Unlucky Games?

Unfortunate Game··4 votes·3,338 views

Is it true that if youre on a losing streak due to all your teammates feeding you get paired with other people losing?

It feels like every once in awhile (month) i go on an unlucky losing streak, not from me playing poorly, but from my team straight feeding 20+ kills to a carry.

Pretty much every game today that I played almost all of my team were feeders. It just seems super unlucky, but idk how the system works. Anyone care to explain?

no idea, I've got the same thing.

I'm stuck in Bronze IV - V, every time I get back to IV I get teamed up with feeders and true bronzies, they are seriously holding me back from getting out of bronze.

Well i wasnt talking about ranked, I was talking about normals or just in general of getting paired with unlucky teammates who keep feeding non stop.

So basically, I get when people say "you should be able to carry", and I say it too, considering im working on plat now and shouldnt be long, but sometimes I understand the struggle where your team bot lane go 2-15 (sup+adc) and your other lanes are trolling, etc.

So I get the struggle, but these games seem more like unfortunate/unlucky, rather than me not being able to carry.

To the guy whos like "youre bad, you should be able to carry", id love to see you carry against a 20 kill zed @ 20 mins, or a super fed master yi, where they get fed for no reason other than my team suiciding. lols

The real reason I dont believe in elo hell is because if you ever watch a diamond-challenger player rank up an account, they normally place out of placements gold (or lets say silver?) and they will instantly climb, and its not because their team is full of smurfs/good players, its because they set up the environment (pressure, etc.) to make that game winnable.

But then you also see, sometimes they have these "troll" games that we're talking about, and then you see that it happens to everyone, so it makes me feel a bit better, that im not the only one getting trolled by monkey players.

Honestly its just 1 v 9 every game I play, and its stressful because sometimes I want to be carried, but then I realize, I have to carry and I cant rely on anyone, which sucks so bad. I want to be able to rely on my team, but then I realize how bad the average person in my elo is, and know that I cant rely on em'.

It's w/e I just hope I get some sort of motivation to play more ranked so I can finally rank up, cuz its too frustrating staying in silver/gold.

The average person that climbs in this game climbs witha 55% winrate. It takes alot of wins, and losses to climb, and quite frankly, you need to git gud. If youre in bronze you belong there. There isnt that much of a luck factor tbh

Lol im not talking about that. I understand the game, I understand what youre saying.

Im talking about normals, not ranked. If I were in bronze id be going 20 kills every game, carrying all bronze games, lols.

But yeah man, talking about normals, and if its true?

normals are a crapshoot unless youre 5qed with other people... I just played adc lux in normals the other day so yeah.... you can get unlucky as hell

yeah, I guess I should stop playing normals, huh? haha. Bad habbit, but its usually all I do. I rarely play ranked unless one of my friend asks me.

Dude it's so incredibly hilarious.

The best part was 3/5 voted no when i offered to surrender. 3 times.

Surrendering is psychological.

If you surrender after you guys win a small skirmish, they will always vote mainly no. If you surrender after you get fucked and lose a team fight, they will all ff.

if you make them believe that they have a chance in winning, even if you dont want to play, they wont ff.

Pretty lame, but it is what it is.

Short answer is yes it is set up this way, but Rito denies it.

Unlucky days do exist, Some days you will be lucky to win even one game. You will be playing your heart out and it simply won't be enough. These days do exist. I will admit this.

However if you have been having a hard core losing streak that has lasted for more than 2 days, than you are more then likely the problem. A losing streak should never last more than 5 games. If you lost 5+games, than you are very much, indeed, part of the problem.

I've just had an unlucky week. :-; I'm not awesome but I don't do too bad until late game with the ADC and mid enemy's up ten kills. Then I just fall apart and get ripped apart.
