Ive won 8 out of my last 9 ranked games so i'm expecting a massive losing streak now.
Edit: Now lost 3 in a row the prophecy is nigh Edit 2: Back to win loss win loss Edit 3: Multiple loses with unranked and mid silvers on my team up against high golds and low plats

Melledoneus4 votesSince when did you have the deed to my Boards? This is my property... well, at least this portion of it. MM and LF have the other two.
Skins Project1 votesSense the day the Great Rubic fell...
His lands were split into many....
And many got land.
Melledoneus1 votesBut... Rubick was the tax collector, he never had any claim to these lands.
The tribes of Metal, Fish, and Ninja fought for these lands years ago.
Skins Project1 votesToo long ago my friend....
Well ye' all fought
The Heretic, the Tyrek, and the Project snuck in....
I denounce thy claim to these lands!
Melledoneus1 votesTyrek was the lore-ax.
The Heretic was... a heretic, I guess. Nobody really called them that, but they insisted that they are a heretic.
The Project was a failed experiment of meme fusion. It is an abomination upon these Boards.

GelsominoKiller13 votesIt works like this indeed.
Go in win streak
Get matched with higher elo opponents and same elo teammates
Struggle to win, start to lose 2-3 matches in a row, but fairly
Now you're in a losing streak
Get matched with incompetent teammates, feeders, afkers, toxic players
Wait till inevitable demotion
Win all your games till you come back to your rank
But now you're in a winning streak again...
Rinse and repeat

cancerous. yet correct.
Scary Door20 votesFor me it always goes like this:
WIN FOUR GAMES IN A ROW My team works together, is amazing, knows their champions, good map awareness, good synergy, zero or minimal toxicity and each game is fun...
"Alright, I'm in my promos, let's go!"
LOSE BOTH GAMES IN MY PROMOS My teams have at least two mouth-breathers, no cooperation or synergy, mid-laner picks Blitzcrank, Top laner decides to first time Yasuo into a Riven main with 1,700 games played this season, no map awareness, total toxicity and death threats. Games are 20 minute stomp fests.
Rinse, repeat.
Fat Bastard GOD4 votesYeah. I get the same shit. Lost four promos because of this.
MFTORANK11 votesWhen you are in your promos your chances of getting matched with noobs are trought the roof for some reasons.
Marshbouy8 votesThis is why i don't ranked. I don't want to come inches away from the next elo only to fall back down.
Great Muta2 votesSame thing happens in normals.
Check out my stat sheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DXfqiP4cR_mF1ajdlmRmqMtyZLrE_lsGwCvvjO0uRp8/edit#gid=1180632855
Almost every big winstreak comes with a losing streak of equal size
SoryInAdvance4 votesYeah but in normals i couldn't care less if i lose because it means nothing. Its purely a learning experience with no stress about what results of a loss.
Owyn2 votesexactly
win stream in ranked, then you get matched with kindergarden teams who know only how to walk their champs nothing more -> expected lose streak on promos, you get demoted to bronze, rito response: "GIT GUD SCRUB, IT'S 100% YOUR FAULT!!1" [slayer-jinx-wink]
Great Muta2 votesSo don't complain when you lose in ranked either, especially due to people trolling. It doesn't mean anything and it's a learning experience.
SoryInAdvance1 votesNever did. I've played like 30 ranked games in solo queue in my entire life and i've played consistently since ~february 2013
skyskee0084 votesI mean if you've actually improved and deserve those wins then maybe you'll lose a few but no streak.
If you "lucked" into those wins and are still playing at your old level then you will drop back down.
Also going in with the mentality of "losing streak" is gonna tilt you and make you play worse. Don't think about it and you'll have more fun and win more.
I don't care if the system sucks, the mentality of "I'm gonna go on a losing streak" GUARUNTEES you go on a losing streak.
