Started Rank today; had Plat 5 in my game intentionally losing with his premade. I'm confused now

Can someone explain why they would do that for a lower rank?

The premade wouldn't let myself and the jg FF either. We kept trying to but they wouldn't let us. They premade was a Plat 5 and two Gold 5's. Our JG was Silver 2 and it was my 5th ranked game of promos. So, I have no idea where my rank would be.

The enemy was two Gold 5's and silver 1's.

My friends told me rank sucks now b/c of "dynamic queue". So far of my 5 ranked games I have had two ranked games ruined by premades. So, I'm looking at 40% of my ranked games are being ruined by 3 man parties. Yet, I'm punished for their intentional behavior with losses. It makes no sense.

I don't see the point in having games intentionally ruined 40% of the time. I would be okay with it if I could leave the game w/o punishment but if I do I'm at risk for punishment. You get stuck in games with these people for extra period of time that you could have played another game and moved on. The extra time spent stuck in hostile environment makes me hate playing.

Why do these groups have the power to troll and keep me stuck in the game? It makes me not want to bother with the game anymore. Is it possible to play w/o getting a premade on your team? Why do they have deciding power through votes as well? Shouldn't their group only receive 1 vote?

Should I just quit or does Riot actually follow it's ToS and ban people like this?

something to keep in mind; other than club tags, there is no way to know you are in a match with premades.

There are people like me, who'd party up and purposely use a different tag so people don't know I'm in a premade.

Matching with premades actually happen more often than you think, so I wouldn't dwell / blame too much about that 40% you speak of.

I had more premades besides those 2. The issue is with premades being allowed to troll and the hold the game hostage.

Your comment shows you think people should suffer b/c of premades so you can play with others in ranked.

hmm.. while it's true that it sucks for people to hold you hostage, it really doesn't happen that often. Plus People still do that even if they aren't premades. So the anti-DQ arguements doesn't really fly.

Most the time there are some method of comeback, just that it's not identified (maybe by yourself or others).

If there really isn't a method of winning (cos you are able to identify why you are loosing), and other are not able to see it), then might as well accept the match is lost and practice other mechanics such as zoning, map awareness and proper warding.

This is actually not true at all. There are many websites that will tell you who is premade.
