Gameplay Boards Experiment- Assassin Carry Loss Log

Meep Man·Nov 9, 2016·1 votes·433 views

Ok, so here is the experiment. Every time you lose a game against a team with an Assassin on their team who has the first or second most kills AND has a positive KDA, post the Assassin champion here in a post saying their name and that you lost (and maybe even how you lost). If you believe the Assassin "carried" in some other way (through an objective steal or what not) you can also post it here. At the end of every day (excluding Day 1 to provide at least one full day of logs), I will count up and keep track of how many times each Assassins was logged here.

The goal here is to create a list of which champion seems to be making the biggest splash and see how this changes over the patch, compares with their win rate (once data is available), and see any patterns. Finally, this experiment might also see if the Boards themselves are a good source for the balance of the game.

this is horribly organized. not to mention over half of the player base does not visit boards, and this post will end up being buried. :|

I have help and know the second fact. Read the goals in the OP. Also, it won't get buried if people participate. If they don't then that is fine. It just shows the experiment was impossible in the first place. No harm in trying though.

You mean, read the edit that was written as I was writing my comment. The goals were clear and the purpose of this "collection" was obvious.

Having help is irrelevant; the post is still horribly organized, the idea is all over the place, you've no way to clearly keep tally/keep track of any of these numbers, at least no clear way was outlined. You're hopeful, however, this is not going to work.

Boards has such a high influx of posts/minute that this post will be buried under several tens of posts by the time anyone gets out of school today, gets off work, is free to play a game.

It's only those like you who believe such an experiment is impossible that actually make it potentially impossible. Upvotes and a steady stream of posts can keep a thread afloat.

-13 minutes, only comments are OP and one other.

you're going to get nowhere with this, let Riot handle the statistic matters.

What are you trying to prove anyway? What are YOUR goals here?

Wasn't trying to prove anything, am just attempting to show you that this "experiment" is a moot point and will fall flat on it's face. you're wasting your time.

cheers.

Ah, well, thank you for being the stereotypical anti-hero of every success story ever. See you somewhere else then, old sport.
