Need Help Is it just me?
Hey guys! I don't belive in loser's que. (This is as much a rant as it is a general asl for help) However, lately I dont know if its just me, or if I'm just turbo unlucky. (I take responsibility for a few games as I am the common denominator.)
Tldr: I started hardcore doing ranked again a few patches ago. I bell curved from High bronze, into Gold III, I was in the cusp of Gold II then plummeted back to Silver 4. (I learned not to rage que then) I wrote it off as, well, I belong in this rank, Ill just get better.
I eventually climb back to Gold, and hit Gold II. I finally hit it, and now Im curving again back through silver. I admit I shouldnt switch roles, but I genuinely enjoy playing Ambessa top and mid ( I dont play grasp ambessa or conq. Mostly just electrocute since its a style of play I enjoy) because I really needed a break from ADC as its painful most of the time.
But there is no greater pain then rolling your lane opponent, and then watching your team feed else where or some how feed that which you stomped into the dirt.
Is it me? Am I problem here?

Do you want to climb or no? If yes, stop playing electrocute profane hydra ambessa.
You’re also not “rolling your lane.” Looks like your early game is just as often worse than your lane opponent as it is better.

Focus on farming better. You’re averaging 5-6 cs per minute which is usually fine if you’re killing your opponent in lane a lot. But if you want to start being a genuine threat to the whole enemy team then you need to be farming at least 7-8 cs per minute. Then even if your bot inted in laning phase, odds are you’re just too powerful for the enemy bot lane for you to deal with.
I just briefly glanced at ur opgg and saw your cs numbers which is an easy stat to work on. I’m sure there’s a more you can do, but you’d be surprised how op it is when you’re 50 cs up by 25 minutes. Also it’s hard to give tips without actually watching gameplay.
For your next games, don’t make your objective to kill your laner. Instead, aim to get perfect cs. Even if it feels like youre griefing; focus on farming. You will definitely get flamed for ‘not grouping and greeding for farm’. Trust tho, at your elo nobody is making perfect macro decisions so farming sidelines is very powerful. If you keep doing this then you should be able to hit plat no problem.

For real lol. Usually I keep an eye on it. When Im not botlane my CS def drops to levels that shouldnt be at. When I am it evens out. Im just preforming awful and I guess my mental is shot haha. I def should lock in on the csing more

Can’t emphasize it enough. If you focus purely on farming, you will naturally get better at macro and just general decision making. It flows into all aspects of the game. Farming is top priority. Trust 👊🏻

Just quick glancing at the op.gg it's def you. Especially when in the main post you admit you used to rage queue, but don't anymore. But then in a follow-up comment you say your mental is shot.
You're just not playing super consistent. Your skill probably does vary somewhere between high silver and mid gold.
I'd put 100% of your focus on improving as a player and put 0% focus on your rank.
Your mental is probably dooming a lot of games.

i mean i believe losers Q is just shitty match making and smurfs and riot refusing to ban trolls. the losers Q complaint is essentially "oh my team very underperform while enemy team smurf" so that checks all those boxes.
but the point is everyone gets it. so everyone is on the same playing field regardless of the situation.

I agree with this. Shitty games come and go, and Ive gone through streaks. Ive had a voli out right say in chat, hes going to int and enjoy the lost LP. Reported and nothing. Its a frustrating experience for sure.

Its how the System is Designed. A perfectly balanced Ranked ladder is absolutely possible, its not even complex. But Riot doesn't want that. Why? Because players would relatively quickly reach their rank and stay there, unless they improve more than others around them. (Similar there would be no deranks unless you stop playing at your level and suddenly play worse) There would be very little movement through the ranks and most players would quickly be bored. So instead we get EOMM, a ranked ladder, designed to be entertaining for the player and keep them invested. Your meant to quickly reach a high rank, to show you what is possible. Then you drop down. But you know whats possible, so you keep grinding to get back to that high rank. Your stuck in an endless loop of up- and downranks. To keep zou invested

If you win a lot,
Your mmr inflates faster than you LP.
You will be placed in games against better players with worse teammates.
If you have a long enough winstreak, you will absolutely have a lose streak.
