Why Do People Like This Play Ranked?

It hasn't just been this game, there are so many people that don't know what the fuck they are doing, yet they play ranked. Why? I really don't understand. I wish there was something that actually measures your playstyle, and if you don't pass the "good enough" mark, you can't play ranked. Because these scores are ridiculous, so many deaths. And the worst part is, the opponent team was all AD. Any good team would have been able to easily win this with armor.

Really don't get why people just can't practice in normals and then once they are good, go to ranked. It's really discouraging to even play ranked. These are honestly the type of games that hold the good players up from actually ranking up.

You have less than 50% kill participation. Running from all the teamfights to preserve your KDA doesn't mean you're better than them.
Half of all players in every match will lose. Sometimes the enemy just snowballs and you can't stop them. Are half of all players just supposed to stop playing Ranked after every game? There would only be 1 person left in the end, and even though Mastery Yi is a Highlander, that's not the kind of game we're playing.
Do you want me to pick out a game where you were the one with a negative KDA? Everybody has those games. We should make a bet; if I find one, then you quit LoL, and if I can't, I quit. Ok? Sounds reasonable, since you think those people should quit, right?

I feel like you are the type of guy that flames peopel when they do poorly.
EVeryone has bad games. Quit whining about it and move on to your next, or quit playing league.

Matchmaking has been broken. Just stop playing ranked if you can't deal with playing with shit people. I know it sucks. I know it should be fixed. But it isn't, so either deal with it, or stop playing it.

I mean, there are games you played horribly, too.

That 2-7 Leblanc, 4-8 Skarner, 4-7 Riven, etc. Why are you playing rankeD?

Except what are they supposed to put in as a "good enough" mark? Take a written test on the concepts of league? Win a game against proven players? any of that is silly.

Neither should you be angry at other people for not being as good as the people they're facing. Those people are just going to keep losing till they're matched against people they can beat. Also, on any given day people play differently and some games people are on tilt or frustrated from real life things and can't focus. So the enemy team snowballs. You lose the game.

Instead look at yourself, focus on how you can carry harder. If you can't carry in B3 you're not going to make it at B1 or S5, I say that as a former B5 member currently in silver. I recommend carry.gg as a good site for analyzing your games and why you're losing. Check out leaguecraft 101 for tips on trading and strategy. And remember there are just as good odds the bad people are on the other team as well. Exploit them and try to shore up your team's weaknesses

I play a few games with u, ranked too. When i did we had a troll team, since i usually play brand you might remember me. But u weren't a troll or a flamer, it was these retarded ass teammates so the people calling him troll/flamer etc dont know what they are talking about. He is good player

Its not so much that they are bad its that there are so many trolls until you get to plat.. i have heard countless stories of trolls and throwers even in gold rank.

They had a fed tristana, which is a stronger lategame than vayne, they had renekton countering darius top, and you had a teemo.

Sometimes the other team has 1-2 people that can outplay yours and there's little you can do about it.
