Plz change the way you earn LP.

Why loose so many points if you loose a game, and get so so few for winning. At some point your skill is going to cap and you wont win anymore games. So why make it so hard for us to climb? I am so sick and tired of playing with people that literally just give away kills the entire game. And in bronze 5 this is all you should expect. It's like i'm waiting for a string of teams that knows what they're doing to get anywhere. I am so sick of this, and it makes no sense whatsoever. Really a game breaking problem if you ask me.

Another thing that can increase your LP gain is not AFK'ing and screwing your team like you have three times in your last 20 games.

True. But those were because of computer problems and had nothing to do with my game play. I even made another thread about my server issues.

The reason you lose more LP than you gain is because you're currently sitting on 51W 58L (Win Ratio 47%) , do you expect the system to let you move forward even tho you're behind? You will gain more LP than loss when you have higher percent winrate ratio, the system will recognize that your skill level are above your league and trying to get you out of it faster.

This is true, but doesn't this have a lot to do with the fact that most of the games i play the other 4 players aren't playing up to par? An example being one of my recent games, seeing my carries basically run back to base every time a fight broke out when they were at full health. Players not utilizing their role in the game and ultimately costing the whole team the loss. I've seen situations happen like these numerous times, and I literally had to stop maining the support role because I couldn't win games at all.

You cannot control what the 4 other people on your team are going to do. All you can do is set a good example with smart play and then try to politely lead them to a victory. Have the patience of a saint and ping to communicate.

You can climb out, I promise you that if you focus on your own play and let go of the anger at your teammates, you will win more games. I dropped all the way to under 500 ELO in season three, right before the League system came out, but was able to focus on my own play and carry my way back up to 1,100 MMR by the end of the season. (prolly would be higher if I could have played in season 4).

not really. There will be games that you lose that are completely out of your control. But there are also games that you will win no matter what you do as long as you aren't trying the lose. The reason people feel like their team is holding their rank down is because most people feel like they were the reason for most of the wins but don't feel responsible for most their losses.

You, your team and the enemy team are pulled from the same pool of players. This is true for everyone. So for "bad teams" to hold you back you have to be experience them more than others.

I think its also important to not that you don't just get stuck in bronze 5. You start at like silver 4 mmr, so you have to actively fall to bronze 5. You had better players in your games and could not hold your own so you fell.

I'm in the same boat as OP. I was gold 5 and kept getting paired with silver 3's. Which caused my low win ratio. Thus matching me with silvers turned me into a silver. so dumb.

here's a pic.

Also riot already has a system for performance based rankings. Its called fantasy lcs and champion mastery. Why not implement into the game.

If you are playing SOLO que you should be INDIVIDUALLY rated on. instead of your shitter team dragging you down

7/19/8 "Shitter team dragging you down" You zed and Vayne died way to much, with so few kills. I believe you have a part in that loss.

What do you mean? I did my best not to die and I died the least amount of times. I don't understand you when you say I died too much

If you notice, the gains in Champion Mastery are heavily weighted by the outcome of the match. Even in Champion Mastery, winning the game is more important than having good stats.

the points gained for wins and lost for losses are tied to your matchmaking rating. if your matchmaking rating is lower than your rank, the system tries to demote you to where you belong. that's why you get less for wins than you lose for losses.

if your MMR is higher than your rank, you will gain more for wins than you lose on losses. the system wants to promote you.

if you are gold and playing silvers it is because your MMR is silver. rank is actually just a cosmetic. it has no effect on what games you get in. its all about MMR.
