Is anyone in plat elo even having fun?

Is anyone out there having fun on this game in plat elo? I'm really finding it hard to even want to play.

For reference, I have a 56% overall win rate this season and a 60% WR on my one trick.

These are my games today:

Lobby 1: I have a 37% win rate top laner, playing ignite/teleport hecarim. I dodge. -3 lp

Lobby 2: I have a 25% win rate mid, 25% win rate top, and an auto filled adc. I dodge -10 lp

Game 1: I go 1/0/2 in lane. My middle is 0/2, My jungle is 4/1. My top is 0/5. My adc is 2/0/1 and somehow just does less damage than the enemy kaisa and loses several duels. I mean I gave the guy a lead and he did basically nothing with it.

Game 2: I win bot in an absolute stomp. I go 4/3/20. My top and mid laner are repeatedly caught out in the enemy jungle. I win us like 3 team fights in a row with smart plays as lulu. My team throws away baron buff to being caught out. We lose the game.

Game 3: I have a 25% WR sylaso and a 25% win rate yasuo adc. Both hard int their lanes and are like 0/5 before 10 minutes. My yasuo hyper feeds vayne. I didn't die once in lane.

I don't understand how I can have a positive win percentage and good performances every game and be matched with people who win 25% of their games. It's not fun. It's not interesting. It's just boring. It's a coin flip.

You should see the people in some of these plat games man. I admit I make mistakes, but these people throw games so fucking hard its unreal. In my last 200 games I'm not sure I've even made one play that "threw the game", but my teammates do it all the time. Stupid shit like pushing a sidelane too far out alone. Getting baron buff and going to farm jungle camps while it wears off.

Does anyone have any fun in this elo at all?

I mean you're just straight up lying about win percentages. None of your team mates had 25% win rates so I'm just gonna assume you're lying about the ones I can't check as well.

Yea when streamers do unranked to challenger it's not an accurate representation of the games normal people get because everyone knows who they are and either int or help them win. Normal ppl usually just int. Climbing is just random chance of whether or not your team ints or actually plays the game. I feel you.

yes, I forgot that everyone that goes into a match will know who a streamer is and that they are doing some random challenge. You severely overestimate how well known most streamers, what their view count is, where the views they have come from and even how many people who play SoloQ even care about League streamers in general

There is no estimating here bud. I watch the streams with my own eyes and pay attention to chat. Try it, it's fun, and you see it with your own eyes. I'm not saying they're not good at the the game, but from watching constantly its obvious there's more at play.

Cause the game is in a dog shit state. I can't be bothered ot queue because half the time it is a miserable experience that is completely unenjoyable.

then why are you here and not playing something better? love this "game is trash" comments yet those same people still are here, complaining nonstop. You don't enjoy something? then quit and leave. Nobody is forcing you to play the game. Go and do something more enjoyable then again I guess being miserable is enjoyable for some weird reason.

Because I love League. I love this game. The game is in a dog shit state right now. That doesn't mean I want to give up on. I just want the game to improve.

I really don't know what else to do but complain.

I don't know... complain about things that make sense? instead of complaining because someone who has 10 games played on Yasuo this split doesn't have a positive winrate on him? or about a Sylas player that won his previous game with Sylas pretty convincingly and was still considered the "ace" of your team according to op.gg? instead of complaining about stuff like that how about you focus on being a shotcaller? how about you try and tell people what to do in a respectful manner? how about you don't go "oh this dude has a bad winrate with this champion therefore i'm going to dodge, who cares if they have 3 games on this champion this season!"?
