In the mind set of a long time player

Hello every one.

Let's see how do i start this. Well first let me say I am not here to complain. I am here to share my thoughts, and my views. I am not looking for some one to agree, or to disagree.

So Here it goes...

First off. I have been playing League for a while now. I think I started on season 2 or 3. Around the time teemo's shrooms were strong, and lasting very long. Anyways. I have played over 10,000 rank games, and well over 1,000 normal games. I like playing rank the most because I always wanted to get one of those cool borderlines. How ever...Over time League has changed so much. Many changes I love, and many I didn't like. How ever when changes happen to games the players change too. Right now rank is not as fun as it use to be. Not because of champ nerfs, or Hud changes. Its because of players. There are so many Trolls,Afks, players that find it fun to make other players upset, or lose cause it makes them feel better or some thing. I can go on, but I know many of you reading this already know the rest.

Now am I saying I want to take a break, or stop playing? No. I don't plain to give up. I never will. I don't care if I get to silver,gold, or what ever place. I just want to go as far as I can.

Now can Riot make some changes to help make less troll/afks, and more? Yes they can. One of the first things I can see Riot adding into the game some day is Rules. Like first rule for rank. you have to play a number of games before you can play a rank game. Why would I want that rule? Well first off how many times did you want to scream at the computer because some one in your match up just entered rank, and went for the new champ that they have never played before? I am sure you screamed a lot. That's one of the reasons why I would like having that first rule in there. Another reason off the top of my head is you are less likely to end up being matched up with players that are way higher rank then you in a match.

First let me say I am 100% for players wanting to rank with friends. Having that rule would not stop you from playing with friends. What I mean by less likely to be matched up with players higher then you is that as it stands right now. All one has to do is make another account and as soon as they are 30, and have enough champs they can dive right into a rank game. Its pretty easy, and it does not take long at all. So higher up players can get into low rank games very fast witch sucks for players that are still on the learning part. Witch means the match that has a Platinum,Diamond, or Challenger smurf in it is not going to be 100% fair match up. and each team will not be at the same skill level to make the learning phase good for climbing.

Now if you add the the rule that you have to play a longer number of games before you can go into a rank. It would make higher players less likely to spend the effort into making so many accounts. And you would have less worry about not being in a fair match up. Now this would just be one of the rules for rank in league of Legends that would help weed out those trolls/afker.

Still asking how I would see that working? Well think about it. If your one of those players who just love making other's match unfun, and you get a rise out of it. Would you still make more accounts that now take forever to make just to give players hell? If I was one of those trolls I wouldn't waste the time making more accounts after each one gets banned.

Anyways. I will never stop playing this game, and I won't give up on trying to get one of those cool borders, And I won't ever give up just because of players giving me a hard time. I will always keep fight.
