Does Riot hire people to throw promotions?...

I'm honestly thinking this is true.....statistically in my experience it's just too bizarre not to think it. In silver 3 I won 4 straight games to get to promotion, upon getting to promotion I get AFK's from the start to finish in both games and lose promotion. I get back to promotion, get my free win, and DESPITE an AFK.....we were able to carry as a team and win.

From there....I win 3 games, lose 1 and win 2 more to get to Silver 2 promos. First game, AFK as usual and we lose. Like....I don't get AFK's in norms, I don't get them in any ranked games aside from promotions. It's like Riot wants you to lose promotions just to spend more time grinding back to them. Anyone else experience this? I coined the term Riot's Law ( better than Murphys law ) with my friends, as they have also experienced this.

Nah,so far i failed only 1 promotion out of like 12. Its just your mentality cause promo are important to you, so you are under pressure

It's probably just because you're not good enough lol.

Being under pressure, or not good enough has nothing to do with people not connecting to the game. I guess you didn't even read the post.
