Give us a second chance riot....

So I'll just bring up a topic that has been told sooooooo many times and many will even ignore it cause it's been talked about alot. ELO hell is real, if you haven't been in bronze you wouldn't know, it's easy to be a smart ass and say you are where you belong, ima say this tho, if you had a good duo partner, made it to plat or diamond last season, you came back this season and you did a 5-5 in provisionals and got back in plat or diamond right away. If however for what ever reason you sucked last season and you got in bronze, you did 8-2 in provisionals and got back to bronze... How is this fair, shouldn't elo reset, everyone get placed anywhere from s5 to g1 based on their provisionals and climp up or down based on what the diserve, i mean if you were good a year ago and no you aren't anymore you'll still be placed in platbor diamond but if you sucked last season and now you got better, you will still be placed in bronze or silver. I admit i sucked during last season, i had no experience in the game and played whatever champion i bought in ranked, i fed sometimes, flamed in chat, never warded, turret dived and got in b5, as i got more experienced i became so much better! You know what tho, i gain 9-12 lp when i win, i lose 19-23 in a loss.... How is this fair??? I must win 75% of my games to see any improvement, well easy to say but add a couple afks to that, add a couple people feeding to that, add a jungler who can't smite to that, add a jugler who doesn't understand how important dragon is, add a person who plays on a 10 year old pc with 15 fps and 150 ping and tell me if 75% is possible.... All i am asking is a chance to a fair mmr, fair lp gain +15 in win -15 in a loss and i will be silver in a week, and gold in a month, that is guaranteed!!! I currently own 109 champs in this account so i cant start over.... I thought than new season would place me in silver with even lp gains/losses but no riot doomed me in bronze...

I ended last season B1 with around 75 lp then i got into this season and went 8-2 in provisionals and was placed in B2 so i have little sympathy for you. I Suggest you find a strong duo partner and try to climb out you will be better for it. Someone who has actually had to climb out of bronze is not only better than those who haven't but they also appreciate their rank even more and are less likely to troll or afk. Its funny because everyone knows how frustrating it is to all in the game when someone trolls or afks yet we have so many people doing it which amazes me. I feel that if we each take the time to control our anger we can all get out of bronze. Teamwork is the key to success. Good Luck

That's kinda the idea. They want you to work at improving. If you improve marginally, you won't see a difference. If you improve drastically, you will.

You are right bronze is nightmare because bronzies make it. People have no respect for bronze. I do respect it, i just think it's time to move on. I will do 25-3 and carry my team to win, next game I'll do 17-3 and win again, then ill do 15-2 and win once more. In the end i have like 27 points, then ill go to the next match do like 14-6 and lose because bit lane gave two doubles to the enemy adc and jungler, they gave a dragon too, and i can't get past the feeding, after the loss my lp is 6... This is why i am so furious, i cant always get 3 game win streaks. Some times I'll win more that 3 in a row but ill lose the next two cause of afks and my lp will go back down. I'll give you an example, last week i was in a match, the team was doing good till our jungler says: 'i must go guys, i am really sorry but i have to go watch a movie, i am sorry once more, i really am' and he just leaves the game. I mean ye i know some will say that 4v5 is possible right??? I know i have carried a 3 v 5 with trynd before, but hey, if i was c9 hai id have a shot, the thing is it's bronze, a silver can't win the 4v5, a goldie can't win a 4v5 so whay do i have to win a 4v5 just to get out of bronze....
