Matchmaking

I guess it's time for Riot to introduce a good matchmaking in normal games, due to problems with it.

I think it's not fair for nobody to play with platinums every matchmade game being silver. That makes me angry, I don't have any fun with that games (which is the main objective of videogames) and nobody in my team, that only encourages you to leave games or League of Legends, and your teammates to start blaming just because you fed a '2 divisions higher' player. If I want to improve my skills, I have ranked type games, but if I go to a normal game, I don't want to deal with players so much better than me, if I go to a normal it's because I want to relax from the rankeds game stress, BUT I CAN'T.

So my suggestion is:

-Can you introduce a matchmaking that matches me up with one division of difference?

Examples: I'm silver, match with bronze-silver-gold I'm bronze, match with bronze-silver

If I'm silver and in the game there's a bronze player, match only with bronze-silver, playing against golds wouldn't be fair for them.

In the case of premade games, an average of the Elo would be fine.

Thanks for your attention.

They will tell you about your hidden mmr, ranked games don't count for normals and so on. The point is, matchmaking basically doesn't exist. Take a 25-50-100 game streak, no one is balanced (ok, some: around 3%, 1/30). That's what happens for low elo, at least. In order to easily keep the 50% win/loss ratio for every player, 1 time you go in the far stronger team, 1 time in the far weaker, averagely. Naive coding and fast queues. This ends in (very) frequent bad games, even when you win basically doing nothing because the other team is far worse. But it works, apparently : )
