You need to get rid of duo queue or fix it.

I'm in silver elo. I just played a match where my whole team was silver. The enemy team had a duo with one of them silver, the other gold 3 and plat 1 last season. How is that fair? Of course, the plat dude stomped us....why is this allowable? it's SOLO QUEUE, you shouldn't be allowed to DUO QUEUE especially if your partner is in a completely different division.

sightstone and no sweeper

instead of complaining that you are playing people who are better than you, improve so you become better than them.

Duo q is in a better spot than it was earlier this season at least there's a restriction to your partner having to be at most one division above or below . Riot assumes that if you're within one division of each other your skill level is similar .

riot assumes a lot of false things. what is the point of having divisions if "your skill level is similar"

You can duo with someone one league away from you.

Silver can duo with bronze, silver, and gold players. Gold can duo with silver, gold, and plat players. etc.

If you aren't good enough to adapt to the enemy team then maybe stick to normals.

apparently i've adapted better than you. you should stick to normals.

Context? Sounds like you're making an immature remark to try to end the argument.

Silver can only go duo with gold players. It's unfortunate, he was platina last season, but it doesn't count now. Silver 1 player should be able to deal with gold 3. You can take it as an opportunity to learn from his plays.

Archon you really are a great representation of the pieces of rat that make it into higher tiers. GJ man, way to reinforce your own stereotype as an ivory tower rito jock-saddle riding white knight. Don't let the subject of the post interrupt your spotlight and irrelevant fingerpointing attempts. Gnar

So what I managed to gain from reading through the comments it how TSM Turt Wildr is a complete and utter rager and probably rages at his teammates in game, also probably finding anyway to blame them for any mistakes rather than himself no matter how illogical or irrational his argument may be. Then there is Archon who makes completely valid points that I 100% agree with and make complete sense, a lot of which I preach myself. Everything that Archon said is actually pretty valid and I must say, good job my friend, good job. So while I report and block TSM Turt Wildr, wanna add me Archon, I am an ADC main and I am curious about whether we might play a few normals and see how we do. I should be plat by the end of the season, but I feel like with the similarities in our mindsets, we might actually synergize pretty well. Just a thought. >.<

I also realize that my post above is not the most brilliantly organized. I hope you pardon such and do not use it to devise an idea of my hopefully decent ability to play this game from such in a more negative manner. >.<

then there is archon who thinks he's aphromoo and does nothing but roam around the forums and looks at people's match histories and doesn't provide any relevant information to the topic at hand. TOPIC: PLAT\GOLD IN SILVER GAME. ARCHON RESPONSE: NO SWEEPER 7 GAMES AGO Y U LOSE

Not really.... Clearly you did not read his entire post, or the entirety of any of them... He was getting at how if you wanted to go up in ranking, then you will be playing against plats anyway, so instead of complaining about people you should be better than anyway if you want to go up in the ranking, focus on improving and getting to that higher ranking. His simply provided a way that could be an area of improvement, and your reaction was denying any reason for you to improve, as if you are already the best in the world and everyone else needs to do worse for you simply to make sure you reach your throne.

Hihi, Just trying to see which match you were referring to, was it the Yasuo match u played against the LB? I tried to match the timing on your post and your match history and saw that one game you lost lane and the your opposing laner is fed.

if that is the game, and i apologize if it's not, but the highest ranked on the opposing team was gold 4, who was gold in season 4 too. I'm not sure where you obtained the information that he was Plat 1 last season.

Again, i apologize the match i thought wasn't the one you described.

The difference between Gold 3 and Silver isn't that big unless you're on the lower end of Silver. If the guy was Plat last season but can't get anywhere close to Plat this season, his season 4 rank is irrelevant. He's Gold, not that far ahead of you.

Improve - I've played against a ton of people who completely outmatch me - I've got only about 100 PVP wins but I've laned against a bunch of Golds, Plats and even the occasional Diamond, and I don't whine. Yeah it's tough and can feel unfair but it forces you to learn - play against enough Gold 3s and you'll be able to beat them eventually. I'd rather try to learn from playing against them than complain. Complaining is what gets you stuck in Silver forever.

Btw I don't know what the specific game you're complaining about was but someone linked this game in your match history in this thread: http://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/1966972438/40754287?tab=overview

I'm afraid to say that your vision control in that game was utterly embarrassing. There are so many things like this that are absolutely brainless to improve on, you should really be putting more effort into that than you are into moaning about matchmaking.