Great Muta6 votesI disagree. Check out my recent losing streak: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DXfqiP4cR_mF1ajdlmRmqMtyZLrE_lsGwCvvjO0uRp8/edit#gid=1180632855
Jungler with no smite
3 AFK's
90cs in 36 mins ADC
Giving a kalista 14 kills in 18 mins
Autlock double jungle trolljob
Smurf Fizz ADC
This wasn't accidental.
skyskee0082 votesWell some games aren't winnable but I give you a 100% guarantee you didn't play perfectly (or even close) in those games.
Instead of looking at games as "win or lose" look ONLY at your performance.
Aka a win means nothing if you played like shit and a loss means nothing if you play well. Learn from every game, win or lose IF you care about climbing.
Or I guess you can get sucked into this "systems against me" mentality and it'll make it a lot harder to climb AND make you more tilted (make stupid descisions because "my team sucks"). Consistency man.
There is no way you game after game get trolls without inducing them in some way. I've played hundreds of games across my accounts and I've had win streaks (especially on a low elo acc) and NEVER have trolls.
GayFluffyUnicorn2 votesYes there is a way. 7 out of my last 17 games got lost alone by afks/inters. Look it up. Only people who don't play much ranked can talk like you. This whole ranked system is a scam nothing more
TEA Nietzsche 1 votesYes there is a way. 7 out of my last 17 games got lost alone by afks/inters. Look it up. Only people who don't play much ranked can talk like you. This whole ranked system is a scam nothing more
I play quite a bit of ranked and I agree with him. If you don't climb it's ALWAYS because you are simply not good enough. You just fed your ass off against a p4 Darius (who mains ADC and has a 38% winrate on Darius) while literally everyone else on your team won their respective lane. Your MMR is a disaster and you should hard carry every game if you truly want to stay in P1.
Melledoneus4 votesHaving a good mindset is crucial, but if there is an inherent flaw in the system we can't just ignore that.
Gregor Gysi1 votesThat would be?
Melledoneus3 votesThe fact that you are automatically given an immense disadvantage if you are doing well consistently. You shouldn't go up against Plats and be matched up with Bronzes in your Silver 3 promos. It's just not right.
Gregor Gysi1 votesThat is not the case. If you are doing well then you will probably play with and against G5 players.
Melledoneus1 votesLogically. But many times the game forgets to put higher MMR players on yoir team.
Crede7773 votesI'm all for focusing on yourself and being in control of your own destiny and I think that really holds true in this game. However, I've played long enough to realize that this game doesn't balance me or my opponents, it balances my teammates. If I go on a winning streak playing at a level where I get A's and S's (positive KDA, good awareness and CS, communication, etc.), then I will often go on a streak where I get highly toxic players who troll with picks and/or go AFK. That's not a change in how I play but rather a change in balancing whereby I'm forced onto teams that really have no hope of winning.
Ok, maybe it isn't them, maybe I'm the one on tilt. I'll take a break. If I come back 24-48 hours later, it's the same thing. I don't get out until the 5-10 games pass and I'm back to playing with sane individuals.
This also happens when I duo queue with a friend. It's like clockwork. Last time I played with him, the support thresh decided not to even play because our ADC picked Xayah and "she can't be good on that champ yet so I won't even bother playing."
In reality, the quality of my teammates should stay the same and the thing that changes is the difficulty of my opponents. But that isn't what I've observed.
Riot - Change your MMR algorithm so that it scales my opponents AND teammates until I'm consistently the weakest link on my team. That's where I should plateau at. Not the point where my hostage negotiation skills fail me and my "teammates" decide to blow the team up.
MFTORANK11 votesDon't worry dude it's the same for everybody, for me it's been win two, lose 3 for the past month. No matter how well I play the format remains. I was actually gold 2 last season with a good winrate and for some reason everytime I've been in my gold promos this season I go back to silver 3, where I crush people until I get to promos and downgrade again lol !!
Sun Wu Ryuumoku2 votesu can... Was in great winning streak until... the looser hammer hit me too (hard)
Gelmous2 votessame here, was on a 10 game winning streak so the match system decided to give me brain dead team mates
Tobias Brackner1 votesOr
Now, hear me out.
When you are matched up with better players...you learn from them and try to get better so you don't lose to them.
