Are promo games supposedly harder by default ?

I feel like whenever I have promos my game suddenly turns into a single player experience, in which my teammates are controlled by really weak AI's and the enemy team is controlled by average level AI's .

Really, what the sh*t man ?

First promo , i do the most damage , take the most damage, have the most cs, and the most gold in my team, get called useless by teammates, our last pick thought that it's a good idea to go support nunu with a corki, bot failed incredibly, our jungler vi refused to use her ultimate in certain fights because " we're idiots " . Loss.

Second promo i have to actually carry my team with a goddamn support Braum . Blocking 21431 ezreal ultimates, getting 2-3 man ultimates everytime and stunning enemy carries .

And third game, well, it's actually pathetic. I get a vayne that afk's half the game, a feeding jax at top, and a feeder katarina on mid + a flaming asshole thresh.

At least don't give me promos anymore Riot . Just let me in my sorrow in Gold II.

This system is pathetic, it let's me rape everyone in my division, because i clearly do not belong in this goddamn elo, then gives me promos, and during promos gives me penguins as teammates.

What's the point in that ?

ya just gotta carry harder scrub

Riot creates special accounts played by AI Bots whose sole purpose is to go AFK during your game, derailing petulant little bronzies who are trying to climb above their station. They have limited fuzzy logic coding, so they will say things to pass the Turing test like:

"lol ha ha, this lag, restarting, sorry guys"

"what's happening? am I adc or mid? lol."

If Riot does not have necessary AFK bots to ruin your promos, due to demand, then they will simply place them into the game immediately after your promos.

This is done to 'test your mettle' so to speak and make sure you have a really tough time passing through those promo games.
