Strings of good/bad games?

Anyone else have clear pattern in league games where you get 5-8 games with awesome teams, non-toxic, helpful people, team mates looking to win, followed by 5-8 games of toxic behavior, players int'ing, not communicating, taking advice or requests (lane pushing, please gank) as flaming?

It's frustrating because there's rarely a feeling that the playing field is even, and climbing is impossible when you get a string of good wins followed by losses that feel largely unavoidable. It's either:

My team is awesome, communicates, friendly, we pull out a win

My team doesn't care about winning, more concerned with flaming each other, shit goes down hill fast, no chance of winning

Is it a time of day thing? Is it match making? It happens to me frequently, and I know as soon as I win at least 5-6/8 games I'm due to have an equal amount of shitty ones.

Yeah, I've been feeling that lately. It's been clear in the jungle difference at the very least, 2 days ago I was getting camped with no help, now I'm getting ganks(which is great because I play champs with tons of gank assist). It's whatever though, I just focus on what I could've done better even if my teammates hard int or ff a perfectly winnable game(still tilted over that)

Same here. I've just started my promo series and I'm afraid to go farther because I'm on a win streak. Especially since this is the first time I wanted to try out ranked.

The thing is this..

You will get a cycle of games that your team is skilled and friendly.. then you will get a ruff one.. That Ruff one is key.. its to determine if you can carry a game.. if you win that one .. you will continue on your road to climb.. if you lose that one you will fall into a odd string of annoying games.

that ruff one.. you have to win.. i have a few accounts and on some i failed.. and on others i won that game.. the end results are interesting..

failing that one causes the match making to thrust you into a ebb and flow effect.. if you win you will continue to get competant team mates until the next test point.. These walls happen. you have to win them..
