"oh boy I called adc and finally got my role! Since this is my most familiar position I'm gonna sit 20 feet behind my minion wave and still somehow manage to feed 10 kills before laning phase ends!"

Read the OP, thought this was a nonsense thread.

Read replies, realising this is actually something serious.

Am now very confused still.
riot employees claim to be constantly immersed in science but their algorithms for determining where you're seeded after 10 placement games is so terrible that it can place professionals into a tier lower than I'm in or a new player into Gold (halfway through the entire ladder)

The system is :shifty: :shifty: :shifty: :shifty:

This is not making anything clearer to me at all...you could be talking in a different language for all I know...

In the new season they pull everyone's rank back and let them play 10 placement matches to change their rank in the system. After the 10th game their ranking is revealed. Riot's algorithm for determining ranks are putting professionals in gold despite how many games they might win

nightblue is better than you

therefore you are less than pathetic
nightblue is pathetic in a relative way. therefore I cant be considered that because its not a scale of the entire ranked playerbase, but a relative scale of masters/challenger tiers that im stating
edit: actually, relative to plat, I am also pathetic but not related to nightblue
I'm done explaining myself by the way, I'm not rising to the bait :^)

raxo2222 nice bandwagon considering I expanded on that post further and gmk didn't rate my second one confusing but you still went back and rated the first confusing
