My experience with league of legends

So after not playing since the season started I thought I'd come back and play. Last season i was d3 and I probably could have made the climb higher but I ended up have real life to deal with so stop playing as much. Anyway. So in the first 10 of my "provisional" matches I had 3 games where players were afk for either my team or the others. in two of the matches I had two teammates who didn't even connect to the game. i tell my self "its ok this is low elo after provisionals Ill be in a better place". Low and behind I get slapped into gold 4. Literally the first game in pregame lobby guy locks in poppy and says "afk since I don't get adc". Second game I play my bot goes duo smite and proceeds to feed until we ff. 3rd game was normal suprisingly. 4th game teammate afks for 14 mins before comming back to say "sry mom made me go to the store". And I proceed to play 20 or more games over the next week and I'm sitting at 0 points gained due to people not connecting for flat out afk over and over. Yes there was like 5 REAL games where no one would quit where I'd lose or win and felt it right, but for the rest its just teammates feeding then raging out. Half the time they die once and give up. I don't see how people can climb out this hole when every single game is the same thing. rage,afk,dc. And I understand its such a small sample size but it was enough that I don't even want to keep playing. I don't feel like playing 100+ games of people crying or raging before I can play good games, that's not fun. RIP
