No more games today

First game:
Estes afk, we almost won but couldnt defend properly all lanes.
Second game:
Again, mm afk from the beginning, no chance there.
Third game:
I was paired with a very low skill duo or trio, enemies super strong. Lost before we could even surrender.
Forth game:
Inonesian or Thailand language. No idea what they were saying, texting a lot. Lost terribly.
I still had some time off so I went for the fifth game:
One afk from the beginning, another afk mid game.

I played these 5 games solo, no friends online, 3 friends already playing. I mean this is horrible... the worst part is checking all the profiles and see them with 90 credit score or more. I have some free time tonight but I wont play. I dont care about my win rate, it keeps going down. Its just impossible to play today I guess. And i dont feel like playing tomorrow either. I ll wait dor saturday night when all friends are online i guess.  But i wish i could play solo, i mean no friends no win? Really?
Matchmaking socks so bad, why putting a low skill grandmaster trio against mythics with high win rates?
I dont know whats harder, rank or classic.
Fock this matchmaking and punishments system.

I doubt what gemik said is true honestly. Solo Q players do deserve respect, it's an impossible job  ...

why should those who play solo and seriously have to stop? why don't players who troll and low skills are forced to stop by being banned?

I would say never give up because I had lost more than this. I think I had 10+ losing streaks few months ago. After that I played brawl mostly and played rank rarely and then had winning streak in rank and my win rate was back to 51+ from 46+.

There was an old theory in this forum that playing rank in losing streak will match us with afk players or others with losing streak. That theory suggested to play classic after losing a couple of rank matches so the matchmaking will match us with good players again.

I wish you get better teammates and have fun in the game

i had a bitter taste of soloq, personally got lots of respect for soloq players. i got mythic II in just a few days after the new season by playing trios but when i went solo everything went much harder and slower

Honestly gemik said something interesting. Solo players with 50 wr at least will generally have 70 wr in duo and trios.

I doubt what gemik said is true honestly. Solo Q players do deserve respect, it's an impossible job to go solo, not break your phone and win. I don't know if you all noticed but most mature people playing ranked do it somewhere around evening-night time. By mature I mean in how they think and act, not the age in the ID. I am a solo player myself most of the times and that's my time when I play. I mean sure, i get afks too, don't think i dont..especially since i'm a veeerrryyy 'lucky' person but...trust me on this if you lose around 3 matches, stop. take a couple of hours break, watch a movie or something, chill..then come back on game with fresh rested mind and eyes...and be zen. Works pretty often

it shows that the game is failing to provide safety and comfort for solo player

I completely understand how you feel as a solo player that never plays with friends.

I’ve matched up with players that went AFK or didn’t have good skills and didn’t know how to play and treated the game like practicing.

I mean it’s annoying, but it is what it is. The game should impose harsher punishments, but it’s not like we can prevent AFKs from happening. Many players have different issues like they suddenly had to leave or internet issue.
