When I've had games of the type that others post, I've never felt it was due to player skill differences that the game was won or lost; each team seems to get new players and feeders, and it averages out. Matchups just seem to be a huge deal, and I think that definitely creates some of those hugely imbalanced stat boards.

I know that's part of it, but it wasn't just me in that game. We had over 20 kills less than 10 minutes in to the game.

I had a 16-8 ratio when I made the account, then the last reset happened and I went 2-10 afterwards. Yes, the ratio balanced out, but seriously, nearly 10 losses in a row? It would be fine if they were all challenging games, but it was just the system throwing me in with clueless people to take a beating. I even left one game because I couldn't take how my lane partner refused to help me against 2 competent people, just stealthed waited until I was dead, then attacked and would get killed himself. (i hadn't left in maybe about 200 games prior to this).

Being in the top ELO bracket the last few days has almost made me not want to play. Ill start working on screenshots but lately Ive been getting 10+ minute SOLO or commonly duo queues (rarely queue with more than Somnium) only to play a full premade and get stomped in 15 minutes.

Playing barely longer than it takes to queue isnt fun =/

It feels like back when I started playing, the game was always up in the air for at least the first 30 minutes. These days, it's pretty clear who's going to win within the first 5-10 minutes. I guess that's my main complaint.

I didn't take a picture of the score but I was just in a pub game against a 5 man obviously premade as they all had terrorist names. How did this happen? It was really ridiculous.
