But I am a higher ELO than you...

Baunjo··4 votes·546 views

People LOVE to use ELO to judge others and make themselves feel better. While that clearly cannot change, if you would like to give someone advice, NEVER mention their ELO or your ELO for why you should be right. EVER. That is not a reason, or factual evidence of your claim, you are being toxic and belittling players and that needs to change.

Would you trust doctors who graduated from a prestigious medical university, or doctors who says they attended "School of Hard Knocks" majoring in "Bangin shit"?

That's why I always tell silvers to not listen to other silvers. If you listen to other silvers, you'll think like a silver, so why do you deserve gold if you think like a silver? Instead think like a diamond.

Except from what I hear and see silver is a lot different than diamond. Although I have always tried to think like a diamond, I feel to get Gold its better to try and play like a gold or plat player. One, the skill differences isn't as much and two the play style is a little more similar. I mean I agree I would think always try and play your role/character like a higher elo, but a silver trying to play exactly like a diamond is not going to happen. That and diamonds can really rely on their teammates to respond to ganks/obejctives, etc. while silver you really have no idea how people are going to react. Some games people are great with map awareness and team fighting and its super fun, everyone is on the same page. The next game you will wonder if your team has ever played a ranked game in their life.

This is not a life threatening surgery or some shit it is a video game. That referance is stupid. If you cannot explain a concept to someone they are either 1) never going to get it ( or atleast not until it bites them in the ass for a while ) or 2) you did not do a good job of explaining. Being an elitist little bitch will not help them understand whatsoever.

so it's called citing sources. i observe that the patch is bad, i ask other mid to high elo (plat and diamond) players what they think, they agree. how can i be a sheep when I'm one of the ppl that rito balances for lol ? your game follows my elo, my elo doesn't follow yours.

Tiny sample size, horrible idea. You just admitted to being a sheep for a very small circle. Holy fuck, don't ever try politics. You'd end up in the green party. I never mentioned Elo, but it's been proven that Rito doesnt balance for any elo but the pro scene.

nah. Riot said before that balance is for plat+. I'm plat+. how am I a sheep? Literally every one of your games in s5 is copying a pro build and failing miserably by losing against silvers.

No they haven't. They said that balance is for all levels of play.

"Similarly a champion that's balanced for high tier ranked (which is what we most often focus balance on) may be noticeably stronger at less experienced levels of play (e.g. Garen or Amumu) or too weak (e.g. Azir or Le Blanc)."

Wait a minute.

Elo and love are spelled with the same letters minus the v. The word "volleyball" has a v in it. Volleyball is played on the beach. The beach has sand. Egypt also has sand. Egypt also has the pyramids. loominaty cnfrmd
