https://i.ibb.co/XV2hD6Q/Untitled-1.jpg and those are just the 5 last games at the moment I made the pic but they're reflecting the trend last one : 2/8 top (me, jungler 0/3) 2/7 mid 3/8 adc 2/6 bot meanwhile, a guy in my list I played with a couple times, until he inted 3 games in a row : https://i.ibb.co/rk0Bfcr/Untitled-4.jpg carried by matchmaker 6 games in a row if the only way to win at this elo is to get boosted by the ennemy team then there's no need to waste time, just announce it at the beginning of the game : "you got the bad team, this game is lost, want to go next? Y/N" because at this point it's only this : you get the right or wrong team, and that decides the whole game

You're playing malphite jungle and nunu support. How are you surprised that you're not doing well?

also, none of the games you showed here have you with a positive KDA, or really any good stats at all, besides the 1/2/7 nunu game (which you won)

One of the biggest tips any pro player or high elo player will give you is that the game is 90% mental.

It is quite clear by this post that your mental is weak. You're blaming your team for everything, you're raging on the forums, you're blaming "the system" for "keeping you down"

I've been there. I think most people have.

It holds you down way more than any external force ever will. If you play while you're thinking this way, you will continue to lose.

Instead, at the end of every game, look at YOUR OWN stats. Look at YOUR OWN performance. Watch YOUR OWN vods, and see what you could be doing better.

Worry about you. Nobody else. You can't control your team mates or the enemy team, and no amount of typing, forum posting, or raging is ever going to change that. EVER.

Only person you can change is you.

I am in a very similar mindset to you. I hit plat series twice and couldn't make it through, one lane inevitably started inting to no end. Finally reaching plat would mean so much to me, as I've been playing this game since 2013. Oh well, I guess I need a break.

it's because it's august. all the challenger, master, diamond, platinum, and gold players have stopped playing serious and are making new accounts to prevent the rest of the playerbase from climbing.

It happens every year. at about may after they've logged their win-trades and secured their main account they log onto their alt accounts that they bought with their twitch stream money and go to work making sure no one dethrones them.

riot should make LP decay much harsher for higher levels of play.

I just had a Leblanc support in the Gold promos. Shit was ridiculous. They lost bot hard but I made sure to report that piece of shit though. I don't even get how trash like that even got to Gold in the first place.

anyone can get out if silver if they fix themselves. matchmaking is not specifically targeting you with bad teammates. stop being delusional and improve. really bad excuses

You're not any different from anyone else. Everyone experiences the exact same thing. The only thing that separates you from the plat players is they are good enough to not be the source of the problems when fighting gold players at a rate that's above average for gold. The only thing that separates those plat players from diamond players is the diamond players are good enough to not be the source of the problems when fighting plat players at a rate that's above average for plat. And so on.

the account you bought is botted. you can tell by the name. you'll be permabanned during the next bot/script ban wave. they do about 2 every year. just don't buy cheap accounts.
