Frankly I'm a bit pissed right now

Jefftiffy·Jan 30, 2016·1 votes·649 views

You "fixed" matchmaking after almost 2 weeks of stupidity. I was gold 4 last season and was being put against people in Bronze 1-3 for 3 of my promo games before I said, fuck this I'm not doing it anymore.

You need to let everyone do their placements again or reset ranked for this season. Because me losing 2 games to people who have 0 clue how to abuse very abusable things really pisses me off in promos and placements.

I was 8/0/2 one game with Darius and our team was up about 20 kills at 15 minutes I go to tower dive from behind mid outer tower with our fed Pantheon because I can when I'm that fed and the 4 people under tower are at 500ish hp and Panth was starting his man drop. He cancelled it and then sat there and said I got greedy when I was the bait for the easy quadra when our team was in the lane too (sandwiched team = free kills). Another game I was Nasus, so the enemy jungler is in my lane 24/7, but our bot lane could not land any skill shots when we had a Caitlyn and a Janna. I honestly hate playing with bad Bronze players more than I hate playing with bad Gold players because they miss about 50% of their skill shots even when they are easy and don't abuse openings. It was 3v2 in that bot lane and our bot still lost (Maokai camped their lane but bot lane couldn't hit skill shots on rooted targets).

I mean I have won 1 out of 3 games right now and even so it was more of a game where I played Lissandra and the enemy team was bronze and thought that you focus me first when I am the person who is meant to try to dive into teams and start fights and not necessarily live kind of like Karthus. Sure I got no kills, but I set up so many kills for our team that it was extremely hard to lose as long as I ate all the aggro.

Also I might add that my Lunar Revel shop is literally the same as my Snowdown one except for 3 skins. And I have all champs unlocked. Like WTF.

When you have 1 or more people who have no people how to play the game it essentially makes it impossible to win because not only are they doing bad, but they are giving the team more resources to stop you from carrying. One person can lose the game believe or not. You can thank the snowballing meta.

It shouldn't matter don't rely on your team if you have a lead do what it takes to keep your lead. Build full ad for all I care if you don't know how to win when you are 8/0 you should belong where you are. There is no reason for you to climb because you will get stomped.

The thing was in gold I was still snowballing. The biggest problem I have had is literally my team will not push or group. There's always that one guy who is like "I know we just aced their team, but I really want to kill those Krugs instead of taking the inhib tower".

You sure you weren't boosted? Because a gold having trouble carrying bronze is surprising.

Little Stick ManJan 30, 20161 votes

anyone legitimately complaining about being put in bronze for placements was probably boosted. any player who actually got out realizes how easy it is and wouldn't waste time bitching

No I mean its more annoying the stuff you put up with because I literally just played a game with wu where i carried extremely hard. And I have never boosted and I rarely ever play with others anymore since all my friends have started to quit League other than the ones in Plat-Diamond so I can't really queue with them.

But if you think about how much placements mean in this game. It puts you against people that you have to carry instead of people your skill which is bad because it means it isn't accounting your MMR. If your MMR is gold level and its putting you against bronze this is a matchmaking issue and if matchmaking was being bad then its not my fault at all. Even with losses my MMR keeps going up somehow. Now I am fighting silver level players at the very least and I am starting to do much better because the teams know a little more

this game is full of annoying shit and people, that doesn't change at any rank. if you got to gold on your own merit, then you should be able to get there again with ease. you're playing against bronze and silver players I mean come on

I mean I have carried the 2 games I played tonight. Both as Jayce and Wu Kong. The thing is unless you pick someone who has massive wave clear and AA steroids and maybe range it is really hard to win by yourself. Like playing Darius went for me. I went 8/0 but I just couldn't shove down towers fast enough before i had other people on me or before my team got themselves in bad fights or didn't follow through with won fights. My one win with Liss pre-patch was because my team abused the fact that I was purposely throwing away my KDA for the team. Sure I went like 0/8/7 but those 7 assists snowballed top as well as forced team fights that we won.

Little Stick ManJan 30, 20161 votes

wukong and jayce are made to have high impact, I mean wu's ult alone can force the enemy to avoid team fights. also if you're 8/0 the last thing you should be doing is trying to push towers, a 0/10 ashe can push a tower. when you're that strong you force your team to come to you and spearhead the assault down mid with your team at your back

Except you can't force bronzies to push. Literally I feel like in bronze you are going to get the one person that oesn't know when to group at least 50% of your games. I'm not talking like oh they never group. I'm talking their lane is gone and they are still farming and everyone is seen and you know that their best option is to either push or rotate to help the team. This isn't a uncommon thing in gold either, but it isn't nearly as common and generally they are actually getting most of the farm if they aren't grouping and I can feel like at least they can do something with it. In bronze people farm while ahead and meanwhile there is a team fight going on netting the team more gold than they can farm per wave.

DissectionsJan 30, 20161 votes

Honestly grouping isn't the best idea and is really overused and I wouldn't rely on that. There is always something you could improve on and this will help you improve your solo play than focusing on what you can't control as you can't control others thoughts and decisions you may persuade them but it is essential them making the decisions to follow or not. So you really need to stop blaming teammates when there is plenty of ways you can win individually. Now this is really difficult to learn and if you learn how to control your emotions and have a right mindset maybe you can be in an elo similar to mine.

You sure don't know how to win when you have a lead like that the moment I get 1 kill the game is over from the beginning sole reason why I try to get first blood in the shortest amount of time.

You can only push so hard by yourself. If your entire team is bronze then they tend to not push and it really drags out the game and throws away your lead. I mean most Bronze games towers don't go down very fast when someone gets ahead because they don't push. It's really sad how people let easily won games go to waste. As the game I was Nasus, I literally took an entire lane while being camped and was putting out the DPS and tanking in team fights, but the rest of my team was bad at team fights so it meant I would often be the last person standing even chasing the adc and support out of the fights.
