[A tragic tale] My quest for gold

I wont make gold, but on the bright side....I will never have to play ranked with a 3-4 man goon squad of derps ever again

worst. season. ever.

BEHOLD the tragic tale of a fall from grace as a naive optimist goes from 78 lp this afternoon to 0

featuring a game with a first time ranked game ever olaf and trist! who went 0 5 0 and 2 9 0 respectively that game the supp bard had 3 times more dmg than the olaf and trist combined link

That was just the start, followed immediately after by a veigar doing his 3rd placement match, who went 2 9 0 link

Then we come to the highlight, a 3 man russian premade "challenger smurfs" who went Draven Rango bot lane, and tryn top link The botlane started intentionally trolling very early, whats worse is they also voted no to the ff 1 13 3 rengar 1 10 6 draven

the game after that was pretty uneventful just a ryze who dc for 15 min mid game and a tahm top who was flaming pretty tame compared to the last 3 games

at this point i had 5 lp and had given up all hope. last game fitting enough was another 3 man premade. they messed up the swap so their supp was playing mid and vice versa both mid and bot fed hard early especially bot, 23 4 4 graves on enemy team, This game i wasnt doing that hot during lane phase either so cant complain too much.

Thus ends my woeful tale with the silver lining. I would like to stress that even though it may seem like this is your classic "my team is holding me back" QQ sob story. It's entirely my fault i didnt make gold. My philosophy is

"life's not fair, but sometimes it's unfair in your favor" Sir Peter Ustinov

leading up to these games i was on a hot streak with some great teams made up of randoms (some premade im sure), these things come in waves and had this not been the last day of ranked i would have probably stopped playing after the first game. I havent played ranked almost all season and these past 2 days have been a perfect reminder why

Just came to vent hope you at least got a laugh out of me venting if not feel free to downvote away

Cant wait for the return of solo queue for those who made it my hat's off to you best of luck next season

Indeed it does happen, I have found that a lot of people tend to troll closer to end of season. They get on smurf accounts and just troll because they are a holes.

Wish you luck next season. I got to gold 5 promos on my own, but then enlisted the help of 2 gold 3 buddies to help me win the last 2 promos needed.
