So, I've been sick today so played quite a lot of lol. Sadly lost more than won. I can't say I played well myself when we lost, of course, but I can't either agree that I could have carried all those games. Poeple say that you just need to carry, it's not about your teams but today showed me whole opposite. I was siler 3 yesterday and now I'm Silver V 0 LP.

  1. First game I played xin Zhao toplane. We lost, enemy katarina 30/9. You can quess not much to say about that game, pretty hard to carry from toplane when katarina is getting very fed By killing mid and bot.

  2. Next game I played well with yasuo and we won.

  3. Then I played yasuo again, enemy hecarim camped me and I went 0/7. Worst game of the day By me, but still i had second most gold in our team... as 0/7.

  4. Next game, anivia mid. Was 4/0 at some point, but 1/12 lucian and 1/9 riven kind made winning impossible.

  5. Next game won as malphite support, it was easy, 5/2/12. Even did solo double kill in bot without dying because enemy ADC and support dived me ;D

  6. Then yasuo mid again, 10/11, not worst game won laning phase but our botlane fed again.

  7. Next game our support banned my pick (yasuo), and trolled. Enemy ashe 21/4, GG. And support took all kills he could and built fulll ap blitz....

  8. Then I played twitch jungle which was very bad pick, I didn't do well but fisrt time my team was good and carried me today.

  9. Then xin Zhao jungle, our ADC was lvl 2 on 10 minuted and 0/10. He disconnected and reconnected all the time.

  10. Then this game. I will have nightmares of it for long... played ADC twitch. looked team stats before game,,, They had won 9 ranked games in total. 4 players, 9 ranked wins. And I in this noob team, with 330 wins. I had 36 times more wins than my 4 other team members in total. And enemy team had hundreds of wins eeryone except one. Even one gold player. My support gladly was good. Katarina was actually getting few kills aganst ther mid who also was newbie to ranked. But our jungler nidalee went to duo top with lee sin even they had smite. So they were against teemo. And soon teemo was 10/0. TEN SLASH DAMN ZERO. against our duo top. We had no jungler, so malphite camped bot and we had 0 hope in this game. Our duo top had total 38 farm when game ended. Teemo had 127... I had about same amount of farm as our mid, top and jungle together.

  11. Next game jax jungle, our bot goes 2/14 and mid 4/14. Nothing to do about it.

  12. And finally I played teemo top versus nasus. Mid went 1/9 bersus akali and that means game is lost.

so 3 victories and 9 losses. Every game I lost, I had troll, afk, or just people who fed a lot, in my team. All losses were very clear losses, 20-30 minute games. None of them I couldn't win by playing safe and farming, or winnng my lane by kill or two. I just can't understand how I can get teams like I had n game number 10, and why my teammates can never play safe. All you who say that you can carry teams don't matter, I think even pro players couldn't have carried more than one or two of these losses. I am guy who plays for fun, few games max in normal day if I have time, my farming skills are pretty good on those champions that I have played the most and I can win lane with them. But my teams just are uncarryable. You can say whatever you want, but I couldn¨t win any of these 9 games I lost. Rot clearly wants that I don't climb, I understand you can't do anything about trolls and afks ending up on mu team, but putting NEWBES with under 6 ranked games on my team, while I have almost 700 tanked games, IS NOT RIGHT. If enemy team has 200 rabked games played and I am the only one n my team with over 10 games, it's already lost game. But you punish me for dodging games like this, if I dodged one more game I got like 1 h ban... I¨just feel this is very unfair towards me.

Btw what is p with yasuo in bronze/Silver/gold tier games, ban/pickrate is about 100% in my games (I like playing yasuo and itås my most played champion, sucks it's very hard to play my main atm)

Do you have a chance to win your every game?

That's not the question you should be asking. You will automatically lose some games because of your teammates, and you will automatically win some games because of your teammates. The right question is whether or not you can win more games than you lose through your own contribution, and the answer to that question is 100% yes. If you do that, you'll climb. If you can't, then you'll reach a point where it feels like you can't make enough of a contribution to win most of your games.

This may be as skilled as you are right now. If you don't think a pro could win most of these silver games, then I guarantee you that you're wrong. You may not be skilled enough to carry the games, but with work and with recognition of your own mistakes, you can change that.

Just depends on your skills man.

That happens a lot.

But if you are good then you can carry your team.

When you are complaining your teammates as 1/12 0/10 2/14, maybe ask yourself why can't you be 12/1 10/0 14/2 and carry your teammates :)

Just an advice. Not everybody is good this game. That's not anyone's fault. Instead of complaining, go try harder to carry :)

I know it feels bad when you have those teammates, but it's actually fare. When you win 8 games in a row(just an example), you won't think that riot is not fare because your win ratio is high, but thinking that is because you are good and carried the whole team.

I don't know if what I said make sense to you, just personal thoughts :)

"newbes" with under 6 ranked games means absolutely nothing. you could have someone of plat skill level that's doing their placement matches. If anything, I would prefer to be on the team with someone with 6 ranked games played that's in mid silver than someone with almost 700.

There's nothing unfair about it, it just sounds to me like you've reached your true elo at the moment. Rather than blame everyone but yourself, focus on what you did wrong in those games and improve if you want to climb. The only common factor in your games is you, if you can improve on that and play at a skill level higher than your current elo, you should put your team at an advantage in every single game you play.

looking at your match history, you've fed basically every game you played today. How you're actually blaming your teammates, I don't know.

After 200 wins in ranked, you are firmly placed where you should be. You will have lose streaks, you will have win streaks, but ultimately you will eventually end up where you should be. I know it's still frustrating, but just focus on improving yourself. Don't worry about factors you can't control.
