The first one says that if he plays support he's flaming (last pick obv), and we kind of ignore him. Then someone else says he's trolling becuz he's lost so much he doesn't care anymore (i lol'd). Then finally last one just goes and says "Well lets try supports in every role then :DDDDDD". So, tell me Rito, what the figgly FUCK was I supposed to do in this situation except dodge. Why does a game filled with trolls force you to play with them or get a loss in promos of all games. Now I'm forced into a situation where I HAVE to win my last game. Its extremely frustrating that you can't do ANYTHING about this, and the worst part is, even though I've seen a bunch of rage threads just like this, I see no active response from Riot regarding these situations.

Just queue-dodge anyway. Your MMR stays the same & LP-gains will be adjusted accordingly. For example, were I to get maybe +20 LP for a match if played, but I decide to queue-dodge, assuming that I don't bother to dodge the next one, I would get maybe +26 LP for winning the next one. Periodically there will be times where I've had only around 53LP where one win automatically put me into promo-series. Once you understand the system you can then queue-dodge without giving a rat's ass about whether you have a series or not (and on another account it skipped from Silver 5 to Silver 3 last season due to MMR being much higher than the display-rank).

Silver is a train wreck right now

The level of pure retardation and little kids talking shit has been rolled up to an 11 since worlds started.

It's Silver 4, literally everyone is a troll even if they don't think they are

2 tips:

  1. Every game is winnable
  2. The trolls are more likely to be on the other team than yours if you yourself aren't a troll. Over a large number of games you will find your true ELO, but if you let yourself tilt then you're just gunna drop.

Is true. I'd heard people talking about silver 5 being worse than bronze 5 and its definitely been proven to me since I climbed from bronze 5 this season. Hopefully i'll make it to gold in the next month so I can get that Sivir skin lol. I ended up getting into S4 regardless so the sting has lessened but that seriously pissed me off mainly kuz i was on a win streak up to that point. Previous to that specific champ select I had 3 dodgers for no reason, so I think that specific champ select was just the trigger.
