IDK what you guys did when you did the past 2 patches. However, this season has been the absolute worst season I have ever seen. I'm pretty sure it started with the Lethality buffs and now it's snowballed out of control. If your team gets first blood, you are most likely to win the game or snowball the lane then go aram the other lane for a 4-5man lane dive at 10mins in. The first team to do this tends to be the one that comes out on top. The worst part in all of this is that once a team gets dove their is no coming back at all. If I wanted to play ARAM I would have qued for it. EVERY game I have been playing this has been happening repeatedly. The worst part is in Duo / Solo it feels like the enemy somehow has a 4-5 man premade. They are perfectly rotating together and just stomping everyone. No matter what I see the same technique happening each game. My team never is the one performing this though it seems.

I went from Silver 1 this past week down to Silver 4 now. There is no way I should be in that MMR yet here I am. I can lane fine no issue but as soon as bot falls I'm getting dove in mid / top 3-4 man and there is nothing I can do when they are super fed. The snowballing is completely out of control and I have been discussing this with a lot of friends lately. Currently we are discussing moving to a new MOBA at this rate because after reading the boards and experiencing it first hand in games, it's very obvious the balance team screwed something up.

This is honestly what stops you from climbing. You have the mindset that "I don't belong in this elo because I am so good at this game," when it is pretty much the exact opposite. Just looking at your past twenty games, I haven't seen any amazing scores or games where you personally carried / won lane. Maybe if you focused on improving, rather then condemning other players, you wouldn't be stuck in one of the lowest divisions.

But hey, if you want to move on to another game because you are butthurt, go for it man.

League is not that bad right now...first blood does not decide the game whatsoever. I have so many games where i potato and give first blood then i come back and win lane. Also dont blame your team for your losses cuz it's a team game it's not "well atleast i won my lane but too bad my bot and mid fed" that's not how it works. If it so bad go play something else already. Im happy with league and riot is addressing alot of problems in the past patches. Give the balance team a break. Mobas arent easy to balance.
