"High elo" community

Is this a rage post? Maybe a bit.

I just don't get it anymore... 85% (I've literally been keeping track for the last ~40 games) of my games are shit. An absolutely awful, depressing waste of time... Idk if it's the mmr system raping me for duoing with a buddy (how dare I) or... I've never been banned, i always play games seriously, i usually win lane (I'd say ~20% of the games lost are my fault, the rest is adc not even knowing how to attack-move - LITERALLY). Something really needs to be done about this Diamond V situation, cause it's absolutely brutal (at least when you main support like i do).

Why can't we have a system that takes into account individual performance (what is being built, KDA, time spent in base, objective participation... you know - actually trying to play the game) and have that affect the lp gain at least somewhat. Like, instead of losing 20lp if my vayne is playing from a laptop on a train (happened today), maybe i lose like 15 or so.

I feel like this would help fix the flaming and raging, because it's fueled a lot by frustration and expectation of lp loss.

Idk, I'm done with EUNE. Gonna buy some rp, move west, try a bit more and then decide if i quit altogether. I just refuse to believe that I can play the game as much as i do, as devoted to my main as i am, as studious as i try to be about it (like watching coaching videos, watching my replays etc) - and still have this horrendous experience. Being humble and self-critical is good, but in this case it would be self-abuse.

TL:DR Horrible D5 community, rito pls fix, qq sadlife, #makeleaguegreatagain

"...(at least when you main support like i do)."

There's your issue. Man, I feel you.

Well fuck that, supports make 20% any given game and are very important. If i wanted to feel like an Egyptian slave carrying the weight of an Empire i would've been born 3k years ago. If you devote time to perfect a role you should be rewarded, not forced out of it, esp if you play meta champs. It's not like i bring out vayne support or some shit...

Dude, I feel ya. It sucks being a low elo support main. The sad part is the only other role I am confident in is ADC, but if I put adc primary and support secondary then 4 outta 5 times I get support. Supports just can't carry a game in low elo (or the lo-lo as my buddy puts it) because low elo is all about brute force and stomping them out. CS, wave manipulation, hell even efficeiency of gold buys and power spikes don't mean much because low elo just can't respond to force, especially overwhelming force.

Higher Elo gets better, but it's never that great. You can set up every kill and have 100% kill participation, but never get the glory.
