Platinum 4 is forever rank...

Getting from bronze to diamond palying solo only I am very confident to say that plat 4 lobbies are the hardest to play. The second i made it out to pl3-2 lobbies were so easy it felt like I was playing vs gold players. So your argument about not being good enough is ridiculous. why should i have the skill of a diamond to make it out of plat 4, but can easily play plat 2 even if I play like a gold player?

Diamond IV is harder to escape from, and yet nobody complains about that much.  Dive trail, I suppose.

I just got to Plat III and my observation is, once again, it is best done solo.  And I mean SOLO, like run away from your team mates.  Maybe like 3% of my pug team mates have been worth it.  Otherwise, the worst thing they can do is live long enough to find me, and then get me killed with them somewhere before placing 5th or higher.  So much I would have been Plat II like 20 games ago if I didn't have that nonsense happening.
