Normal vs. Bronze

Why is it that I can maintain a 60+% win rate in Normal games on my second account, but here on my main account, I can barely maintain 40% in ranked and I can't get out of Bronze? Well, I shouldn't be out of Bronze, because I play at Bronze skill. As it stands, I'll get to B3 or B2, and then I'll have a severe losing streak and fall back to B5 within one afternoon.

The Debate: Are Normal players really worse than Bronze players, or is it the opposite?

After playing over 1000 normal games, and going on 200 games in Bronze this season, I've found there to generally be more feeders in Bronze, more afk'ers and rage-quitters, and more people that think they are good at the game when they are total garbage. Normal games are far less toxic.

It's not about who is better. I can mess around in games and still be good. Still, I won't be as serious as I could have been.

TBH. People just don't care in norms. There is no real penalty for losing so people try things they wouldn't in ranked including builds, risky plays, and off meta picks. In ranked people are trying to win (and the lower your elo, the harder they try and end up making more mistakes than they should)
