S4 to B2 12 game lose streak.

So, went from S4 to B2 after losing twelve+ games due to people leaving or general trolling, AP Xin mid was my favorite, but honestly most of the loses are just from people afk or leaving/DC what have ya. It seems unreasonable that I would have this much bad luck. So what's the deal? And does anyone actually do anything about the afks? The game is kind of sad now, and I don't really care as I am just killing time till BnS releases, but it is sad seeing as I use to actually enjoy this game. Now every game is a matter of who is lucky enough to not get the afk person, or leaver.

Are you sure you have nothing to do with it? You have 2 games where you sold all your items (1 of them you were 1/13/7). AP Nasus, multiple double spirit visage Galio games, bork + rageblade + tri force evelynn (with ignite/smite), 2.02 kda over your past 15 games. I also only see 1 of those 15 games where you had an afk player, and it looks like your average game time is over 32 minutes...

I'm not sure the blame is really on other people here, or at least not entirely. I think if you worked on improving your own play and stopped worrying about what other players are doing you might have more success.

It may appear that way but it really is not just about luck, however luck does play a small factor. I was able to climb out of bronze and silver by simply putting the team on my back and always looking for ways to improve on my mistakes that game.

Luck does play a huge part in this current pre-season. I managed to get up to s2 a few weeks ago where I was met with very toxic gold players who intentionally fed, talked a lot of shit, and were generally assholes that riot still to this day have not punished (I kept tabs on them thanks to op.gg). It turned me into a toxic player (suspension ends jan 1st) because I finally started talking back to the toxic players in the post game chat, asking them why and just telling them they suck for being toxic.

I would suggest taking a break, playing heroes of the storm or just stick with normal games right now (what I plan on doing when I get back) and just relax, play things that make the game fun again, and hopefully before the season starts, riot will have fixed their major thunderlords balance issue, actively figure out why people are toxic in ranked and deal with the problem instead of just doing a pure punishment based system. (Example: You can not fall below a certain rank, and it's easier to gain back your rank if you are de ranked because of bad games, something that riot should implement more than their failure of an MMR system .. Loss 22 points, win 17 example.)

"Hmm. Doesn't have much of a defense, does he?"

"No, Bob. I'd say he doesn't."
