Can't wait to see what riot does about promos next season.

Non-promo games: None of the following: trolls, ragers, flamers, toxicity Promo games: All of the following: Trolls, ragers, flamers, toxicity

1st promo game: Top lane zero damage shen says GG at 5 minutes after first blood. Refused to group with team. 2nd promo game: Riven complaining about darius ban when said nothing about banning darius until after it was too late. Says she's gonna troll. Says ff at 20 or ima afk.

So basically, fuck you riot.

Games like that happen. I think it's a bit shortsighted of you to think that promotion games cause toxicity. I'm also sure you're aware that correlation isn't causation. Your allies and enemies probably aren't in promotion games with you, so they aren't likely in a high stress situation, you are. Just take a breather and try again, you might have better luck next time. Good luck.

Those are just random unfortunate matches. Whether it's a promo or not is almost never a factor.

It's just more noticeable to you because the promos matter to you more.

But you are right, promos are BS because they require a 75% winrate. You have to win to start them and then you need to win 2/3 games. That's 3/4, or 75% and is absurdly high.
