So i play ranked only nowadays and i really suck and i am currently B5 0 LP and was climbing suddenly really fast near the last weeks or so before the season ended finishing at B4 73 LP i believe...realize i hit b4 promos but failed sadly...Now it's preseason and with my hard to come finish of improving myself yet still bad, i felt really confident in passing my preseason promos and possibly reaching B1 at least in the flex queues...that did not happen...i don't know why but ever since preseason started i've been utterly losing more than i have been winning...tried different champs other than my main Kalista (she really isnt that weak guys, lel i actually know how to use her) since for some reason i was losing with her and i didnt want to ruin my kd and win ratio with her that i built up since s5. I was losing a lot with the other champs too....i even tried the hyper carries and meta picks and was losing....i finally pick up corki...my mechanics are pretty good so i tried him in ranked because fck this game and won i believe but still ended up feeding...but after i was getting better significantly after 2-3 games. I feel confident with him and i was recking ppl and still am but i still lose and his burst now is lit. I fcking wanted to quit league but then i was like lets play a few normals...normals is so fcking ez now and im in bronze V...with my mmr im probably placed with bronze V shiets too and i reck my lanes but still fcking losee...im so tilted now...i took a break, 2-3 days, come back and lose AGAIN!?!?....now im not saying im the best player but wtf...im not the only person on the team, it cant just be me...i make mistakes but very small but i feel so bad and useless because i cant even carry scrubs in normals and im playing fcking burst corki who made the whole team switch too fcking armor YET MY TEAM DOESNT BUILD ARMOR PEN OR MAGIC PEN....fck this game...i cant have fun anymore...i really want to get better and i try to...i even try to have a positive attitude and keep ppls spirits up but it doesnt work..when ppl feed early i feed even in rage and over tryhard mode trying to fucking win...nothing works...i have nearly 200 games in bronze FIVE i believe and its bs....i might quit league....gimme suggestions on how to get better please...how to carry please...i'll love you forever

thats a lot to read, but let me say this, the reason your losing more often in pre-season is because you are being places against higher skilled players more often as alot of people are playing in placements at the same time.

so dont worry, just give it some time and you should see yourself playing vs similarly skilled players.

Because of the MMR mismatch in Flex Queue, you got reset to the original starting point (pre placements). But remember this is only Preseason, the rank you accomplish now WILL BE RESET AGAIN! The rank you get in preseason does only influnece the placement in Season 7 to a SMALL extend! (only your starting point in season 7 is affected by Preseason ranks) Sidenote: 1-2 Tier drops are completely normal in preseason.

I.E.: You were Plat 5 at the end of the season, were placed high Silver after placements, now got placed low Silver. If you now climb to Plat again, you will then only be placed in low Gold at the start of Season 7!

So dont worry to much about the current placement!

TL;DR The real climbing start with the start of Season 7, the preseason can only give you a head start, nothing more. But now the games should be better balanced, but the reset still sucks :/

Personally what I would do if I were you (what I did when I was bronze 5) is spam normals. The people in normal games are much more skilled (usually) so it can be annoying but with time you will become a better player. After playing around 500 normal games at bronze 5 I climbed from bronze 5 to platinum 1 over 600 games.

play late game split push champs, you will be silver soon, as for actually getting good at the game, you just have to play alot of games. I was plat for the second straight year climbing from silver 5 each time because PLACEMENTS ARE AWFUL. I also played this game just a ton, which to be honest is the only real way to get good at this game. You can follow guides or unlock your screen or what have you, but so long as your are consistently playing this game you will get better. At least rank wise you can't get any worse so what do you have to lose.

But I can try to help you if you want just message me on here or wait for me to get home to add me and I can try and coach you or whatever. Gl to ya either way
