How can we even play this game?

Hello community,

at the beginning, pardon my english, I am not a native. Well... here is my story - I play this game for approximately 8 years now. I was never good - I admit it. I'm old, 28 yo atm. Maybe I am slowly losing it. I don't know. But seriously how to play this game? How can I climb, if in every single game I have afkers and INTENTIONAL feeders. From my promo to silver III after 2 days I ended up in... Silver V. I hat support warwick with teleport and ghost who went 2/12 telling us to stfu, supporting orn who decided to afk at bottom tower and 1/8 tops, 1/12 mids etc. Oh and one guy who kept saying leroy jenkins rushing mid 1 vs 5 and finishing the game 2/16 or something. My question is HOW? how can I climb. Please do not tell me about duo partners, etc. I play support, my adc cannot land last hit. I play adc and in EVERY single game I hear this sweet voice - FIRST BLOOD and I see my top teammate going 0/1, then 0/3, 1/6 etc. This game is impossible. I think it is designed like 50/50 win chance. In my normal games I have around 1450 wins and 1430 losses. What is the sense of playing this game? Fun? come on - every1 says fun, but what is so fun in losing 10 games in a row due to inting and afking.... and then a riot survey pops up -> do you think riot does a good job fighting misbehaving players? You serious guys? How is it even possible there are players liek pokimone, tyler1 who are diamond or something. I've never seen gold in my life. And during the games I am not even saying enything. But I just feel I reached this point, where I cannot deal with it any more. How to play this game guys? How?

the better joke is : i had the same problem , half or more of my Games last season was made by afk´s. that i still reached 52% winrate feels like a wonder. No riot didnt. Never seen any1 of my reports realized. all the players still queue over and over again in my matches. .... but now to the part whats the joke in all of this sh*tness.

i´m silver 4 and get queued against diamondplayers up to masters. Thx rito games that i couldn´t climb bcuz of your handle with some players but still match me against diamonds pls. seems fair as hell . (btw the diamonds aren´t the problem ... only the afks i get)

{quoted} I think it is designed like 50/50 win chance.

Well, yeah. Of course. Unless you're playing against bots, the other team is made up of human players like you. Imagine that there is always someone just like you on the other team, wondering how they can advance with such dopey teammates. One of you has to lose. It's the nature of the game.

It's talent and teamwork that can overcome the odds. You have to try to improve the former and/or try make friends to get some proper teamwork going. Even when you're losing, you're gaining experience to improve your performance; unless you just give up when things go poorly, in which case you're not likely to go anywhere in the ranks.

Personally, I'm happy playing against the bots. I'm just not competitive.

in the long run there will be more afks and feeders on the enemy team than there are on your team. they help you climb.
