GAH! Riot Please Give Me Teammates Who Actually Want To Win When I am In Promos...

Failed my promos for Gold for the same reason I always do, my teammates refuse to win... The obvious decision is right in front of them and they choose to do the stupidest decision over and over again. "Jump into all 5 of them with no backup? SURE!" "Group? Fuck Off I want to split push with no vision" "Dragon? Baron? Turrets? What are these things you speak of, i just want to bronze chase through their unwarded jungle"...

...and why does this only happen in my promos? on an 8 game win streak and then i hit my promos for Gold V and suddenly all my teammates have never played a video game in their life...

Lost my last game of my promos against double jungle Katarina... Olaf and Trist decided they would like to fight the Katarina over and over again, sure enough she got 5 kills pretty early on. Then she and their jungle ekko just stayed mid and pushed down 2 turrets while olaf farmed his jungle... Since Olaf had no pressure top and mid were lost. I tried to get them to just farm and push out lanes, but they absolutely had to fight, even when me and Trist got 2 turrets bot lane and i took 1 turret mid lane....I had the most pressure in lanes because i was the only one pushing down objectives to get control... AS SUPPORT JANNA...

Irritated that I can't complete my promos because 1 person decides they want to lose and decides to feed the worst possible person to feed on the enemy team (Riven in 1st loss, Kha in 2nd loss, Katarina in 3rd loss).

All I ask is you give me teammates who actually want to win, how many wins do they have in their last 10 games, how well did they do in those last games, are they toxic in chat, are they in their promos or close to? These questions should be considered when someone is being queued when in their Promos. I am not saying give me the best of the best, there is having a bad game and trying to lose, plz stop giving me the latter.

I don't want to come off rude; but from your match history (Last two Janna games) it seems like your lane was the issue. One of those games the team almost has 50% of there kills from you alone (1-12). Looking at everyone else; they may not have been in such a bad position if you didn't feed so hard.

Try minimizing your deaths in ranked; that's my advice. It's very easy to blame your team for everything, and not work on self improving. You now have a free win going into your next promos; You should have no problem if your capable of getting out of it.

Edit: Also no the excuse I'm support (Death's don't matter) it really does; in a season based off snowballing.

just venting btw, helps me release a bit of anger. Hard to sit here and watch your teamamtes do everything in their power to make sure you lose, especially hard when I am in my promos. I get tilted a lot, but these past losses have put me so far above my norm...

Lol, I was just in promos, Syndra died to Fizz in the first 3 minutes. Said she was gonna feed. Was then 2vs16 in kills in 10 minutes (Us losing obviously). She didnt care, and continued to feed/go to enemy nexus. Love losing my promos man.

Lol, I gatekeeper peeps on purpose when I see them in promos. Not with intentional feeding or throw plays, I just pick stupid shit like Fiora support to drastically lower our odds of winning knowing they can't dodge.
