These are my two games from today and they prove everything that is wrong with the champ select and matchmaking right now. How does Riot pick the two ADCs I supported and decides I should support them instead of being ADC myself?

Both of these ADCs are far below my skill level. Both are averaging approx. 50 cs a game... 50cs in a 40 minute game. I literally have so much more cs per game than them it doesn't even make sense how I should have to support them instead of me just playing the role? Lucian was doing so poorly at cs I just started csing myself and out csd him as support morgana... Yes, they are new players probably and aren't super good at ADC, but my question then is why am I getting matched with them? One of them was lvl 26? Im unranked but no reason should any lvl 30s be matched with under 30s. From gold, to wards, to kills and deaths, turrets and dragons, Im not on the same skill level as the people I am being matched with and feel its holding me back from my true potential.

What is going on??? What is the point of continuing to play this game when Im just being forced into losing games? I was raged at by the Lucian for being a terrible support................ Its getting old. Right now if Im not adc its almost for sure a lost game.

edit: could have carried these games to wins as ADC, but my support game is only so strong, cant push lanes hard enough for carries.

A quick glance at your games tells me that you are shit and that everyone you play with and against is shit. I'm guessing that you're a relatively new player who has only recently hit level 30?

Ever consider getting over your unwarranted self-importance? No one gives a shit that you had a bad game. Deal with it.

So you took their cs

and then insulted them for having low cs.

.... right. That really enforces your point about how terrible the matchmaking system is.

Also, if you want to play a competitive game, play ranked, not normals.

If were playing support and my ADC was only getting 1-2 minions per wave I'd probably start cs'ing as well....

work on your mmr, i.e. get better and you will be placed with less noobs.

i suggest not playing support as it is the hardest role to carry bad players with

i suggest mid and jungle. Adc can work but you might have to overcompensate for a bad support. mid and jungle can heavily impact the game while being the most self-sufficient

Step 1: pick Annie Brand Velkoz Morgana Step 2: Wait till level 6 Step 3: Ward and Terrorize Step 4: Grab elo

I see you play a lot of bard and morgana, that doesn't exactly help with mediocre ADC's. You have to play someone like Nautilus Blitzcrank Thresh Braum TahmKench AlistarShen Malphite. Someone big and scary who can create a zone and let the crappy ADC TRY to cs under less pressure. Someone who can dictate what's happening in the lane. Morgana and Bard are great supports...for a carry who knows what they are doing. Otherwise you get someone trying to All-In when you were only harrassing or something dumb like that. The ability to tank damage and more importantly PEEL LIKE A BOSSSSSS.

I had the exact problem as you do. I loved botlane so much, yet there was so little I could do. I can't do crap with adc if my support is utter crap, and vice versa, and I kept losing games. Now, I have moved to top/mid, and am still losing the majority of my games, but at least I as a player am doing quite well. What I have seen most is to try to get in to gold+, because that is where most people actually know what they're doing, so you can actually play the role you want without fear of teammates who completely suck(0-8 anumu bot lane....).

no offense bud but it doesn't look you're much better

rushing alacrity sightstone + yellow ward awful sums

Ruin Lance1/19/2016, 8:40:49 PM1 votes

then play draft pick so you don't have to support, or invite a friend who knows how to adc, that's the only advice i can give
