For the past few days, I've returned to Ranked gameplay after getting some strategies and refine my strengths as a player... And because of trolls, AFKers, and Toxicity, THIS was the result. I am so fed up with these kinds of people ruining the game for people like me who legitimately want to get better at it. There desperately... DESPERATELY, needs to be a feature to kick people out of a lobby when their toxic/trolling during champ select. Because of these people, I just cannot seem to escape Silver V, and don't judge my skill level because I know that's what a lot of you are going to do. Something needs to be done about this, and it needs to happen soon, or I'll have no choice but to boycott buying anything Riot related.

So according to this, you're a Silver 5 (sitting at 0LP) player with literally no prior experience with the game. All your games have horrible scores, all your champions have horrible KD:As and negattive winrates. Your MMR is low enough to match you with Bronze players in your games, even players that aren't level 30 yet(in normals). You have a 35% winrate in Ranked, and despite only playing the most mechanically simplistic champions for most of your games, you still manage to feed badly.

Stats taken from your games in the last 25 days, excluding normals:

  1. You've managed to round up an impressive 160 deaths across 26 games.
  2. Your games are actually pretty balanced, with like 5 exceptions, all of them range from Bronze 3, Silver 5 to Silver 3 across both teams.
  3. You ward a fair amount when you play support, and that's good. But 90% of the enemy teams that win ward aproximately 250% more than your entire team.
  4. Whenever you play anything else appart from support, even your teams' ADCs ward more than you do.
  5. You don't know how to pick champions. You're getting countered left and right. You don't lock Zed into Azir, you just don't.
  6. Your teams lack engage and tanks? Don't pick Sona support: Leona, Braum, even Thresh are better choices than Sona, when you lack such important power.
  7. You don't know how to itemize; when the enemy has 3 AP(mid,jungle,support) and you're getting countered so hard, you don't rush Black Cleaver, you buy Maw of Malmortius.
  8. Your CS is pretty freaking bad, whenever you don't play support, you just don't farm. 21m 36s game playing as devourer jungle Yi, and you finish with 84cs?! And once again comes the fact that you don't know how to counterpick; in that game the enemy had Illaoi, Thresh, Gnar, Kalista, Zed and your team didn't even have a tank/bruiser. You don't pick devourer Yi into that team-comp, you just don't. Gragas would've been a much better choice for example
  9. All players perform pretty badly. Be it winning or losing, both teams feed eachother like there's no tomorrow and nobody really farms anything but champions.

Again, indicative of your level of play, this is what happens in Silver and Bronze, especially the lower the division. I know, I'm Silver too.


and don't judge my skill level because I know that's what a lot of you are going to do

Don't patronize us if you want to be taken seriously. You raise an issue with Ranked, you're going to be scrutinized. It's the only way for us to know if you're full of shit and talking out of your ass, or you actually have some pretty valid points and a solid argument. My conclusion is that you're not full of shit, but you don't have anything important to say either. The reason being you're not exactly a great player in any way(you need to play more to improve) and you're pretty inexperienced, but so are the players you're matched against. So the argument of being help back by shitty teammates is kind of invalid, since surprisingly everyone is on the same skill level. I never thought I'd say this to anyone, but this is one of those legitimate cases where you have to actually understand what you're doing wrong yourself and improve uppon that bases. No, the couple of trollgames I saw are not enough to warantee a legitimate argument.

You just need to take a moment to relax on your own terms, and not lash on the NA Boards.

I assume Riot is just being lazy about it. It can easily be done, but they use "it could be abused" as an excuse. They could have a multiple-force-dodge situation to get them banned if they troll multiple times rather than just getting trolled themselves by say, a premade, or just plain add a report button in the champion select or heck, even on profiles, so if you do have to dodge, the guy that trolled would be appropriately punished, possibly harshly, and it would be extremely rare.

The thing is, everyone above you was able to climb, despite having games with those same trolls.

A kicking feature is likely to be abused when champ select doesn't go one team's way, and that will have unintended consequences for the game's health. I won't attack skill level; just because you aren't challenger doesn't mean you should have to play with trolls, for sure. But the trolls will continue to exist. That isn't Riot's fault. They just breed faster than they can be reasonably banned. If you don't have the kind of attitude to report them and move on, then this game really isn't for you...
