What is with level 30's

So i wrote another discussion up here about my problem with ranked at the moment saying about how currently i cant even see my silver 1 promotion as a great thing. Rather i see it as an annoyance because i know that the very next day i will just get demoted back down to silver 2 mostly because of the players i will be matched with. Now i was not saying it is all their fault, I make mistakes as a player and i accept that not every play i do will be Faker god tier level. But i want to address something else i have noticed and is a very big problem and ties in with my previous statements about my problems with ranked. And that problem is fresh accounts.

Now when i say fresh accounts i aim it to the accounts that are around (30-90) and as of late i have noticed way way more of these accounts popping up in my games to the point where it is every single game now i have a low level account like that. And yes i do understand that it could just be smurfs doing this and i have had that where i look and see lets say a level 45 riven top lane who then suddenly goes 15/1/8. And sure as a low tier silver player it is annoying that someone from such a high tier has to come down to low ranks and literally whip my team around the map. Now i have been playing since around late season 2 early season 3 and i have been pretty much playing almost every day since then so i would say that i have a pretty good understanding of the game and i know what counters what and how to deal with problems that i face in the game. But what i can not deal with are these brand new accounts that are again (30-90) who come into my game and just loose lane horribly.

For instance the game that i just had as Jax jungle, I did not even have a chance to really start ganking before she was already 0/3/0 at 5 mins in, Mind you she was against a Fiora so once she gets fed especially that early in the game there is not a whole lot you can do. And when i had chances to sneak a Gank in to try and help her out so the enemy top lane Fiora would not snowball into an unsinkable killing machine. Well our kayle would not listen to pings and instead would farm while fiora was chasing my half way down river before she either killed me, or our mid lane veigar stunned her which gave me enough time to escape. I would then say something like "What the h**l Kayle why are you just farming instead of helping" to which she would reply something along the lines of "Well i did not ping it so why should i help". So instead of helping me kill the Fiora to try and stop her murder parade she instead just decided to farm top lane and then feed the fiora even more to the point where a single Q from fiora would pretty much do about 40% of my health and there was just nothing i could do. And mind you this all took place around the 10-15 min mark so i was no where near the mark i wanted to be to fight her, i was only around 1/2/2 and i could not face a 6/0/4 fiora.

Well our kayle ended the game with a score of around 0/8/4 and did not even act like nothing happened, And it is such a frustrating thing to have to deal with in ranked. Me and my friend who have been playing league for years and years at this point having to be matched up with someone who if i had to guess took a glance at the worlds event and decided that they wanted to try and it and jumped into a fresh rank game. Or possibly they have just purchased an account since apparently from what i hear those are pretty cheap so i would not be surprised if that was also a factor that is playing into all this.

But please leave a comment if you have been noticing the same things going on because it is just honestly destroying ranked at this point. As some pro players have even said league is just a coin flip at this point. Even if you are a god tier player you can still easily loose the game. And i dont think it should be like that what so ever. And i also know the mmr system is very screwed up along side with all the other problems. Like i remember that i actually went on a 17 game win streak once and i could not believe it. If i remember right i was only playing kasai and kalista bot lane with my friend going support. And apparently even to the league stats system you can look at when i look at mine for Kha'zix apparently i am on track with challenger tier which i was surprised at. And you would think that the system would notice that and match me up with other high tier players who are on winning streaks and such. But sadly no they match you with these low level (30-90) players who have no idea what thy are doing and just totally snowball the game in the enemies favor. There are people who are on 20 game loosing streak and they have to match me up with them because i have high mmr and they have low mmr and they think it will balance them out, When sadly what happens most of the time is it will just bring my mmr down till i am on their level.

There is no possible way riot does not know that their player base hate's how it works. They need to do something about it and soon because i feel like at this point in time league is going down a path that it wont return from. But anyway please leave a comment if you feel the same way about anything i have said or have any remarks you want to add of your own. And if you disagree or have any questions then please comment them and i will hopefully reply to them the best i possibly can.

Your one and true oinky boi, Pigalishus ;3

Riot seems like they don’t care, you don’t like it? Quit. If you continue to play, that’s all you but complaining about a system that’s been complained about constantly isn’t going to change it now that you’ve complained too

Edit: I didn’t downvote you btw
