Terrible Ranked System.

Lyle McDouchebag·1/4/2016, 8:53:10 AM·1 votes·620 views

This is my first season playing ranked. I was placed into Gold IV. Not bad, not great. Good, I'd like to say, but nothing spectacular. I've played 25 games in total, losing 14 and winning 11. My match history is as follows: 7/7/2 7/6/9 18/2/12 11/2/0 9/4/6 0/6/14 (support)

Those are my past 6 games. All pretty decent. I lost all of those, due to my team falling behind. Therefore, I lost LP. Ergo, I got deranked to Gold V. I don't understand a system where players have to be punished and dis-encouraged to keep playing, because of their teammates. Yeah, I'm salty. I was really determined to work my way into Platinum. But now that I have been deranked because of other players' faults, and am under threat of being pushed into Silver, I don't even want to play anymore. So please, someone try to begin to make me understand the terrible ranked system this game has. Cause to me it seems like banging my head on a wall.

You must first realize you are terrible. Once you accept how terrible you are, you can improve.

If you still haven't figured out that KDA is meaningless, you deserve far lower than Gold V. That's just truth about this game.

Welcome to League.

Have you thought about the impossible task of developing an AI that would assess your strength per game?

I lost nine of ten pre-rank matches, and began in bronze 1. Half of those games were surrendered because of chat fighting. Half were losses because of others going /afk due to my pick or build. Two games were thrown by the same intentional feeder who claimed to want to start at the lowest possible rank. Three were legitimate losses. Now, did I deserve to start in bronze 1? Here is a better question. Why should any of the millions of players care about my ten games?
