The ranked system has gotten so out of hand. In a gold game I get paired with a level 29 player......lvl 29 not even in placements yet...hmmmmm went from g4 to s3 in 2 days every game paired with multiple bronze player while the opposition has all s1 or s2 players Im about to quit this game sick of this shit. was in gold almost all year and now all of a sudden Ive lost 18 out of my last 20 games because the opposition has a way higher elo then my team, this is not once in a while this is EVERY GAME.

It either wasn't ranked or wasn't a level 29 player.

You need to stop playing after 3 consecutive lost. Golden rule after losing a game, ask your self if your mad, upset, heated, angry, or feeling any type of negative energy. If yes than go do something to help you feel fresh before starting the next game. Play chmapions you know your good at and only stick with your best champs.

Level 29 players can’t play ranked. Whatever website you are using to look up players isn’t working properly.

18 losses? Bro stop playing ranked if you lose two in a row. Seriously, this is how you rack up insane lose streaks.

Yep I got to G4 promos (in S1) and because I had a 6 game winning streak Riot started stacking afkers and S2, B4 Duos where one or both would feed so bad it was unwinnable. Skill has nothing to do with getting out of silver. Trying to get back to S2 now. GG Riot Skinner Box

Well in the last 5 ranked games you've had, it seems like the teams were pretty equal in terms of everyone's ranks. The only 2 outliers was your very last game as Amumu with the bronze 1 Yasuo, but considerring you're silver 3 right now, that's not too far off from your rank.

The other time you had an unranked level 47 Tryndamere on your team, but it was balanced out by the bronze 4 on the other team.

Maybe all that crazy stuff in your post happens at game 6 onwards though.

I'm positive this is due to the que rate going down. Yeah people are more likely to be found with the new system, but thats because it's pulling from divisions it shouldnt be. What would you rather have, a fast que up time to get into a game that you waste 20-40 minutes on with blowouts with terrible players on one side or the other, or a balanced and fair fight that takes a little longer to get into que?

For me it's the ladder and riot's decision to improve the que time was nothing but a detriment to the game as a whole.

Shoulda not played ranked after losing so much in gold.

You need to update the level 29 account if your on Op.GG. The que is not unlocked so they cant play with you so the Op.GG data is likely out of date.

Same thing. Im plat 3 and I had a match where all my team were plat 4-2(Which is normal) but 3 out of 5 in the enemy team were diamond 1 or 2 and they were also master last season. How are we suppose to win such match.

You are not alone in this I had the same shit you experienced but I wen from g2 to s4 and back in g4 again and grinding again ... I made month pause in ranked because it was too tilting to play the garbage matchmaking simulator

Eedat9/28/2019, 10:07:27 PM1 votes

I'm looking through your op.gg and the reason you are getting matched with B1 players is because your MMR is low Silver. B1-S3 is what you are being matched with and against. Thats also why you got demoted from G4 to S1 and fell so quickly. It's actually incredibly difficult to get demoted between full tiers. It lets you stay in 4 divisions far too long. By the time you fell from Gold it was like a dam bursting. You MMR was already low Silver and once you lost the insane amount of protection you get in 4 divisons, you were just playing catchup at that point. Your rank means literally nothing to matchmaking. MMR does. Yes, you were being matched with low silver and B1 players, but you were also playing against them

Actually man just stop playing. Playing while tilted is how hashinshin dropped from grandmasters to diamond 1.

I have sworn myself to stop Ranked, till Preseason/Season 10 begins, honestly. It is such a joke... Games in Platinum/Diamond Elo... xD And lets not talk about Promo games... LMAO! Most 'Rigged' things I've seen ever... xD

How'd they play ranked before reaching level 30?!?!

Neptunia xoxo9/29/2019, 6:06:02 PM1 votes

You can't queue ranked at level 29, If anything he was a fresh level 30 that was not updated yet and early placements are high silver/gold normally so him being in that game is pretty normal. If you deserve to be higher ranked then continue queueing and eventually you will climb but the system is toxic yes and it's because you have to deal with 4 other random players and the mmr system is pretty messed up annnnnnd let's not forget that Riot has a system that tries to make any game "balanced" by trying to force every player to have a 50% win rate which causes a coin flip like feeling when queueing.

The ranked system can drive you crazy at times but its kinda fine. Let me explain it to you this way. You win and lose , sometimes the system gives you the better team and you win, its testing you if you are "that bad" and if you lose those kind of games - well thats bad. Sometimes the system is testing you on the other side, you are the one with the worst team, and the question is - "Can you carry this SH*T" - if you do - very good , if you dont - not that bad it was just a chance. I had many winning streaks, I felt like i cant lose a game and all that time I was thinking "I AM SO FUKIN GOOD DAMMMNNN" , but after that I got games where my team were like monkeys and this drived me insane. After trying to understand what was going on I kinda saw the picture. When I was winning I wasnt kinda carrying the team all the time, it was somebody else , I was helping, when I was losing hard I wasnt good enough to change the game. So in the eyes of the ranked system I am exactly where I should be and if I progress its going to be a slow and steady climb.

I saw your ranked history and can tell you that you are in the same spot even tho in different ranking (I am plat 1). Even it seems to me that you are losing your lane most of the times, no matter vs golds or silvers , winning/losing, you are behind. In the eyes of the system you are at your place.

Also you play a lot. You want to climb and its not kinda working out so your mental drops which will reflect your gameplay which will reflect your mental and so on. Give it a break and watch some streamers that play your main champs, improve. I play mostly only on saturday evening and with 130 games I made it to high plat. I can even make it to diamond and higher but dont have the time for it. I learned from streamers and their vision of the game.

Good luck.
