Gone up 4 divisions in a week (<30 odd games) and have no real sense of achievement Assuming that this isn't some stealth bragging, 4 divisions in a week does seem like an achievement to me. Heck, you only have to do is repeat the process 5 more times and boom, you're top tier. Of course, it should get harder as you go.
God ranked is so boring, I just win every game. There's just no real sense of achievement when you shit on your opponents every game. When is there supposed to be some kind of challenge?

Pshh. Faker is the most joyful and trolly soloq player.

Tryharding doesn't work in soloq. You just get annoyed at one point and start trolling like everyone else.

That's why we play fun police champions. So we can tryhard while we troll.

Does anyone else feel like matchmaking broke in the past few days? My que times have more than doubled from 2 minutes to 6-9 minutes, and every game I've played has been a 1 sided stomping (some times breaking my ways sometimes against me) with the winning team being up double digit kills before 20 minutes, usually with 1 big feeder.
Is this just me having a run of bad luck or did something change?
|
Probably just bad luck mixed with tilt, so it seems every game is lopsided (or maybe it is). I haven't felt any changes in matchmaking, although this season I just really hate premades. Queue times depend on rank and what roles you play, I have ~5-10 minutes with ADC/mid and 10sec-2 min with ADC/support in D5.

Don't tryhard in soloQ, put effort into the game but don't overexert yourself, or you'll tilt so hard. Unless you're a smurf, there are just too many games you can't carry because team sucks.

im sure nafta needs advice at how to play solo queue
|
Sometimes it feel like queue system just fucks up for some reason. I queue as support/fill and usually have very low waits, however occassionally I get a rediculous ~10m queue. Noticed that sometimes I can leave a super long queue, rejoin one and get a game immediately.

could be that you were about to get matched soon anyway -- as support/fill your position in the queue doesnt really matter since there's nobody else picking those roles
canceling queue as say, jungle/mid would probably be much worse for you

I didn't mean it as advice, more like agreeing. Maybe I should've said 'Yeah, don't bother tryharding'?

I'm so sure that has to do with whether or not you get a premade in the game: the system wants to queue premades with similar ones, so if your queue has one then the wait time jumps quite a bit.

I'll tryhard all I want because I have the emotional strength not to be affected by factors outside my control by players making mistakes that I could be making on a bad day
edit: that said "all I want" usually isn't that much kek

I get 4 minutes as fill average only in diamond 3. Don't remember it being this long before I took a break tbh.
When you add in all the dodges rip.
I don't really tilt from people being bad. Just feels like a waste tryharding when nobody else is. Don't really care if I win or lose that much anyway.

I never notice queue times since I just shitpost on tl or something while im waiting

Yeah, i think sometimes it pre-selects a chunk of players for a game then gets lost trying to find the last player instead of just making good matches from the available pool sometimes.
Happens to me all the time. Probably once every 3 games or so I get an uber queue that if I don't pay attention will take 15 minutes to pop, or I can cancel and restart at like 5 minutes and it insta-pops.
Or it is just totally busted. Not sure, but i hope it is just grouping chunks because otherwise something is hella hella wrong. Its not a huge deal, but i think my queue times for how bad I am are pretty long ass. I guess I do queue Jungle/Mid though, so kinda my fault.

No matter how resolute you are, the other 4 people on your team may not share the same ideals.
When there are 15 kills in 10 minutes, when the top laner is x9'ng your jungler, when the talon has more kills than long swords, I can guarantee you that somebody isn't try harding.
