I didn't get the flow of the game. I started playing Ranked at about 1000-1200 wins in normal. Before that, it was relatively random how you win the game. I think I tried to play Evelynn there (when she was super nerfed) and i was not well received.

It took me a while but i caught on good. But by then, it was too late, as I was already sub 1100. Now, I am spiraling down the Elo slope with nothing to grab onto on the way down.

As much as I wish I could get out and back to 1200, I cannot. It is completely random the way match making matches you up with people.

I can attest this because sometimes, my team will be pitted against a team who just has some unbearably bad player on their team. Elo Hell is Real.
