Report Riot?

Is there any way to report riot? i am stuck in bronze two for the past month. keep promoting then I get the worst troll teams na and get demoted. I must've won promos at least 8 times already. I believe this is hightly unusual and i really think riot is just trolling my account. I've improved leaps and bounds trying to claw out of bronze back to silver but I feel like the better I get the worst my teams are and it is extremely frustrating. I can see getting bad teams once in awhile but not immediately after I get promo then get instant toxic troll teams to demote me within a few games. Then get decent teams till I win promos again. This has to be the work of rito.

I still find it interesting that people expect Riot to be able to measure a person's individual skill at a team based game when you are loaded into games with different people, against different people every game. On top of that, you are often playing different champions or different roles from one game to the next. The only way your individual skill alone can guarantee your advancement is if you are clearly at a greater skill level than a majority of other players in your division. Aside from that, you have to rely on consistency (lets be honest, grinding), teamwork, and a fair amount of luck.

Suck less, win more

Edit: That last part was meant as a friendly jab :P

Feels like it at times, but honestly just how it goes.

Edit: That being said, at bronze, no real excuse, get better.

If you can't climb out of Bronze you belong there.

It also seems your MMR is below where you are currently placed at.

No, Riot isn't "holding you back". If you improve your play then you will climb.

First of all, your name is disrespectful. Michael Schumacher is THE LEGEND so don't use his name!!! (Just kidding, he is a legend but i like to see ppl know f1)

Secondly, it's not necessarily true that if one climb out of bronze, that means they belong there...

His improvement might be way quicker than his MMR improvement. I know what it feels like to gain 8-9 lp and lose 19-24 and it's not funny. I was on 60% winrate but my MMR took so long to get up that it was inevitable to 'end' this winrate...

All i am going to say is, many decent players are indeed stuck in bronze because it takes a real good player to counter the 8-9 lp gains and 19-24 losses. So a silver player can't really climb out of bronze with those odds.

thank you. I know I play much better than bronze but I guess a silver player would be able to counteract the losses I get in lp. I'll continue this hard grind lol. I appreciate the feedback.

Something to consider is that on average you'll win/lose 50% of your games and still be able to move up. You're where you belong and just have to work to get better and move up since everyone else in Bronze has to do the same. Someone is always going to lose and if they boosted everyone up then it would just lead to the same thing in each tier. You can't always advance up each time since everyone else is trying to do the same.
