Low cs for 27 minutes [slayer-jinx-wink]

Not only is CS important, you also get compared to other people who play Kai’Sa.

Sure, they may not have the same enough of kills as you, but they’ll have 250-270 CS at that time of the game.

CS is super important when it comes to S’s!

Cheers!

Kills don't matter that much for S. If you had 300 CS,most damage, most damage to towers and objectives, a good vision score even if you had 15 kills less you would have had an S. You need to remember you are compared to other Kai'sa players (in normal blind not across all queues) across the stat's board. If you compare them all 1 by 1 how many of your stats you think is within the 95%+ best performing players?

OH lol its a 48/9 game that lasted 28 mins. It's hard to get S on troll games, especially if the enemy is feeding, how come you didn't show the rest of the screen?

Also, I think if you play ranked you get S more easily because you are compared to people of your ELO. In normals you are compared to all normals which can be unfavourable

I literally had to go 5/0/15 as a Morgana support to get an S(not even an S+). Never die, get lots of kills and assists and ward to hell and back.

Also stole lots of CS when I noticed my score might be S worthy and ditching whenever a teamfight got rough to preserve that precious KDA. One death woulda probably busted me down to A+ (still won, just ran the fck away whenever Rumble got close).

And for all that effort I got an emote I'll never use >.>

They are purposefully tight-lipped on exactly what gets graded and by how much, to prevent people from 'gaming the system'.

They have stated a few things though: ^You are compared against other players with same Champ/same Role (presumably similar rank as well?) ^'Do what you are supposed to be doing' (kills, cs, vision, etc...) ^For Supports, Assists are worth the same as Kills (to hopefully reduce Kill Stealing, but it also implies that Assists are worth less than Kills for the other roles)

Since you only posted the scoreboard (and we don't have global up-to-date Kai'Sa/ADC stats), then all we can really say is "CS looks low".
