Turns out ranked is surprisingly easy. I kept thinking everyone was like me, not doing it until they really felt ready. ...that's bullshit. Out of the fifteen or so ranked matches I've done, I have yet to see actually skilled players on either side. (At least none beyond my own current skill level.)
Any idea what causes this? Is it like SC2, where total dipshits think they're 'all that' and decide to OWN IN BRONZE LEAGUE?

Unfortunately as you get higher and higher in rating it can vary from "extremely unforgiving" to "pubstump". At around 1650+, if you are last pick, all the other players are around 50-200 elo higher than you (and vice versa), which makes a huge difference in skill level. Playing mid/top against people who are 100+ higher elo than you really makes you feel terrible ;__: when you (usually) get pwned.
That depends on having a stable ELO, though, which I don't have yet. I guess I just haven't risen to my proper level.
Getting away from the 1500 range is good. Generally you want to stay away from League during the weekends since thats when the idiots get on, as well as not in the morning because thats when the chinese people WHO I MISTAKINGLY THOUGHT THEY HAVE THEIR OWN SERVER BY NOW, cherish us with their terrible decisions, lack of pings, and lack of communication.
Also, getting away from 1500 is key to staying away from people who got carried. Its hard to see someone past around 1550+ who received all their wins because they suck, but their team of 4 made up for it.
Im trapped there for the time being because of that crap.

I've actually not had much problems with Chinese players on the NA server so far, but the Spanish/Portugese speakers are a whole other story. Still debating what's worst out of those and the Eastern Europeans on EU-East.
He's actually not terrible, last I played with him. He's roughly on par with the decent pubs we get, so...much as I hate to admit it I'd rather play with him than a pub.

This morning I Got two unofficial pentakills with Fiora in a single game! My first one was me getting a quadra and taking a little too long to kill Garen with a warmogs , and the second time I got ksed by my friend on what should have been my second kill. I ended up with another quadra and them surrendering soon after. My final score that game was 15/0/4
Ordinarily, roflstomps like this aren't really worth reporting - in this case, though, I'll make an exception to point out that Soraka is still the unmatched support. Maybe this new Lulu person will be some competition.
Oh, and I need to add armor runes to my support page... Soraka's base is 11, and that's... not enough. *shudder*
Yeah I'm not a big fan of Westernhagen either, Fanta vier much better! But they didn't drop the lyrics that fit the situation. Farty: Ich bin wieder hier; nobody: in meinem Revier; Me: war nie wirklich weg
