(disclaimer) thankfully i op.gg'd them before the match started so i knew to dodge. but i'm genuinely shocked, this isn't right ON ANY FUCKING LEVEL.

WHY THE FUCK IS A SILVER (let alone one with a super negative wr) EVEN ON MY TEAM??????? WHY???? YOU DONT WANT SMURFS TO SMURF BUT YOU'LL GLADLY THROW SOME SILVER INTO FUCKING PLATINUM GAMES.

SILVERS. IN. PLATINUM. GAMES.

the difference in skills is so big and even the thought processes are different, it's not fair to the silver or to the platinum players.

it blows my mind even more to think that me, an adc main, got autofilled into support when the silvers op.gg clearly showed they are a support main

LIKE WTF RIOT???

Challenger 450 LP Currently. Got placed with a Platinum 3 and Plat 1 during a late night queue. For reference, that is literally more than 10 divisions below me for the plat 3. From Plat 3 to Silver 1 is 6 divisios below.

Gotta bring that 57% back down to a reasonable 50%. Riot can't have you stomping games when your skill clearly indicates you deserve to climb.

It bothers me that riot matches you with players 2 leagues below your league due to their matchmaking but I have a “skilled” (he does well when i play with him say what you want to) bronze player on my friend list i would love to play with him deliberately i cant due to league gap but i will have random bronze players in my games instead despite this. Like really?

brroooooo its just mmr! like, ur mmr should be better. thats silvers mmr is just too good bro u gotta deal with it! hes mmr is plat level so he can play with plats!!!

real shit im fucking bronze 2 and i had a gold 4 in my game tonight.

not to mention, "because my mmr is so good!!!" i get to always play against 5x high silvers, while i am bronze 2. doesnt make any sense that i have to beat people whos rank it might take me 50 games to get to ; i have to beat them to rank up in bronze while they can beat me and get closer to gold.

shit makes no sense thats why i just troll in ranked now.

games are such a tossup nowadays, even if u trooll ur basically just as likely to win anyway. its not about skill anymore

Why is it when i mentioned the exact same thing in a thread about matchmaking I got downvoted hard? Now the community suddenly has half a brain and doesnt think silvers should be in plat games?

edit: I also saw this thread made before and downvoted

I have had multiple games this season when i made it to gold, with multiple bronze players on my team. Every time this happened, I lost the game and has caused me to fall into silver. It is complete bull that a bronze player is placed into a gold game or a gold promo game. EVERY TIME I HAVE ONE, THEY GET TRASHED AND CAUSE A LOSS! FIX THE MMR PLZ! I CANT PLAY THE GAME AT THIS POINT!

That's 7% too much winrate according to Rio apparently xd

Yup. I asked why are 100% of my ranked games vs unranked players? Never got an answer. Riot just ignore us now. I deleted this game. I hope they lose another 50% of their revenue this year.

Quinndetta3/2/2019, 5:54:32 AM3 votes

Gold Jung consistently getting bronze players in my games. I op.gg the match and figure out who on the other team is bronze and then camp the hell out of them. New ranking system is great for that let me tell you. So easy to make people afk or throw. And I know I'm being a dick but it's riots fault not mine.

Glaricion3/2/2019, 8:11:51 AM3 votes

i op.gg'd them before the match started

If I cant queue with someone a certain tier above or below me, why can I still get into a game with randoms of said tier?

buy more RP maybe Rito will stop this bullshit and their inarticulate balance and broken as fuck matchmaking

Yeah, and another problem is often when someone isn't Silver, they were Silver for the last two Seasons but took advantage of the messed up LP gains at the start of the Season. Ranked is in a terrible state at the moment.

#MATCHMAKING #IS #COMPLETELY #BROKEN #SINCE #SEASON #START

I made several threads about this but no one seems to care. 90% of games are just coin flips.

The worst thing is: I don't get these broken unbalanced teams at night with 6 minute queue time. NO! I get them every day with game invites after 5 seconds in Queue (EUW/Plat1/Jungle)! WTF Riot?!

Aazzlano3/2/2019, 1:36:33 AM2 votes

Lol one time a few years ago, I queued up for ranked (D4) and I got autofilled into a D1/Masters game. I've also had LITERAL Bronze players MULTIPLE times in Diamond ranked games (obviously you can't duo with them so matchmaking put them there 'manually')

no clue what the problem is but something has been wrong for a long time.

Riots MMR system is totally broken for anything under challenger

It thinks that that match up is not a 4v5

You guys and ur fukin elos. The only division that's beyond everyone's levels are Masters+ anything below that is the same shit until you hit below gold. You have trolls, you have dudes having an amazing focus day, you have your premades who know how to work well together, you have your one trick legends and etc. And a win is going to depend on all these variables coming together for that said game. Anyone above gold can cs well and play well giving those circumstances. Now you get to Masters+... Now that is a whole different ball game.

I was laning against high gold players in lane, I was Bronze 1 at the time, luckily I still managed to out lane them somehow and won my promos for Silver 4

Im silver 3 and i find it crazy to see my games end up 15-3 at 10 almost every game. Never a close game every role is tilted to 1 side and this is not OK. Not OK for 1 teams adc to be bronze 2 and other teams is silver 2 and sometimes it looks like that across the board. I want to know what Riots overall play is for this system because whatever they did clearly did not work.
