What is this matchmaking joke?

So how can this be patched matchmaking when 3 silvers can get placed against a diamond, a plat, and a silver? And I'm not talking about waiting 20 minutes in queue. This was a 1 minute pop for such an uneven game that looking at their rankings my team was tilted before the match even started. We resolved to play safe but against a malz shaco and irelia, without all 3 of us there it didn't matter if we were under tower or not. How can you actually even call this matchmaking? It's like you just grabbed the first six people that queued up and shoved them together. If you are going to allow flex queue for 3v3's can you atleast do something about this horrific matchmaking? Your patch actually made things worse. Pre-patch I was matched against at worst a gold V but post patch I ended up in a series as the only silver in a diamond game. How are we supposed to climb when our opponent's elos are double or triple ours?

The game is fucked rn mate. I'd say move to overwatch or some other game until they pull their heads out of their arses or something. In the meantime its not even worth playing because it will just piss you off and you'll resort to being toxic and you'll be punished.

I don't know, but it's not fun being placed with / against silvers. :/ It's not fun going legendary every game

Horrendous. TBH I was the reason we lost. The baits they used to repeatedly gank me had never even occurred to me as possible. I was in lane as brand against an ekko with their lee sin jungle camping my lane. Not complaining cuz it was the smartest move but damn it sucked.
