Why I Have No Issue With Missions that Handicap You

Tldr: low elo games are a coin toss so really what summoner you take into the game has no relevance to the outcome.

When finding a team for the melee mission, which can be accomplished quite easily thanks to the boards, I was dreading the difficulty of winning with a troll team comp of only melees. However, I did not account for the fact my mmr would be brought down to what was essentially silver or bronze, resulting in me steamrolling bot lane as darius. I felt a little bad about the skill discrepancy but then I remembered this would not have happened if riot did not make this quest so I absolved myself of any guilt.

All in all I would say a positive attitude was more important than individual skill, and I made that clear before the start of the game. "Okay team, no raging, that's what riot wants, don't let them win."

Puts on tin foil hat*

Anyways, this is all just a sick experiment from riot to collect statistics from off meta games, just like how the bilgewater event was an experiment to test off meta items on a large scale (deadmans plate anyone?).

Not everyone is low elo.
