I sat at 1700+ for about 6 months and then went on a losing streak because of said troll players. The result was I dropped down to 1200 elo and guess what? I went from 1200 to 1800 and then dropped from 1800 to 1300 and then went from 1300 up to 1900. It normally took me about 40 or more game to go from dropping hard to exceeding my last highest elo.

So trolls have nothing to do with it.
