Greetings all,

I am not complaining or anything, but the matchmaking system is nuts! how come Good "Random" players gather and Inexperienced PLayers "randomly" gather? this is not fair for the oppo team. there should be extra variables that should be involved in the matching making system. NOBODY wants to be on the opposite team. Experience average games. Bronze and Iron ranked games are becoming a black hole for players. I have played with and against GOLD players in bronze how is that fair for those people that are really in that elo? Get smashed 31 to 0? the MMS is making people mad and thrashing each other I am trying to explain to the oppo team who got smashed that there are more experienced players in the game, but they would not understand and keeps thrashing his teammates. My only suggestion is to make provisional games available for players on demand like pay 10.000 BE to try provisional games again or 20.000 so low elo won't try to get in where they don't belong and better players go to where they really belong. something like that, no?
What do you think? How could this problem be fixed? Any thoughts comments?

Matchmaking is BS and this mostly because of the hidden MMR

Neither support building tier 2 or higher supp item on a 20 min game, Grasp Azir support with TP, Caitlyn rushing shiv, yep, this is definitely Iron-Bronze elo. Rank honestly doesn't paint the entire picture, I'm currently Gold 3 and climbing, and I've met Plat 1 players getting absolutely crushed by Silver 3s in my games.

I'm not saying matchmaking isn't broken nor that Rank doesn't reflect skill but unless your trends show that you're stuck where you are currently ranked in, it's hard to differentiate between good and bad players. Hell, if you hadn't snowballed hard as a jungler they might have completely crushed you. For what i can see it wasn't your teammates being good and the enemies bad but rather you playing really well and pushing your team that was evenly matched with the enemy team forward.

Nobody making changes at Riot plays in the black hole they call iron/bronze so they don’t care. Your best chance is to friend a smurf early in the season when people are making their bronze to diamond vids. Even if you are the “lucky” ones to make it to diamond you get the privilege of trying to grind 16lp wins/20lp losses with a 65% win rate. The whole system is broke, anyone who plays the game knows this.

Those champs that are easily abuse still take a little bit of skill. And even that thats only going to get you so far. At gold you are going to run into players who know how to deal with those champs.
