I've been solo queueing this whole act and trying my best to climb. Warming up heavy and playing many games a day with the mindset of climbing, but in that drive I realized that I have been unable to climb on my skill alone, and more due to getting placed in a strong team or versus a weak team. Although I do my best to believe every game is winnable and I always instantly vote no on eventual ff prompts, don't get tilted myself (and when I do, I stop playing), try to untilt my team mates, try my best to find holes in our team coordination and my own personal playstyle and correct for those as best I can, I still keep going back to this saying that "20% of games are unwinnable, 20% are unlosable and 60% depend on you", and queueing up every time hoping to get either an unlosable game or at least one easy enough that I can win. Let's face it, we've all been in games where if the enemy team peeked you, you die, and if you peeked the enemy team, you still die. It feels like the enemy team just so much as looks at your team and your team just disintegrates, and we all queue up hoping it's not gonna be another of those matches.
I don't think this is very healthy and it feels like a gambling addiction, every queue another pull of the slot machine hoping it lands on a lucky matchmaking RNG. Does anyone else feel this way?
