I agree with this.

I went 4/1 in lane and was doing well. But I can't over come a 15 kill darius and a fed mid laner unless my enemy laner feeds me as hard as my top and mid laner fed the other team.

If I have to get out to a 15 kill lead in 20 minutes to win games in Silver to prove I'm Gold, something isn't right.

I added up some numbers from the ranked games I played the other two nights and the KDA of my top laners was something like <1. How do you win with that?

If my lane is even in skill, but the others are heavy in favor of the enemy team, I'm fricked before laning phase is over.

Most of the games I'm in that are lost, are lost due to lack of understanding and knowledge of the game. I make mistakes, but I'm not going 1/10 consistently and constantly trying to 1v5 then getting mad when I die immediately.

Players join ranked when they aren't ready and play champions they don't know how to play.

I would tend to agree with you but I have seen this too much. Had a friend who complained all the time that silver was impossible to climb out of. So I of course told him to give me his password and proceeded to carry the account to gold within a day. It didn't really matter what role I played. I could even play stuff I had never really played before and still win. The games weren't the easiest but basically you have to take a leadership role and command your team around. Most people won't listen but if you make a couple of correct calls to start the game you will find people more eager to listen

I agree with you also. I'm not claiming there is an elo hell, but I will not subscribe to the thought that if you lose, it's your fault 100% of the time.

I can't control supports raging, taking farm and going farm other lanes. I can't control top lane consistently dying 5 times during laning phase.

Lately anytime I try to get people to play together, I just get flamed and people continue to do dumb things and further the enemy lead.

People in my normal games know how to play their champions better than ranked teammates as of late. I don't understand why.

What times are you playing at?

Usually in the evenings (after 6-7 PM).

Lately is been an absolute shite show. No one listens and everyone just does their own thing.

I'm hoping that playing a large volume of games will offset this awful run, but it's very frustrating losing games that are 100% winnable just because people can't exercise common sense.

Saw a video about the best times to play league.

1. 9am-3pm: pro-gamers,streamers (not that you'll be playing with pros but)

2. 9pm-3am: college students. Young adults with day jobs coming home

3. 3pm-9pm: school children

4. 3am-9am: school children trying to play before school. Insomniacs.

Just something to think about.

Well frick. That gives me 2 hours worth of play with adults

As a single dude with no kids, I unintentionally created a routine

-Get home from work around 5
-Eat
-Watch 1-2 episodes of whatever show I'm on at the time
-Play league off and on till 10-11.

Just started a new game. Thinking new day, lets get it.

6:30 into the game and our mid kat has 3 farm and 0/6...meanwhile enemy mid lux is 6/0, enemy renek top is 4/0..... AT SIX AND A HALF MINUTES.

I'm sorry, but my teammates are the reason I am losing games. This shite is impossible.

ETA: Game finally over. They get nexus pre 20 mins. Katarina flaming us because "How else am I supposed to learn new champ if I don't play it in ranked?"...

We lose 27-8, our Kat 0/9 with 42 farm....our top not much better. I'm literally getting this type of shite in EVERY ranked game over the last week. Meanwhile, enemy teams are coordinating 5 man dives bot lane and rotating for objectives. It's like Riot is doing this shite on purpose.

Excuse my venting, feel free to pass over my posts when you see my name. It helps me to type it out

It's so clean.

Moon still got fb all 3 games. Sven had his moments though.

They've tightened up a little bit but I feel like tsm is still the sams:
-Sven good but not great, dies in enemy jungle too much, gives up fb too much, but has good objective control and late game teamfoghting
-bjergsen and hauntzer are beasts and will carry
-bioturtle mostly solid with the occasional wt flash into their team and die for no reason

Cloud9 will be a lot harder.

I can't blame him for being poked out and not being able to farm well, but 3 farm at 6 min is just bad.

I don't get how anyone can die 6 times in 6 min in Gold/Silver...

Me either. I feel like if you're joining ranked queue, you are confident in your abilities on whatever champion you decide to play.

Which is why it absolutely boggles my mind when people go 0/6 at nearly 7 minutes or die 10 times in 15-20 minutes. Like who the hell were you playing against before that made you THAT confident, and now you're feeding double digit kills so damn early?

You have saved me from so much frustration. Every time I'm about to play ranked, I read this thread during queue and back out because I get terrified of your experiences and play ARAM.

It's making me enjoy the game much more

I think dcrews is an anomaly. I play about 90% ranked games and I only occasionally have bad player experiences. I've had more bad experiences in the rotating game modes than ranked.

I have had more experiences of players flaming and basically quitting at 15-20 min than feeding and giving our team no chance to win.

It amazes me how 2-3 kills will tilt and destroy a team. You get an elitist who thinks he's challenger and the team doesn't do who he wants? Good luck winning..

I've had a few games where I just get beat early game with a couple mistakes and another player, usually top for some reason, starts flaming me and saying it's GG at 10 min. I just don't get it.

The game is incredibly fun when you get a good match and both teams are good sports, but it's incredibly maddening when your team is cancer.

I certainly hope so. Every game I've played since last week has been jaw droppingly awful.

Just had my first game today where my 1/6 top lane blames me for not snoballing other lanes while I'm being 5 man dove bot. I just laugh at this point. He proceeds to run up mid and intentionally feed, then sits in base flaming everyone.

I need to start screenshotting this shite so people don't think I'm crazy.
