Let me tell you of the joy of platiinum elo games. Every game is competitive. The players never well....almost never complain about anything. trolling is at a minimum. You may have a silver on your team but rarely. normally plats and high golds. The games are serious and well fought. You will get 365 days of joy. League at its absolute finest.

NOW GOLD

I am a grad student. I was unable to play any ranked last year. i finished in gold 5 from plat 5. Well.....i have now played a few weeks of games in gold elo. Normal.....is absolute hell. I mean at first i was like....its just a few bads. But gone are the days of good games. I don't get teams of even golds. I will sometimes have 2...or even 3 silvers. or even a fucking unranked. These games are unwinnable. You can do nothing. If you have a gold teammate you can work a little with. But if there is more than 2 silvers. its over. These fools have no idea how to do anything. Their league knowledge is ....its nothing. its true horror. I wanted to see how bad it could be. so i ran and ran games and man.....omg....every game is terrible. Its just want to die. I remember the joy of last season and how fun it was. to now....i can't play league unless my friends are on. I have never lose so many games. I am a sad panda. also i am having to get used to the toxic community. something i never saw last year. is now A DAILY OCCURRENCE. THE WORST PART....is i feel im joining it. I am getting so mad....at these fucking silvers. I want to start flaming them. But i know i shouldn't. so i say this. I am trapped in hell. But.....on the bright side. I have never been more motivated to get back to plat.. I will spend another season in gold elo normals. its a few weeks and i can't take it. I may not do as well in school but i love league and this is a dagger in my heart right now.

How to fix this? Please when playing norms or even ranked. just put me with my rank. give me all golds every game. or if im in plat all plats. Silvers and bronzes need to be in their hell. they do not deserve anything. They 10000000000% deserve to be there. Not just from their lack of game knowledge. from just wow holy fuck toxicness. I curse ever silver. as they are the doom of any game im in. ive never hated a like....league more than silvers....and now im forced to have multiple ones in every game. FOR A YEAR. let that sit in.....I GET A WHOLE YEAR ......of fucking silvers in my norms.

So....i end my rant. I just lost another game 3 silvers and an unraked and i exploded and needed to vent. I feel much better. To the silvers all around the world. I don't wanna be a dick. BUT DIE IN A FIRE.

Part of the issue is that in the Fall when preseason hits league is pretty much unplayable. For some reason Riot forces everybody to go through 10 'placement' games to determine where they should be but it's a flawed system. To start they force everybody to drop 1 or 2 steps down for some bizarre reason and then if you went through a bad spell during those 10 placement games there is a good chance you get put waaaay down. The end result is pretty much every ranked game is mixed with Bronze all the way up to plat and higher which makes for a terrible game, every single game for both the new player who is Bronze and the experienced player who is Plat.

It's just short sighted of Riot, I understand preseason but why re rank everybody? It's not like we just wake up the next day and all of a sudden we should drop to Bronze from Gold, it just doesn't make any sense and it creates an extreme Toxic environment that takes months before it goes away (things even back out).

Quite simply there is no logical reason to do placements and rerank everybody. If somebody is playing in Diamond in season 7 I sure as hell don't want to play against them in preseason. I know they are 1000% better than I am and they are just going to destroy me and make for a terrible game for everybody.

Riot should go into preseason, let everybody keep their rank and then once preseason is done, start the next season at their rank. Over the year people will climb the ladder and people will fall, there is no need to mix everything up and create a toxic environment for everybody.

You are joking right?
