when your plat 3 lane loses to the gold 5 lane

what is your obsession with ranks? you haven't even played a ranked since January.

If I play unranked it's to either practice a new champ or play a different role, maybe a bit of tolerance is in order.

You aren't even ranked. Someone could be playing their main role or their off role or off champion or main champion.

Lots of things..

Well.. who cares if he lost? Wow amazing, Gold 5 beat a plat, don't see that everyday! #Sarcasm.

Everyone has a bad game and some people have a good game which that gold surely did.

It's people like you who put to much confidence on the higher ups and then your confidence is thrown out the window when you see a bad play. I bet you could of done no better then the Plat against that Gold. If he struggled most likely you would.
