Turn Normal Draft into ranked

GigglesO·Dec 1, 2016·2 votes·446 views

Give everyone a hidden rank, and then at the end of season just give them a reward or don't based off of where they climbed to.

Normal draft renamed ------> Draft

While we are at it remove flex -----------> flex is now Draft.

We eliminate 1 queue, which adds players into the remaining queues, Challenger and diamond ect... can now queue for "ranked" with their bronze friends. The best part is people can't shit post about their rank, because noone actually knows their rank until rewards come out.

I think we might have a winner.

i have no fucking clue what I read, but I'm downvoting.

What if I said I was serious?

We actually have too many summoners rift queues, and too many supports only play normal draft.

Quality shit-post gets better.

Oh come on, we all know there are too many SR queues, and that is why they had to use autofill which is why we are one step closer back to the original ranked method.

Auto Fill doesn't exist because there are too many SR Queue, it exists because too many people are trying to avoid Support all together.

You'd have the exact same problem with all the SR Queue merged together using the new Champion Select that you have with them septate. That's because the ratio of players queueing up for these positions is about the same.

Part of me says no, the other part of me says I want to queue with my bronze friends.

I actually think that smurfs hurt the community really badly. It hurts new players while you level the account, and it hurts the players he has promos with when he trashes an account to bronze. Then to top it off it hurts the community while he climbs back out of bronze.

like i created a smurf account to learn a new role ... i was doing it to learn mid...

i like never play mid

i wouldnt ever play my main roles or main champs on my smurf...

zacktootallDec 1, 20161 votes

no cuz i play the game for fun you can just stay in ranked thank you

GigglesODec 1, 20161 votes

Why is everyone so attached to "normal draft", What would be wrong with having a hidden rank, that could possibly give a reward at the end of season?

The other option would be to make support a popular role.

Or change humanity to stop being selfish brats. No reason to corrupt the role over people's selfish tendencies.

I'm genuinely confused by your comment, support isn't fun because you don't really do much of anything other than warding.

Then you obviously know very little about the role. It's by far and away the most fun I have in the game. If i'm an aggressive support, while my marksman is busy csing I get to have a blast harassing and outright bullying the enemy bot to tower, if not from the lane entirely. If i'm a more defensive, passive support, it's all about timing my heals, shields, and cc carefully. And I get a wonderful item that let's be get my gold without worrying over those little minions.

Either way I get to keep the map well lit up so we have as much information as possible, clear wards to deny that information to the enemy, and most important to me, keep my team alive as much as possible, up to and including body blocking and sacrificing myself so that others may escape.

It's a wonderful and varied role, but those close minded individuals who are only in it to be glory hounds will just think they're "weak" and can't get tons of kills, etc. When i'm an aggressive support i've outdamaged the enemy team often enough, if not my own team.

It's all about perspective. The role is as fun as you make it, and is not for everyone. Thankfully Riot gives 5 roles to fit all types of people and personalities.

I have lots of fun supporting, but only when I'm duo... non-duo adc's are really painful to play with because of how angry they are... all of the time... there are more reasons than you want to acknowledge to why support is unpopular.
