Oh look, another game where I had morons that should not be in ranked!

That matching system though, Rito! I love it! 2/13 Rene, every other lane had fed 5-6 kills, and I'm walking around 11/2 for most of the game wondering what the fuck I did wrong even though I spent more time in side lanes than mid.

But hey, it's MY fault that I lose most of my games. Yep!

Remind me why the fuck I'm matched with people like this? As soon as I hit gold, the quality of my teammates dropped so much that I swear I've had better teammates in bronze. But don't worry! Rito cares, and makes sure every game is fair!

And on a side note, when are we nerfing the walking pile of bullshit and hypocrisy that is Riven?

I've met a lot of people who say "It's always the other guy." But the ranking system works on long-range statistics. If you've played say 100 games, the chance that it really IS "all those other guys," and never you, is practically 0%.

Yeah, sometimes your teammates don't do well, and you lose. But for all those glorious wins you remember getting, let me ask you this-- how many of THOSE were because the other team had guys throwing, and feeding you even when you might not really have deserved it?

Numbers are real, bro. Believe in them, be patient, and keep improving!

Oh I've had just about 4,000 games at this point (2,000 just this season), and despite it all I maintained a ~4:1 KDA (meaning I don't feed at all), and I do my job every game. But, I can only do so much in a TEAM game alone.

Sure, some of my wins were just free like that, but not all of them -- not even a lot of them. But just about every loss is because of other people doing poorly. Very rarely do I lose lane, and even more rarely do I feed. But, even if I'm doing fine, the other lanes have fed 20+ kills, and there's just not much I can do.
