It seems that ranked queues have more and more people that have no clue what they are doing. I mean sure I'm in bronze, but bronze doesn't have 100% monkeys. We got some humans in here as well.. Anyone else get paired with potatoes 99% of the time?

dont you think YOU are the potatoe? i mean lets be real you say 99% are potatoes... and you are the 1%? by the amount of complains i see on reddit and the board, there are at least 10% not potatoes but all those 10% think they are actually 1% lol

Potato have different connotations depending on who you are, for me that means they have a particularly slow computer , From your context it sounds like a potato is a person who plays badly , you have to remember that we're still even now we are in a placement carze so that means you're going to be playing with people new to rank. Also since MMR got reset People who got bossted got drop there as well

Yeap, i saw some new potatoes.

A braum that doesn't know what an aegis is, even though we are going against 3.5AP champs. Gnar keepings Building bruiser against a fed yasuo and yi. Bad decision making where a fed fed team refuses to engage. No one building MR against a fed diana etc etc...

But that is hardly anything new, as most people in bronze build srraight glass cannon (though the braum not knowing what an aegis is did supprise me). Probably due to the soft reset, the boosted, the new and the "i don't belong here" are all mixed in the same batch. Gets a little better once you've adjusted to the "lower elo playstyle", which is alot of communication, alot of pings, alot of patience, alot of "picks", so that you slowly crawl yourself back to a group that knows what they are doing.
