Why does anyone even bother playing ranked?

Every time i try qualifying matches, its nothing but afkers, once it was 2 in a single match. Do we get a mulligan for that? Nope, it counts even though its total crap. But what really pissed me off is last game my top offered to lock graves for me (he was first pick) if i locked garen for him. I lock, he won't trade, and i'm stuck with a character i don't know how to play so of course we lose. My point is, every time i try to play ranked its nothing but a steaming pile aggravating bs, so why should I bother?

Frankly you probably shouldn't. Ranked is utter garbage.

It's totally your fault for not having a premade of 5+ with match analyst and sponsors.

Nobody is forcing you to play ranked buddy

Ok so finished my 10, and out of those 6 had an afk on my team, and 2 had ragequit. And most of the games i got dicked out of the character i wanted. I mean seriously, who is this shit fun for?

So basically the message is expect ranked players to be worse than randoms and there will be at least 1 d-bag in every match. Well now that i know i won't waste my time on it ever again.

but you already knew...you said "every time" what made you think anything would be different? If something is not enjoyable for you and you have a persistently bad experience the simplest thing to do is to discontinue the activity. You have no control over you who get matched with or the people that decide to play lol or ranked...the only thing you do have control over is yourself. Quit expecting people to behave the way you think they should and you will reduce your disappointment and be less frustrated. people are who they are, you just have to accept that. I personally dont like gangbangers, so when i find there is a thug hangout somewhere i avoid that area. Otherwise you are making a decision to deal with these things you're complaining about and therefor have no reason to complain any further because you have come to terms with it.

you steer your own ship...if you want your ship in ranked, you cant bitch that the waters cold when you get there.
