfs. As a Single player with no friends to play with here, I get really tired of totally getting repeatedly destroyed by obviously Pre-made teams of Headphone wearing players who laugh as they take ultimate joy in what they are doing .. Bot games are worthless because you have not come up with a smart bot that can give me a challenge. Premade games give no IP so they are worthless as well .. Playing ARAM games I get 1 victory out of 4 on a good day.

IF ANY PLAYER HAS MORE THEN 2 OR MORE WINS IN A ROW THEY SHOULD BE PLACED IN A QUE THAT GETS HARDER TO GET A VICTORY FROM.

I have played games from longer then most here .. One of the first games I played was Subspace/Continuum. That game used to have +2000 players across +10 zones. Now its hard to find 200 across 3 zones. The main reason is because new players need to be cultivated by matchups with players of similar skill levels. Subspace will just Die off one day because the people who play it will Die off. Without a Middle ground where LVL 30 players of equal skill can be matched together LOL will see a similar fate.

Fix this or suffer the fate of many other games.

Somebody has to lose. How do you know someone on the opposite team hadn't lost more games in a row when he beat you? Are you sitting down and stalking all the opponent's profiles?

You don't seem to understand how the matchmaking system works...

If you have players who are on a winning streak move on to harder opponents you will still be on your losing streak. Nothing will change for someone who already cannot win, you will be against opponents of similar skill and teamed up with allies of similar skill. It may not seem like it but if you look up all 9 other players in your game you will find they are in fact of a similar skill to you. On top of this premades are more often than not matched against other premades. You will occasionally get put against a premade as a solo player, but you will likely have a premade on your side as well.

Just practice your mechanics and work on good gameplay habits.

If you're winning 1/10 over the long run, you're doing a lot very wrong.

I've had one streak where I lost 9/10. I was probably the best player on the map (and definitely on my team) in 7 or 8 of those. That said, I've also gone on winning streaks where I maintain over a 70% win rate over 20+ Games. It balances out, and my overall w/l is around 54%.

All I can say, is you must have hit a point where you were winning either due to being carried by smurfs or getting bad opponents or who knows what and your mmr went way above what it should have. You're now in a period of correction where you're worse than others at your mmr and hence losing most of your games. It will eventually even out, the system seems pretty decent at finding the 50% mark (even if many individual Games are hopelessly lopsided - maybe these are intentional to see if a group of low mmr players on a winning streak are better than a group of high mmr players on a losing streak to make a big correction).

Also, TILTing is real. When you lose, you play worse. Even though I took breaks over my worst losing stretch and still played well in most of those games, I made mistakes that I never make in a few of those games (e.g. wrong masteries, forgot to use a summoner spell that could have Saved me, etc...). Maybe consider taking a break from playing for a couple days and come back with a fresh head and try to right your course. Or play a few bot Games to restore confidence in your mechanics.

Started playing at 8:30 am and now its 1:30 pm lost 6 in a row. I guess there is nothing wrong with this except me ?

How can anyone continue to play this game with these stats and call it NOT broken? If I lose 3 in a row I should be placed in a fight with weaker and weaker people so I don't have to waste Hours trying to get a victory.

There should be a system were a lower skilled Player like me ONLY gets matched with similar skilled players.

I should be able to Opt in or out of such a system if I choose not have to constantly get destroyed without any chance of a Victory until someone is charitable enough to AFK or "Give" me a chance. Thats BS!

F you. Learn to play better like the rest of us did. Further, the majority of the player base hovers around Bronze 2. Stop acting like you're getting matched against LCS teams.

I don't want to matched up against Pre-made teams at all. The whole concept is broken. I should be able to wait 15min if i want to to make sure that I dont matched up against Premade teams.

FYI i just won my first game 5 hours after starting .. 2 AFKs surrendered at 20 BS victory.

Can Anyone direct me to a game that gives me the chance to fight a Great Battle?
