Can anyone give me actual advice on how to find teammates on lfg's longterm

@soccerking122regarding your question about getting teammates:

I have been playing since season 8 and so far have found just 1 guy to play with on a regular basis = process is not fast I guess 🙂

Additional tips:

• Discord servers - you can google ones more suitable for you, look if our influencers on social media have a server on discord = high chance of finding like-minded people there
• Just grinding publics or ranked and adding in friends list all good players
• Showing initiative - actually reaching out to people, setting up games, talking about playing on a regular basis, as many people are lazy and they either wait to join an already set party or they just scared to talk, manage such stuff

As for the situation in general - well hearing that people solo queue to Diamond 1 I think that this topic is relevant for people like you and me who are not too good at the game. I have reached diamond 4 for the 2nd time yet I could not do it without my mate as playing with randoms usually gives you negative rp at the end of the day (my top swin so far was gaining 400 rp in the first part of the day and then losing 500 later at night) or it is a hell of a grind while playing already with 1 mate we take top 5 pretty much every game and max rp loss games are maybe 1 in 10 which helps a lot.
