Something needs to be done about matchmaking

Riots matchmaking is absolutely horrid. Last game the highest elo on my team was gold 5 (me) and the lowest was unranked (4k wins though) the next lowest was s2 (g5,g5,s1,s2,UR). And this player with 4k wins ONLY plays Teemo (I think this is satan). Anyway, on their team, the lowest elo was g5 and highest g1 (g1,g2,g3,g5,g5). The two games prior to that, I get people who aren't even level 30 (they fed, because they had no clue how to handle s2+ players). It's really getting annoying loosing so many games with lower elo players who don't play at near a high enough caliber. Ex: Not going for objectives, farming terrible, no map awareness, performing poorly in team fights, the list goes on and on. Riot should keep the elo within the first tier of the lower division and 4 tiers of that division. So there aren't silver 4's playing in a game with g3's. Make it divisional games (Example: No lower than a silver 1 and no higher than gold 2 kind of thing). There needs to be some sort of code that helps with that.

I don't mind when people do poorly, I get mad when people don't know HOW to play.

I can tell from reading back, I didn't do a very good job at illustrating my point. But i think the majority of people can tell you that elo under gold two, the players are horrible (myself included). And if you dont agree with my statement, get over it, becasue it's true. There are large gaps at how bad players are tho between the lower elo's that should have extra attention to for matchmaking.

Gold 2, for me, was the most cancer I will ever receive. 7 promos to finally get out. But I will agree normals can be frustrating, and that's why I refuse to play them with out a full premade, but normals is free game. Sure people below g2 are bad, I honestly think p5 is just as bad but that's me, but normals is where they can practice new champs, new routes, runes, masteries etc... I find it hard to expect much out of people in normals. My last games were champs I haven't played in a long time, did bad that game but no one called me a noob or scrub mainly becuase I am in plat and there not. Idk just saying normals is for practice.
