Officially Given Up on Ranked

This last game was the straw that broke the camels back. Game crashed, I got the firewall error preventing the game from loading about 5 times before actually getting in game which put me at a 7 lvl disadvantage. I farm and play my best to soon climb to 6-0 and dominate bot lane as adc despite the disadvantage I was given. Ended the game with 2nd highest cs and best k/d/a, yet still lost because once again I have to rely on complete strangers who don't seem to understand basic concepts of the game.

People always say you have to carry to get to gold or higher which I have a problem with. If you go into every game with the mindset that you have to carry, the game becomes a chore. Its a game of pick the most op low skill cap champ for your role and exploit its OP-ness, boring. Don't get me wrong, when you get a good competent team its extremely satisfying but most of the time spent in ranked results in an unpleasant disappointing experience that I've had enough of.

Besides, I'm not trying to be some pro mlg player anyway and games are meant to be fun.

Yup. They could make a few simple changes that would vastly increase the QoL of ranked matches. They chose not to, however, and continue to cater to whiny 12 year olds.

If you want to carry a game, adc really ain't the best position. I honestly think jungling with champs like Kha, Fio, Trynd, and some others is a much better way to carry. You have objective control, the ability to assassinate fed enemies, and good splitpush (Kha could use youmuu's for tower taking, though.).

Also, you might want to look into maintenance on your PC and possibly changing some settings if you keep getting a firewall error. It only happened to me once back when it was happening to a good portion of the community.

Welcome back to the dark side. The visitor's lounge is over there.
