"Match making is bad" "MMR is wrong" "Runes are expensive" Excuses of why they cant climb!

Giggling Granny··4 votes·494 views

So i heard everything...

I heard excuses of people saying "Omg riot we dont have IP to buy champions that why we cant climb"

I heard people say "Riot runes are too expensive and we cant have the runes we need so that why we cant climb"

I heard people say "Riot the MMR and match making is bad so i cant carry the team"

I heard people say "Riot the trolls ruin low elo games and we cant win games"

I heard people say "Riot Promos games are bad (The first 10 ones) fresh accounts keep others down"

I heard people say "If you dont play solo carry champions you cant escape low elo"

I heard people say "Riot promos are bad why 3 games are important (Its kind of true tho but still not the problem) that why i cant climb i get trolls in my promos"

I heard every excuse...so i was like is that hard to get in to gold you know the division that everyone wants simple because of the rewards....so i try to test it

I take this acount fresh MMR tier 2 runes and i spam team focus champions....and i won and now i am gold 1 in 10 games...10 games gold 1 with tier 2 runes and tank jungler (Not cho or gragas i didnt want to make it easy mode) and i am like "Where all this problem this player face and i didnt see them?"

Oh and btw every single game i carry it...with tier 2 runes for real i spend 60 ip for runes.....

So...what does that teach us? that i am cocky piece of crap? maybe i am...but no this is a post to tell you people that if you cant win in silver and if you cant get to gold 5...then the problem is you...not riot not the team not the runes not the champions sorry but i just cant see how can someone lose in low elo...oh and btw i do lost 1 game but i was playing with plat 3-gold 1 MMR which still is low elo...but i couldnt carry it because hell it was 5vs3 with 2 legit DC after our premade top-mid DC at 13 minutes which ok shit happens...internet is weak summer is UP tempatures are high we cant blame them for techincal problems...

So what the excuse again? .....Yeah that what i though too

Why waste so much energy on this? People who are stuck low elo won't listen to you anyway and will come up with new excuses everytime. This is why some of them are hardstuck in low bronze with 1k+ games.

They play to win while they should play to learn.

I suck at the game and i know it.....but i play for only a couple hours of the day after work so there isn't much time to put lessons i learned into play right away.

"Most of them" are actually stuck low silver, considering s5 is the biggest tier on the entire ladder :^)

Why would you make a smurf and level it up to lvl 30 just to prove a point?

Giggling Granny1 votes

i only play the promos for that point...this account was already lvl 30 is the board account

kda akali1 votes

So you bought an account? You know that's against policy right?

Giggling Granny1 votes

bought an account? this is account is a new account from lvl 1 to lvl 30 just never played the ranked games..its a board accounti just saw some posts from silver players that the mmr and the runes and all that keep them low elo..so i was like lets test how hard is that so i played the promos LOL

So technically you did level it up to 30 to prove a point.

The mmr issue is real. I have had a lot of games lately where my team was silver 2, 3 silver 1's, and a gold 5, vs 4 gold 5's and a gold 3. I ended up carrying the game as best I could as with solid call and it helped that garen scaled a lot. But that is an actual issue. My team was clearly out ranked and worst, but two people basically carried the team. Wouldn't it make sense for both teams to be around the same rank instead of all over the place? Or if I beat a team with much higher MMR I should be getting more LP.

maybe the silver 2 guy have MMR gold 3? right now i am gold 1 with mmr plat 3....and i play with plat 3 and higher games...that not MMR issue that how the game work...you see the issue here is that you people actually believe that gold 5 is higher than silver 1 when gold 5MMR is the same as silver 2...unless if you have a goo win ratio which still will translate your gold 5 with gold 3 mmr...

that what the new players like you dotn understand...in season 1 it was simplier..if you didnt have 1600 ELO you werent gold...now with 1400 you are gold...you know what you were getting with 1400 elo in season 1? not gold 5 but SILVER..you needed to actually hit 1600 elo (which is the gold 1 of today elo) in order to be gold but now even with 1400 you still able to call your self "gold" which is not its silver...

So as you see the MMR is normal the real ELO is normal...the division are fucked up..and that the fault of the players and riot that make the game easier so bad player can achieve gold easier..and this is not me puttign you down this is what actually happen...

The problem is if I am playing with platinum 1-diamond 3 players why would I still be ranked silver 1? (I am not currently, but that is a dumb) That is the issue I have with the system. I have been playing sense mid season 4 also, basically half as long as the game. The mmr system is trash, probably only slightly better then the blizzard ones. Its pretty bad.

Giggling Granny1 votes

that never the case...the only way a diamond 3 player to be matched with a silver 1 is if the silver 1 have diamond 3 MMR...so in that case the whole MMR team would be around diamond...so there would be no silver players in that game only diamond and players with diamond MMR

So there is not a possible way a diamond 3 to actually be matched with a normal silver 1 player...so please..get your fact right

Matchmaking is shit. Im not saying its why I or anyone else can't climb, but it is shit.

TL;DR I need an ego boost so I'm going to smack talk.

Zero Drive1 votes

The reason for the majority of losses is simply ego. Whether your ego or another players. And losing because some "kid" couldn't let go of his pride and play out a game feels really shitty. I can and am climbing consistently but I can totally understand how people feel like you can't climb in this game.

The only one I disagree with is matchmaking, because they end up very very unbalanced sometimes (even with the MMR)

Example. 3 Gold lV 1 Silver III and 1 Gold V get matched against 2 Gold 2/1's 1 Silver I and 2 Platinum Players

The Platinums are The JG and ADC, Their counterparts were a Silver JG and Gold V adc with autofilled Gold IV supp. The theory of "oh their MMR is same overall" didn't accurately reflect the disparity in skill. If the Silvers faced each other, and both teams had an autofill/no-autofill, then this would've been more fair. As it stood though, the Silver JG (idk what his plan was) didn't ping, didn't gank, didn't secure objectives, didn't feed, but he was still outfarmed and didn't join team fights until all tier 1's were down and fights were forced in jg. And of course, the plat jg came and murdered him in a 1v1 lol And since our filled guy was supposed to be jg, but got supp, a role he doesn't main, well he's at a disadvantage against a true support player of the same rank.

HOWEVER YOU ARE RIGHT. Not every game is like that, ergo if you're stalled out somewhere in elo you gotta get better or change tactics or something. I used to be "stuck" in silver with the same "its other people" mentality. Got me nowhere. I buckled down, watched vids, practiced what I saw in bots, started doing cs drills before games etc. I hit Gold in a week

I disagree with autofill and I do believe that roles should be matched as evenly as possible, but Im not platinum yet because im not good enough to be. Other people need to own their shit XD Stop playing if you lose 2 games in a row and come back later XD
