Matchmaking is a autowin/autoloss algorythm

Designed to float all players at 50% winrate. Only thing that interrupts the algorithm is freak accidents like disconnects, bugsplats, power outages, etc etc. Causing players to generally be between 47-53% winrate based on their luck.

What is the point of playing this game? The outcome of every match is fixed.

Its just the Boards trying to find an excuse for why they cannot climb.

Note that Riot has never ever confirmed or denied that they use the 50% forced algorithm in matchmaking?

50/50 win loss is a mathmatical certanity >>>> riot didnt make the skill based algrorithm system,some really smart guys did >>>> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elo_rating_system . winning midlane and having a 53% winrate is enough to always be climbing the ladder.

This system ONLY works if all participants play to win.

The system fails BADLY when we have what League is where over 50% of the games has 1-2 Trolls/AFKer/Drunk or Stoned and then a Smurf who is playing the system to stay in the lower rank.

If your theory is right, explain my sub-40% winrate?
