Low ELO is full of clowns.

[Versace]

Hi,

I play alone most of the time. And cuz of that I have to start from low elo like Silver or Gold. Till 2 days ago, I was Gold 1. I grinded with a team to G1. But after that I had to play alone all the time. Now I'm G3. Guess why. If you are playing without friends, there's always an AFK or troll in team. Like all the time. Today I played like 10 ranked games, 8 of them was full of trolls. There's another thing that, matchmaking always teams up same-class players like 2 support mains or smh but that's another case...
Paladins' low elo is literally unplayable. Like every exact match, I'm having trolls or AFKs. And this makes impossible to rank up. I have like 900hrs or smh on this game. But I'm really done with this situation. Like... It never ends. Today I had 8 team like this. 8. That's being really unbearable. And the biggest problem is you can change the game but you can't change the community. I don't know where it's going on but I'm gonna leave this soon.

Bad players end up there so what exactly do you expect? Low elo players are not all "bad" people though. There's a lot of new players, people who are intelligent but not mechanically skilled, people who got placed low because of trolls, etc. But, the trolls are going to be in low elo so you have to be ready for that in any game you play. Not just paladins.

I'm sure noone having trolls in every match. In Paladins, you can experience this.

I don't get trolls in every match, or even half of them. Maybe you're doing things to aggravate your teammates?

You're just not having good luck which happens to everyone, and is aggravated by the fact you are solo-queuing. Unlike you, I'm actually IN matchmaking hell which is Bronze and Silver and solo queued through 201 matches. You will find that you will have good days and bad days if you continue to solo queue ranked. If you don't want to solo-queue, I suggest looking for players to play Ranked with, or else continue to solo-queue and expect to make a lot of Lemonade.

As for the matchmaking system, the matchmaking system isn't matching players based on what roles they play a lot, they are matching them based on their MMR and role preference has nothing to do with anything. Again, if you don't want to deal with multiple one-trick support players on your team or simply players only wanting to play a specific role for that match, find other players to group up with for Ranked.

im climbing my ass alone in solo que from silver 1 to platinum 1, theres a bad game and sometimes a good game, try to communicate with your team and try not to be an ass if they made a mistake, always work for me

the only sad thing for me is i cant reach diamond 5 at the end of the season

[Cuddly rat]

Just take a carry champ lol. I play damage/flank when I'm below plat and pick mostly Frontline or support above plat.

[Versace]

Yeah guys, solo queue is really hard and cancerous, but most of the time I have no choice :D This must be the curse of game... So show must go on...

My favorite part is when the dragoz stays in the back spamming rockets or the lex runs up ahead of everyone to 1v4 or when you call out the sniper for ignoring the cap when both teams are wiped out and he gets so mad he calls a vote to mute you and it goes through

Every Elo is full of clowns and ranking up doesn't stop you from getting low elo players. I play in High Diamond/Master games and I regularly get paired with silvers and golds.

The games busted, devs don't care they're just milking skins and crystals at this point.

nothing new here. The game is so "alive" said by the fanatics

Never play ranked solo. Always have a friend of a group of friends you can rely on. Add good players. Improve game sense and positioning. Understand the process of drafting and counter-picking. Have a good rapport with other players, so they will never sabotage your match. Always be good at at least 2-3 champs per class.
