Dear Riot

Season 1 til Present player here. I made a decision this year to try out a more competitive style of league, by taking ranked seriously. I climbed from Silver to Gold. Pressed on and got Plat. Recently, I stopped playing as much because of my 2nd job. THIS is where my games take a drastic turn. Up until Gold I - Plat V, I feel that my teammates were evenly matched 75% of the games. Dynamic queue can obviously skew this a little, but its kind of what you sign up for when playing with 3+ people. I get that. But now, I feel as if the teams are completely biased. Solo Queue, Duo Queue, Dynamic, it doesn't matter. My games are insanely biased and I don't know if this is your way of punishing me for playing less or what.

What I do not understand, by ANY means, is why the lowest MMR player on my team is literally like the handicapped kid that doesn't have to participate in PE, but has to be in the classroom for the whole period. Except instead of just letting him read a book or do homework, you guys make him PARTICIPATE. And you stick him in my game. We ALL know the guys I'm talking about here, the one that is in your elo that makes you CRINGE. Like, you can look at his match history and be like "damn, this guy needs to stop playing 80% of those champions."

How did he get to my rank? Was he boosted into GOLD or PLAT? Is his DOG playing for him? Did his little brother steal his login info?

Well Riot, you have officially turned me from an average player, to the most tilted, salty, POS, toxic monkey I've ever been in my life with this awful matchmaking system. It baffles me that for 4 months, my teammates all shared a common goal (for the most part). They waited patiently for plays to be made, would make good plays themselves, or would just turtle and farm up til late and let their champs scale. Sometimes mistakes were made, but hey I get that NOW, I get:

1-9 GP by 20 minutes, telling me this is exactly how GP games go but we still win, when he could've just missed 30 CS and not died X amount of times 1-8 Blitz that picked into Alistar because he "feels like playing blitz," goes Coin into Eye of The Oasis, then only hooks Ali the entire game 1-9 WW top that just cant stop picking fights with the Garen Teammates that will just keep overextending, lie constantly about how they died, complain when the jungler doesn't gank, and just all around be unaware of whats going on in the game around them

Just small examples of people I've played with recently.

Don't get it twisted, I've been so tilted from this demote spree I've been on, that I've gone full retard and played some champs I regret playing. Not like I'm feeding my ass off(well... maybe a few games), but still very lackluster in lane or jungle. Is this how these players are born? 1 person tilted a million years ago and from then on, its like TILT DOMINOES? Its almost like you took a guy, paired him with the most tilted people in his elo 10+ games in a row, then stuck them with me for 10+ games. Because I now feel more tilted than I have EVER been on the internet. And that I saying a LOT.

I'll be the first to admit that in the past 10+ games I've literally given up in champ select. Am I wrong for doing this? Maybe, but it just seems like I am 100% wasting my time when someone picks a champion they just "feel like playing" even if they're picking into a counter. Even if they've never played that champ in ranked before.

Maybe you should be required to have Lvl 6&7 mastery emotes to be able to play a champ in ranked. Or even 5 would be a better experience. Because I am finding myself becoming the EXACT type of league player I hate to play with. It absolutely sucks. I go into it with good attitude, but after 1 game of someone going full monkey on me, I just have 0 tolerance. I could normally deal with people doing poorly early game, because sometimes we can turn games around and win because that person could snap out of it and play with the team. It is rare since I've demoted back to G2 that I find players who do poorly early that communicate well and turn the game around. In Bronze - Plat elo, people throw more than I could possibly imagine. And normally just saying that to people ingame seems to lift their spirits. I just seem to draw the short stick when it comes to teams these days.

I'm contemplating selling my account and saying farewell to a game I've loved to play for around 7 years. THAT IS A LONG TIME! And I don't want to say goodbye to this game.

Forreal though Riot, you need to either tell me I'm being an absolute IDIOT and that its my fault I lose 75% of my games and to shut my mouth -OR- tell me you're working on a way to make matchmaking a better place. Tell me there is hope for ranked queues. Tell me there's more of an incentive to work with the team. Tell me you have a magical untilting wand. Anyways, I just wish ranked was a little more competitive. Hopefully it comes around. Hopefully I come around 180 degrees with the tilt. Oh, did I mention I even changed my name to this garbage cuz of tilt? Yeah. I'm the Tiltlord. Sue me.

Thanks Riot, Put me out of my misery
