when people get mad at me for smurfing but dont understand how plat+ works
i just tell them that being a 10 percent win factor in the game lowers your expectations and makes you tilt easier.
there are so many factors to winning a game in plat + that your skill becomes irrelevant. heres 5 off the top of my head
- abusing the fotm broken champ
- tilted teammates
- boosted teammates
- teammates lagging
- jungler being better than mine
- bugs that kill you ( riven q bug thats still active after 2 years)
- premade top with jungler vs solo player (me)
- toxic teammate that tilts the living shit out of u and costs u the game
- teammates with no awareness
- person that rage quits after 2 deaths or a bad support or such
would u look at that, i got carried away!!!
on a serious note, i smurf to know that i can carry games. to know that im actually still a good player i smurf so that my thoughts of high elo being hard disappear. high elo is all rng. if you believe other wise, you're either an lcs player or someone who isnt high elo. high elo being d3+
