One game didn't get you demoted. It may have been what pushed you over, but your overall performance across many games determines your mmr and you get demoted when your mmr falls a whole Tier below your rank. If you're in gold 4 and losing Games at silver 2 mmr, you probably shouldn't be gold 4.

It's easy to blame losing on others, but the only constant in all of your games is you. The system obviously isn't perfect, it's impossible to show who played well and who played poorly and adjust accordingly when you're in a team game that may require sacrifices in order to pull a win. My last win, my 4 teammates all died while I was shooting the nexus and got the win. They would probably have disengaged if they'd be punished for dying since we'd have probably won eventually anyways, but keeping the fight active so I couldn't get focused while taking the nexus was the right move.

Humans generally are pretty hot headed. Having a team in general that makes you lose MMR is a horrible feeling. Getting demoted really doesn't mean much unless you go down from like Gold to Silver or Platinum to Gold. In that case, you lost WAY too many games to be upset at anyone else lol

As much as i feel for you - you didn't get demoted because of that game, you got demoted cause you lost a lot of games. just keep trying and you will come back if you are positive player who plays well.

I lost 13 games in a row went from Gold 4 with 40 LP to Gold 5 0 LP but I wasn't toxic I just stopped playing cleared my head played some norms. Shit happens. Can't be mad at things you can't change.

Being fed =/= doing well. Having a negative score =/= doing badly.

Any game where I'm level 6 and the first tower still stands, I count myself as doing well. (If I'm not 0-3).

Kda doesn't determine if you're having a good game or not. I recall a Fiora top game I had. I wanted mid, but some kid cried about always having feeders lose mid, this and that. Well, leaving lane I was 3-0 with both the enemy top towers taken, and the talon was like 8-4 or something like that, but had none of the enemy mid turrets taken, all the while losing his own turret(s). Skip ahead a while into the game, I ended up being like 6-7-5 or something of the equivalent with all 3 of my opponents top turrets taken, damage to the inhib, plus I took both mid turrets while he was roaming for champion farm. I had 240 farm to his 190. I was level 18 with a near full build, and he was level 16 also with a near full build. Talon was like 19-8 or 20-9 (something like that) at this point. One more team fight and we would've won, but the talon decides to rush in 1v5, get decimated, and began blaming me for not following. We lose the game. Talon cries "Can't carry everything". I proceeded to tell him kills don't win games, towers do.

If your teammates are doing horrible kda wise, but are taking towers, don't blame them. It's time for you to step up and take responsibility.

no i meant that i was winning lane, roaming, getting objectives, and my supp was afk, while my 1-9 jax was suiciding under turret while my cait was typing every 2 seconds. yup really a 5v5 this one was.
