My account is trapped in ELO Hell
http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=fumiefan
Just go down the list.
38% winrate, as opposed to my 62% on my other account.
Consistently bad teams that just won't help. Safe spacers who are so worried about themselves dying that 3 other people die instead. AFK's. 2 trolls in placement games that bumped me from S2>B2.
I do believe in ELO Hell and do think it is real. I can assure you, I will keep losing games until I'm in Bronze 5 at this rate.
And I know someone will say, "where's your pinks?". I could buy more, but truthfully, the problems we have run into are not due to getting caught in unwarded places. Extra vision never hurts, and I definitely could buy more, but I do not think it is the main issue.
The big things that are frustrating me:
-
Teammates dragging enemy players into baron/dragons. This happens almost every game. I'll solo Drag, tell the team I want to solo drag and they still come. When they leave the lane, the enemy botlaner sees this and that drag is up and immediately, 2-3 people head on over, who weren't even aware it was being contested. Then the drag gets lost or someone dies. Or, teammates see me working on it and after pushing their lane out and being spotted, they waltz over, bringing enemies with them.
-
The consistent amount of just bad picks. In the last game, we warned the top, DO NOT PICK SINGED INTO DARIUS. He immediately autolocks, goes 0-3 in 10 minutes. A Zilean mid - it worked, but he ended up super behind in CS and would have had the same effect as a support. The non-stop Teemo picks. Teemo can be really strong, but he's squishy and he doesn't provide much CC.
-
Safe space playstyles. I'll pick a voli and want to dive in or a Shyv and TP in, but the rest of the team won't follow. They'll farm or say "it's too dangerous" and end up getting me killed when I end up going in alone.

Yasuo. Total pain in the ass no matter the champ. Ranged champ on him? Windwall. Someone like Shyvanna who dives? Tornado that stops it. You try to run away? He finds a wave and just skates through like its nothing. 2nd worst champion ever created next to Ekko, who is just as bad.
-
The ranged/cc meta. Ranged champs are simply too strong right now. You almost have to have a ranged support. I should never fear going into a ranged champ as a Voli/Shyv, but I don't think I'll be able to take them nowadays. I'm getting poked out by everyone.
-
I also don't feel that getting more CS than the other person matters as much as it should. I've had games where I'm 80-100 CS on someone and our levels are the same.
