Sometimes the grade system surprises me.

18/1/26 on malphite. When the game ended, I was like "pretty sure I deserve an S+".

Never been so wrong, with a meager S. (Still granted me level 7 Malphite, though, which I'm grateful for.)

I know KDA isn't everything, but c'mon. I was obviously the carry in this game. All other players died much more often, got less kills and assists, I had nearly the highest farm (3 less than both adc's) and no one came even close in terms of damage dealt to champions. I feel like the grading system is skewed towards splitpushing over skirmishing/teamfighting. In this game I HAD TO stick with my team cause otherwise they'd get engaged on and died instantly.

I mean you're kinda right but. What's the difference between an S and an S+?

Bragging rights.

Exactly. (although I already had an S+ on malphite, so it really doesn't matter.)

An S+ requires a perfect (or all but) game. You need to take most of the turrets, ward like crazy, and have a minimum of 220 farm (some supports aside. Raka can get it with 50+ assists). It's not easy, but it's possible. And an S is just as good (effectively). Only difference is bragging rights.
