Promotional Series Policy

Hey, i had a suggestion and i wasn't exactly sure where to put it. So basically, it has recently become obvious that there is a policy at riot games where whenever someone reaches promos they start queueing them with intentional feeders or awful players and they also never give the promo player their preferred role. idk if maybe this is to make rising in the ranks more challenging or what, but i think this policy should be done away with, as it makes the game really frustrating and no fun to play at all. i don't have the exact numbers on it but i'm pretty sure it leads to suicide as well.

My prayers are with you if you are in promos, hopefully we can petition away the policy before next season! Cheers, Summoners!

They do have different matchmaking in series. It attempts to put you with other people in a series... the unintended consequences of this may not be certain.

Personally, I win a LOT more games outside of promo's and it's due a lot to people that shouldn't advance. Not sure if it's exactly as the OP described but I'd rather it just be the normal matchmaking.

maybe its lesser that your team mates are awful, but your opponents have gotten better cos your MMR is higher when you are on a win streak (the only way to get into promos), thus they can capitalize on your team mate's mistakes more.
