lets just say today hasnt been very "lucky" keep getting players that dont belong in the elo on my mtea (they wouldnt lose w a smurf if they did belong) http://gyazo.com/ae8e21d1b0d49910398560200a3d46f6 http://gyazo.com/1e26261cebf44e16a3dff7431cf13559 http://gyazo.com/8a512336dbadd6428898256118bbeee5 http://gyazo.com/a5810230e6f8e80d1da605377dd5c846 http://gyazo.com/c9c2ebcd18df0c5d3be0b55ddc81f205 doesnt matter if you get 90% of the kill contribution and every objective they still find a way to lose LOL

Chance is part of any game. Hell it's a part of life. Welcome to reality.

You overestimate your ability to carry games. It doesn't matter if you're smurfing, you won't win 100% of games (not even 80%) unless you're high diamond whose expertise lies in controlling the game (and not so much kills) - in which case you might win ~80% of games.

Unless they have <50 games, people belong roughly where they are, assuming they're not rapidly rising or falling at the current time. Maybe the people on your team were having a bad day. Maybe they were all in unfavourable matchups. Maybe you were being toxic in the chat and you killed their will to win. Who knows? Either way, it's arrogant to claim that people in your game don't belong in X Elo.
