You went 4/12, built pure glass, didn't buy any wards and were gifted Silver from placements. Looking through your entire ranked history you belong in Bronze.

Irrelevant to the claim at hand. Maybe try to avoid the off-topic flaming, hm?

no Neo has a point. You do not get to do badly make poor choices and then get to say "IT IS ONLY A GAME". Hell I would argue a case of assisting the enemy team in these cases. The point is to try. Never warding and going complete glass (on non ADC) can be consider throwing.

At some point those before those 12 deaths you have to ask your self what am i doing wrong?

EDIT He is doing ranked with t2 runes!!!!!!!!!!! WTF

And if people do what he's doing, they're going to lose and sink to Bronze. That's what it's there for.

Calling them toxic erroneously and raging at them the one game you have to deal with them isn't something you can blame on them, or how they're playing or what they say about it being "just a game". It irks me in matches, too, but I just do my best to mute them and move on. I won't have to see them again because it's clear they're going to go down.

Evaluate yourself.

do you know how hard it is for a Silver 5 to drop to brone 1? His MMR has to hit B5 before the drop to bronze 1. Its literally is almost impossible for that to happen. At b3 MMR breathing would get him through a game.

You need to check your self. You obviously do not know how the system works. Just cause the guy got lucky and placed silver does not mean he should be their. This is an edge case where the system failed, and failed hard.

People drop tiers pretty constantly. You act like having mmr a full tier below your current position is hard to get. It isn't, and people get dropped tiers fairly often. :\ MMR and LP act independently. You don't have to have 0LP to go below your tier's mmr. You could be S4 and have B3 mmr, it just won't last if you keep playing in a way that drops your mmr so much.

people do not drop tiers all the time. People drop divisions.

that link is for current numbers. I actually track ranked. Bronze and silver used to have equal membership. Currently silver is 2 times bigger. This is caused the safty system riot put in. To hit bronze 5 mmr from silver is almost impossible.

It is possible for other divisions to fall more easily do the skill gap being smaller.

Lp and MMR are not that independent. You can not gain LP when your MMR is lower than your current rank.

You must have been losing your shit last season when it was impossible to drop tiers.

But since you're using your own imaginary frame of reference and not a comparative one, I suppose it doesn't seem like it happens often to you, does it?

Angry MonsterAug 17, 20141 votes

Sure imaginary, cause it happens to Diamond/challenger players it must happen to everyone else.

I am telling you that drops do not happen that often unless people just stop playing ranked. Droping out of a _____ 5 is almost impossible.

Serpents EmbraceAug 18, 20141 votes

"Imaginary" because you're not basing your frame of reference on anything but your own opinion on the matter. It's great you fancy yourself an expert, though. Keep at it.

Angry MonsterAug 18, 20141 votes

Wow when did you become me and know what reference i was using?

I love kids like you thinking you know it all.

Angry MonsterAug 17, 20141 votes

you failed to mention his t2 runes....

welcome to the league where most people can't take a loss and cry about it. its a game and they need to figure that out. it was made with competitive fun in mind not flaming and raging to your own teammates thinking it will make a difference. thats how you start death by typing situations.

Serpents EmbraceAug 17, 20141 votes

"Toxic" is a buzz word. People will throw it around for pretty much anything, regardless of whether or not they understand the definition.

Angry MonsterAug 17, 20141 votes

Why are you doing ranked? You do not even have a complete set of t3 runes. I am astounded that you went into ranked like that.

You obviously were carried into through your placements.
