Pretty sure being AFK is counter productive if you're looking to have enough farm. Poppy's laning was highly dependent on landing her only cc, and even then it wasn't a sure win. Her ult was almost non existent unless she was ahead enough to use it for tower dives, other use for it was to run away from a gank, or fight through it, again if she's ahead.
There was no way for her to farm without getting punished for it, and whoever actually let her farm was playing the game wrong. It was almost impossible for you to not harass her when she tries to last hit. After that your team would be able to live through her dives in teamfights, or fight her if she ults someone who's not a support.
I haven't played or seen the new poppy yet, but judging from the spotlight, she's definitely more versatile now than she ever was before.

Also notice that jinx game is just salt in the wounds, 15 minute game because premade trolls, intentionally feeding.
Disclaimer, I don't think i should be diamond or challenger, but FFS, this just ruins whole ranked when it comes to LOL. Who wants to try to climb in an enviornment where you simply cannot carry unless you are actually a whole league higher than your team.
You getting those games is just as probably as the enemy team getting them. Having great KDA is far from enough for anyone to judge if you played well enough to win. Not pointing fingers or anything, but I can play an entire match farming my lane and killing anyone who tries to stop me, but leave my team to get all objectives and not give a shit about anything other than my score. Pretty sure that doesn't win me a game.
Many of us here started from deep withing the bowels of bronze, and managed to climb out way (occasionally slowly), to the high ranks.
Lose a game? Check what you could've done to improve your chances to win, not what your team should've done.