That way you demonstrate you are BETTER than those other players.
Because when you BEAT OTHER GOOD PLAYERS you demonstrate that you are BETTER THAN THE PEOPLE IN THE RANK YOU ARE so that way you RANK UP
MFTORANK11 votesWhen I feel that someone is better than me I play accordingly, I don't feed them and I become more of a team player. When your teammates are agaisnt better players they will feed them relentlessly and blame the jungler.
Tobias Brackner1 votesThen report them for blaming the jungler.
Sometimes you just lose because your team gets outplayed. That's the nature of a team game.
If you don't like it play fighting games
QuickenedBlade1 voteswow u post it and get upvotes
i post same thing and get downvotes
ecksdee
MFTORANK11 votesIt's so annoying, when you start winning the system matches you with unranked/trolls/boosted apes/feeders/afks agaisnt players who are as good or better than you. In my last two games as TOP I won lane got a huge CS lead and then my team was down by 15 kills at the 15 minutes mark lol !!
Jeanne fan club1 votesin my absolute first season of league of legends I placed in plat 1 with a 56%+ winrate in ranked.
my next season this mrr shit hit me hard because I didn't breeze through plat, I only managed to break diamond in the last month and I finished diamond 4, because diamond was significantly easier to play in than plat. I finished with a 49% winrate
this season i'm hardstuck in plat 2 and my mmr keeps rubber banding between my team being 10-0 in the first 7 minutes or the other team being 10-0 in the first 7 minutes. I don't think ive lost a game in this elo where it has been anywhere close to even in laning phase, i've only lost when the 2 other lanes on my team feed 4+ kills before I can even start to roam from mid/bot. I can practically boost whatever champion stats I want because I know it doesn't even remotely matter how good I am on that champion, if I play them on a winstreak then I will always win. I'm at the point where I know exactly when my lose streak is coming up.
Why was my first ever season of league of legends just better overall than my following 2 years? I play like 5 games a day I shouldn't have gotten worse over these years.
deLuxLaser1 voteslosing streak will happen, if your mmr goes too high. you could monitor it using many different sites now. when it gets high, take a break for a week, dont play, and then come back.
World Ender1 votesI just played two ranked games where I had an AFK and a flamer in the first one (also everyone fed except me, lul) and in the second one I had and inting mobi boots Rageblade Bard running it down mid and the ADC who then said 'fuck this I'm out' and AFK'd. Both games I was super fed early, but how are you supposed to win 3v5? Of course I'm not free from mistakes, but if I had literally had any other team members those games would have been easily winnable. In the second game I was 7/0 by 15 minutes for example.
I don't play ranked much, I mostly play normals. In ranked In low bronze because that's pretty much where I was placed and like I said I don't play ranked really at all. In normals I play with and against silvers and higher (and very frequently have golds, with plats sometimes). The fact that I have a higher winrate playing normals vs golds and plats that I do in ranked playing vs bronze 4 plebs should say something about how difficult it is to climb when your teams do not give one shit about playing to win.
SpongebobIsLife1 votesYeah, I wouldn't mind if the skill of the enemy players increases, as long as my teammates skill increases as well. The way riot has ranked set up makes for a very frustrating experience that makes you feel like so much of the game is out of your control .
ƒrenet ƒrame1 votesWow, chances of losing next 3 games after a win spree is 25%. Must be rito trying to keep you in bronze.
COBRA C0MM4NDER1 votesdon't Q with me...for some reason I'm a -3lp in 5man flex.
yeah, NEGATIVE 3 league points.
(there's bad days, and then you have 3 bad games and see that...I'm trying to climb the buttery slopes and crashing into the sprinkles every time nearly))
DevlinCrow1 votesThere's not much Riot can do, they don't know that teammate you're paired with is going to afk, or a troll pick.
I would like to face people my own division though, I am Bronze but do well vs Silvers/Golds. Look my match history if you don't believe!
But me going toe to toe with a Gold player in lane doesn't stop my Bronze team-mates from getting stomped by Silvers :(
