Is this game luck based?

I played by myself and got 2 trolls that threw their utility at me purposely the whole game all because I was a girl. I feel like I get teammates that are so lost and I just can’t rank up with them. I’ve been in the same division for 50 games because of this. Is it my fault? No matter how much I try to help my team or com, it’s just win loss win loss and a gamble if my team will be good or not

I’ve also seen people 5+ divisions higher than me who are a lot worse than me. I just don’t understand how they could rank up but I can’t

Just get a few people and start 3 or 5 stacking

Five stacking significantly makes winning more games more consistent as you’re not banking of random factors such as people with no mics, or players who may not be willing to be flexible in their agent picks. You can start by going here #looking-for-group

i thought this would make it harder especially if you queue against people who have good chemistry

Typically most five stacks are random players however the biggest advantage to this is the rank discrepancy in the games. You could have someone who is diamond 3 and bronze 2 on the same team

so (genuine question) how would this increase my chances of winning? if i am gold and able to queue against ascendant and diamond players, isn’t that lowering my chances of winning?

Its an example that five stack queuing is done slightly differently than running solo/duo/trio. You could have a team that is all golds or you could have one that has a significantly higher (or lower) rated player. While five stacking isnt an automatic win more games, it allows you some control over things that typically are out of your control. That can be referenced in my earlier post.
