Getting champs to lvl 7

Lyles··2 votes·977 views

Im just not so happy about the ranking system of how you get S-S+. It makes 0 sense to me how i can got 15-5-10 with 222 cs and get the win and still not get that S+ i need to get my dang champ to lvl 7. This is very frustrating and if someone could clear up why the hell i didnt get an s (oh btw it only gave me an A+) that would be great if a riot employee could explain this stupid system to me.[slayer-jinx-unamused]

well you can't really blame anyone for the ranks you get because the system is based on you relative to other players, so there is no sure-fire way to get an S or S+ because it depends on how others perform. Let's say in a hypothetical world there is a champion that is so broken that good players consistently go 20-0 on them. If you go 15-0 one game you will be like "wow I played so well I deserve an s", but the system says "that game does not meet the threshold for the highest performance standards on this champion" and thus you will not be given an S despite having a very good score.

Getting an S means you have a score that is in the top ~1.5% (I think I read it was this number but I could be wrong) of all games on that champion, so this is why it is not consistent across the board. Going 15-5-10 on Yasuo (hypothetically, not sure what champ you used) in this current patch where he is super strong and where the top performers are performing super well, is not the same as going 15-5-10 on Galio jungle or something like that.

very much depends on the champ and the role, if you were mid/top/adc you probably needed more minions, as top/adc I normally only get s or S+ if i go over 300 minions.

Also if you are playing an assassin it is common to have a large number of kills so that doesn't mean as much towards getting an s or s+

  1. 222 CS in a 40+ minute game is not good enough. Should be closer to 300+ CS

  2. Place more pink wards.

  3. Participate in more dragon/baron/rift/inhibitor/turret kills. Even one hit will count as participation.

  4. You might have lower damage compared to other Cho'gath mid players due to your mostly tank build.
