While we're at it, can we do something about finishing a game with 99 LP? http://prntscr.com/e7cof5

KyoiaFeb 11, 20171 votes

Everytime I've finished a game 99LP, the next win will count as the first win of your series.

notice me Sin piFeb 11, 20171 votes

so basically if u r at 99LP, win = that win counts as a win for ur promos lose = that lose doesnt even count as part of promos

according to that, i'd much prefer to end up at 99 LP than at 100 LP, since i dont get as penalized as i would be if i was at 100LP

well can I get back all the games I would of won because of trolls?

ManevrăFeb 11, 20172 votes

that was riot problems,not your luck,nor the thing u cloudnt be positive and not flame trollers

PaquayFeb 11, 201752 votes

Fine, but then you have to give back all the games you won because there was a troll on the other team.

People don't ever stop to realize this is a two-way street.

definitely ok with that. I can think of way more trolls and afkers etc on my team then on the other

Thats just common psychology. Of course you are gonna remember the times YOU were screwed over. Not so much when its the other team.

Supreme Senpai69Feb 11, 20177 votes

I think it's mostly the fact that you don't know when someone on the enemy team is trolling. You don't really have a way of knowing unless they complain in all chat, and half the time people say "report x for trolling" for no reason so you disregard the other half as well. I'd definitely remember the enemy team trolls. For example one time last season they had a Teemo support that didn't buy sightstone. Not really a troll but could be included here and I totally remember it.

But I'm sure there were trolls that I just didn't know about so I couldn't possibly remember something I never knew. It always bugged me when people said what you said because while it makes sense it just wasn't true for me personally. But now I'm thinking it's just because there was no way of knowing how many trolls they had

cuddlykitten4Feb 11, 20172 votes

And because of, as pointed out above, natural human psychology.

MFTORANK1Feb 11, 20171 votes

I remember every trolls, I always report the trolls on the enemy team because my mindset is ''I could be matched with that person in the future and I really don't want that''

GGLineaRFeb 11, 20171 votes

I'd at least turn out with a positive win rate then. I always get matched with and against people who are better than I am. ;v;

Sraeg2013Feb 11, 20171 votes

I don't mind.

In my case gains would heavily outweigh the losses.

TraeeeFeb 11, 20171 votes

if you arent a troll then there is automatically a better chance that the other team will have a troll and you wont

cute but votes don't have a value in these boards

Surr20plzFeb 12, 20173 votes

Have they ever reverted anything from something like this happening?

I'm betting no.

idontgiveabotherFeb 11, 20172 votes

I feel your pain, I've had promo games ruined by afks but not this. I don't think they can do anything even if they should...

kagepaladinFeb 11, 20171 votes

I had a game that was remade provided video evidence of me walking to mid then top lane after the riven refused to go top, and when we remade I lost lp. the support member on the boards said and I quote in verbatim " you didn't do enough to warrant not getting hit by the afk software".... it's like a 3 minute game what am i supposed to do first blood a teemo as malphite news flash that shit ain't happenin XD

MFTORANK1Feb 11, 20172 votes

Lost my promos to s1 because of trolls and went all the way back to silver 3 lmao I feel you bro

idontgiveabotherFeb 11, 20171 votes

Yea I could probably be in gold right now if not a little closer but you know how it goes... 2-3 week time period (estimated) felt like I was getting an afk every few days. It also wasn't the games where I was at 50lp in the middle of the division, one of those fucking games was to determine if I was going to get demoted or not.

MFTORANK1Feb 11, 20171 votes

RIP - Well I think if you were gold last season with DQ you have a lot of chance to make it to plat this season, it's just gonna take 500-600 games roughly. Good luck with your next matches !

idontgiveabotherFeb 11, 20171 votes

im about 300 games deep and I just finished my promos to get into s1. I got another 6 divisions to go :P

Went 2-2 in promo to Gold, then had an autofill support troll and lost the last game.

Then went on a 11 game losing streak and ended up in Silver 2.

MFTORANK1Feb 11, 20171 votes

holy molly rip, good luck getting back there silver is an hostile environment.

Lern 2 ward.

Sraeg2013Feb 11, 20172 votes

Well, on average I have as much or more wards placed than my goddamn support, so that's can't be it.

Unless you are implying I should get Sightstone as a mid laner.

Then I'd have twice as much wards placed as the next guy in my team.

If you ward enough you can reach challenger. And that's a rock fact!

CowseedFeb 11, 20172 votes

PSA It wasn't his team that got screwed over. It was him and him alone. So comments saying 'then you would have to give back promos of other teams with a troll' realize how ridiculous that actually is and those who upvoted ditch the hive-mind mentality.

I had the same thing happen also during my series, but it was entirely because my computer bugged out. I'm assuming it also happened to you because of something on your own end, so I'm not saying we deserved the loss in a promo game, but I am saying it's probably somewhat reasonable because the issue was on our end not Riot's (at least for me, and I would heavily assume for you to).

I'd like all my games back cause of people that dunno how to play...happens too fucking often too me. Pains of trying to climb with their ranking system...

cuddlykitten4Feb 11, 20171 votes

I just got screwed around as well. I went into a lobby, was there all of three second, then got booted and told it's because I didn't pick a ban or whatever. Well, that's cute and all but there was still like 15 seconds in the "pick the champ you want to play" phase. There wasn't even the option to select the ban button if I had even wanted to do so. So now here I sit, waiting five minutes to play a game when I should be in one right now.
