Whats with the abnormally high amount of feeders lately? In the past week or so, every game I'm in there are like two people who go 0-11, EVERY time.

they changed the matchmaking system:

well, might as well throw my hat into the ring (though I'm more focused on building up IP than rank)

Yeah, seems changing that ed everything. Takes like 5 minutes to get into a game that's just filled with baddies/feeders. The worst part is I'm at like 2000 games played, so these people should be around the same amount of games played, yet they all play like it's their first time.

I've had nothing but people that either leave, troll, or just uber inexperienced players in my ranked games so far. But I'm actually looking for team players and people that are willing to play at least 3-4 times a week as a team. I want to play in a team that can work together and try to help each other improve over time. A lot of people don't realize that this is a TEAM GAME and people need to WORK TOGETHER and not against each other. But yeah, if anyone's interested feel free to hit me up. Thanks!

That sucks man...I was down to 990s at the end of season 2 but I raised it to 1200 before season ended....Since then I've been climbing...almost at 1500. It's horrible when you go on a losing streak. If I lose more than 50 elo in day, I just get frustrated and kinda give up. Good luck on your elo!

So, after purposely tanking my ELO for the lulz in Season 2, I've now gotten myself to the top ranked Bronze player in Division 1. Bronze aint shit, but I'm still rather happy considering I tanked myself down to 700 ELO and climbed out of the gutter.

I'm surprised the Mod's never sticked this thread, since it has more posts than some of the threads that already are sticked.

So yeah, this new Ranked system....worse than before. So much easier for people to ruin a game experience. Just lost 3 in a row and lost all 74 points from the 5 games I won previously. All it took was one person that just went AFK right after the game loaded, and 2 others that refused to play a support and just trolled bot with the ADC.

What a wonderful community. Just wonderful.

Are you in Division 1 of your particular league? There is/was apparently some issue where a loss was wiping out like 2-3 wins worth of points for people in Division 1.

Honestly, the new system seems a bit better as far as queues go. I've played three ranked games since the new system was put in place and everyone has been pretty good at communicating and not acting like a 5 year old over what lane they want to go.

Nope, division 3. Now at 0 points. Yay.

Cait dies 2 times before leveling to 2.

It was Nunu's fault (me, support). lol. then I had to deal with the fun of having a adc 3 levels behind everyone

So, three ranked wins worth of points pissed away because I lost one game. Seems pretty ing stupid.

If the trolls are still there, it doesn't matter what system you implement. Riot needs to get to the root of the problem and get rid of the trolls.

I would say 99% of the ranked games I've been in NO ONE wanted to play support, 75% of the games a teammate just goes AFK for no apparent reason, and 50% of the time someone that has no grasp of the game is on my team.

Yup, ranked games are still a joke.

ya there has ben alot of feeders lately but LoL is still the best game ive played so far i usaly play tanks (Skarner, Nasus, or Amumu) but every now and agian i play AD champs i didnt play for over a year cuz i lost my internet but im still getting back to the game so im a little rusty if anyone would like to add me my gamers tagg is the mint oreo

the strange thing is that your MMR/ELO is disjointed from these league points so it really makes no sense.

i really don't understand the new ranking system anyway.


i've played support and jungle so much that my last hitting sucks now. i find it odd when my last hitting is better in dota than in league.

i cant jungle if my life depended on it ive tryed and failed

I've found that the best times to play (on the NA servers) is after dinner time around 8:00PM to 2:00AM(PST). During this time it seems that the more competent players are on and there are much less trolls.

Man, I've been playing so much support that the one time I played mid(I mostly fill so this one time no one wanted Mid) I went straight to bot lane.... haha. Oh well, ended up with 22/0/5 on my Akali. <3

Akali seems so stupid OP right now. Just played a game where our Akali fed a Darius top pretty bad because she was doing stupid things but she still ended something like 15/7. Guess it doesn't take much to wreck face with her.

it's not just you. my preferred role is actually support, and I'm the same ay. my last hitting skill is average at best.

the worst is those times when you get the pushy people that have to play support and push you out of the role, and they just play a passive sona or ali, not even trying to zone just being a healbot. so then your last hitting looks really bad

I had a random teammate awhile ago that demanded support. I'm usually mid, but got forced into AD so I'm stuck in bottom lane with this guy. I'm trying to last hit and he kept attacking the minions I was attacking which was screwing up my timing for last hitting. Then he got all pissy and was like "If you miss one more CS, I'm going to start taking them all". Bare in mind he's the one screwing me up, and I'm also having to do all the zoning because he's not doing anything.
