Concern for Rank S+, S, and S-
Now, it may just be my perception considering I am only Silver V. However this ranking system is quite selfish behavior inducing.
I've gotten 22 S-/S/S+'s in total in this last AR-URF mode and along with quite a few before and some this lately but most of the time it has left me thinking about just what this grading system is teaching me as a player.
It has led me to some of these points:
- Get every kill that comes your way, no matter the dignity of how.
- Avoid death, the amounts of which are purely based on the amount of how many your team has gotten VSing how many your enemy has gotten, VSing yet more towards how the death was given to you. ( IE if it was a simple/obvious mistake you'd be nerfed per-say down a - or +, But if it was a death because the enemies were well Coordinated and/or Ahead by another's life; You are less penalized for dying. )
Now by Point 2. and for the fact I am in Silver V and before I was obviously in Bronze this made me look out to be very selfish to my team members when I knew it was a bad decision. (Sometimes I don't ping them... I am wrong for not doing it, which I intend to continue improving so they in hopes die less)
-
You need to receive most times many assists too; though you also need the kills. This in a sense is a good decision BUT, it neglects Supports in some areas. ( IE Soraka going 4/8/41; You see she did her job, and even martyred so her team lives on. Yet because of those demises and the low amount of Kills she is no longer Eligible for an S, S+, or S-... She may receive an A to B+ )
-
Warding and Scuttle matter very little so long as the score is being well maintained.
-
Toxicity does not affect the grade at all, nor does Win or Lose (Too much) Now this is unfair because it shows players that even if they are toxic, take all the kills, maintain their score, ward nothing, and rage at their allies, that they can still achieve an S-, S, S+ and therefore they (in some cases) justify this behavior. Instead of learning how to better themselves and better the way they work together with the team. ( Maybe I'm just hoping for a future where the only thing that teams lack is enough Practice and Skill XD )
Now to save this thread from being anything other than the fact that I am criticizing how selfish behavior inducing it is to maintain getting S's , I will stop there.
Tell me how you believe things are, and feel free to say anything. <3 I love you all and hope your week is beautiful. Thanks for reading!! [slayer-jinx-wink]
