My soloQ MMR has dropped from Plat to Silver I'm still being paired with new players I'm still being paired with bronze Every idiot believes chasing kills is the way to win No objectives are taken No lanes are pushed Enemy Team Aced "Better recall to base" The back pings are ignored People are highjacking pregame lobby "Me top, got autofilled" "ME MID" Oh sweet memories of season 4, they return My teams fuck and inevitably I'm falling down a slippery slope of madness My mind...my MMR. My Abilitiy to climb. R.I.P SoloQ

I dunno if I'm simply just playing badly or if matchmaking is actually fucking me. My mains have either been changed or nerfed into the ground and trying to pick up new champs is just...tedious. Someone send help, man down. An ally has been slain.[zombie-nunu-bummed] [zombie-nunu-tears]

EDIT I know your "Rank" is governed by no one but yourself, but to those who will probably try to quote that; you can correct your mistakes but you can't correct everyone elses, you can't stop someone on your team from rage quitting, you can't stop someone who has already made their mind up to int from inting. From watching my own replays, I know my mistakes and mechanical skill and game knowledge alone isn't enough to carry a team that doesn't want to win. I've been on teams where even the most mechanically skilled player who I tried to let "carry me" was inevitably beaten down by the enemy team who will work together other than going in 1b1 or constantly argue.

After all this is a "TEAM GAME". Not sure how else to really see things, if your team doesn't work together you're not gonna win.

At least you used to be plat :c I envy that. I've only peeked Gold 5 in season 6. I do feel it, though I don't know if being Silver says anything about that.

Also I've taken time to have some diamond players tutor me in pay-for sessions through lol academy. Despite us duoing as he played on his silver smurf account for the session, we still lost a match, and it's happened multiple times with other coaches. I'm afraid you won't be able to carry all of your games alone, and however you got out of elo hell is something you're going to have to do again.

Good luck, stay frosty.
