I am on a 14 game losing streak. This isn't due to me not playing to the best of my ability (though i could always do better), This isn't due to me not at least attempting to carry, This is because of the current match making system. No matter what game it is that i'm in, even if the 3 of us are together that are good, do really really well, we will lose the game. Because there are either A) Stupid people feeding on our team, whose reflexes are slower than a baked sloth, or B) the other team has god tier players that simply stomp us, with champions to little to no counter play. Its never an even match, its not balanced. Its not effective. I really think that this coming season, Riot should focus on making a more fun and balanced game, some quality of life changes if you will.

One of their main focuses currently, is eliminating toxicity. What they don't realize, is that in whatever they do, they breed toxicity. By letting changes roll through that are clearly not balanced in order to make the game "fun" they breed a sort of player that feels cheated, and lied to. So in turn every game they face against these champions, their hatred just grows a bit stronger. Personally, I flame every Teemo player i come across, because i find them annoying, and i imagine only arrogant little 12 year olds playing him. For some others it may be Yasuo, for he can dash into the nth dimension. Or even Darius,Because obtaining a Penta dunk is now easier than ever. But if they were to stop trying to create Fotm champions, and actually look into making this game balanced, i can almost promise that the toxicity rate would drop incredibly. Do you ever see people complaining about TF? No, Because even though he is an amazing champion, that has seen load of competitive play, he has counter play. I can appreciate a good TF player, because i know his Kit isn't as strong as it could be, and that they are using his strengths and weaknesses to their advantage.

Another part of toxicity i feel, is the fact that players are pissed off that they never feel at the same level as their fellow players. Currently the mmr system is based on wins/loses and whatever else, and in order to make a game, they take two teams whose mmrs are about average and pair them against each other. What it doesn't take into account, is boosting, number of games played, Average KDA, Average builds on champions, effective use of champions, and so on. This leads to incredibly unbalanced teams, because someone who has 1500+ wins, could be pretty average, or someone who has 30+ could be god tier.

You flame every Teemo player you see just b/c they play that champion? You deserve your 14 game losing streak.
