League of Legends - Sylas? New Season? You bet.

you know people are at rock bottom when they expect legendary plays out of a silver border
no offense, i have a silver border too

silver borders are actually different for me in ranked vs in norms. In ranked silv borders are actually pretty spooky considering my mmr is around gold 1-plat 5 due to win streaks and if someone has a silver border, it means they're trying really hard to win. In norms a silver border is different since my normal mmr is low. I agree with you though. You can't expect silver border to make big plays since mostly they don't.

yeah then that's really weird. The kass didn't seem bad, but I'd wonder how he was matched in that game.

I ban riven, they pick pantheon. I ban pantheon, they pick teemo. I ban teemo, they pick riven.

why does it take so long to level up like summoner wise not character

why does it take so long to level up like summoner wise not character

it's honestly an unnecessary process in which they force new people to learn nothing relevant for 29 levels of their life other than basic controls.
game is balanced around full runes and masteries, but yet they force players to play without them.

now, outright removing levels isn't necessary. giving meaningful rewards as they level up would help the game out more, and they already sort of do this anyway. at level 4 you get RP and at various levels you unlock new modes. just need to figure out what to do with runes. tier 1 and 2 runes shouldn't exist. maybe make the runes super cheap, but as the player buys more of the same kind, the price increases for that rune. anything other than "hey are you enjoying the game? i hope you're ready to forget everything as you go along. going top with your buddy? nice, why is this guy who just said 'jungle' in chat complaining though? woah how is that guy doing that thunder thing on me, i played that champ and i couldn't do that! wow this jungle thing is super hard how do people even do this. nice i'm level 30. *300 matches later* haha wow i was such a scrub before 30!"

IMO they should double the xp gains to cut the time in half. There should still be a bit of a grind to discourage smurfs from ruining lower elo but not too much of one.

they already cut the xp requirement by half - you saying they should do it again?

Cutting the time in half would ruin lower elo more than mine would.
You would still need to be level 30 to play ranked, as I explained, levels shouldn't be completely removed. Just need to separate account level from directly impacting gameplay. Other rewards could be given instead, maybe some sick early IP gains for the t3 runes they're gonna need.

when was this?

Edit: it was patch 6.5, this is great news since I put off leveling my smurf since it was so tedious.

when was this?

last month

last month

I'm going to power level my smurf now since it's like level 16. Since my main is already gold I could use this smurf to practice with other forumers or duoq :^)

blind pick mm is really bad to play at times
i end up playing with or against level 30 players with like 700-1200 wins while the rest of the players are < 30
then more than a few these players get really really salty when their teammates dont do well and it just ruins the overall experience

...i mean, its blind pick, what do you expect? trashing on players new (relative to you) to the game is pointless - why not tell them what they could do better/why they did badly rather than saying the obvious "you suck" and being all salty n stuff


...that said does blind pick/normals affect mm?

Conan, add me let's play xD.
