Man im so tilted to the point i really am getting pissed at playing league of legends. I am so close to diamond 4 promos i get fked by either my internet provider CIK or short power outage and it takes me 10 mins to reconnect... I played a game today my team and I were clearly a lot better but i dced cause of fking power outage for 1 second. I was garen and my team's eve, anivia, ashe, and trundle were doing amazing. When i try to reconnect and it takes me ages cause of fked connection errors and stuff plus my computer takes a while to start up. I get so tilted to the point i just rather not play league of legends. After that game my team loss due to me being completely useless mid game and the enemy team kept getting inferno drakes........ LIKE FK, to top that off I also got low priority queue like now i have to wait 5 mins b4 i can start a game. My point is how do people deal with this and climb to higher elo. I know i could had been higher elo if i stop trying to play my worst role mid but this completely pisses me off how i get punished for things that are out of my control. My goal was to hit high diamond but it seems to be impossible with all those dcs during games and trouble reconnecting. Well im gonna stop playing rank from now on cause its never fun to lose when you don't win rank.

your asking people how they climb with shitty internet connects, and toasters for computers. well the dont, they dont climb.

you need to buy a new computer and get reliable internet connection or stop playing online games.

get a backup battery, connect your PC, modem , router and monitor.

Power flicker for 1 sec? no worries anymore !!

and CIK sucks. it's cheap, but it sucks.

You get what you pay for.

Honestly, you do have control of what's going on. If you're having internet issues and you know you can disconnect randomly during games, I suggest you take a step back and stop doing ranked until you sort out your problems. As much as losing isn't fun for you, it isn't fun for the teams you play with having to fight 4v5 because you decided to play even though you know you have unstable connection. I honestly used to have a crap computer and shared my internet with 3 people so I lagged to hell and back and hovered around 30 FPS and 200+ ping. I still played ranked, and after about 20 games or so, I realized that it wasn't going to work. The problem isn't the game's fault for not running properly - it was mine. I purchased a new laptop, no longer share my internet + have a better provider and the difference was almost night and day.

Basically, losing isn't fun for anyone but if you have shitty connection, that's on you to fix it by finding another provider. Try to not ruin games for yourself and others if you know you're going to be dcing. I know it sucks, and this may sound harsh, but you're honestly the player that people don't really want on their team until you have a more stable connection. Good luck with your connection/on the rift~!
