No you don't need to make some fake ass statistics and show it to us, you got the real ones and you just need to show them to yourself. Look at them, look at them and try to convince yourself that you have done a great job, balance and matchmaking wasn't screwed up, champions and items weren't terrible, the only reason players are leaving is because they are stupid. Look at them and see if you can still believe those.

The last time Riot gave us a player-base update way back in 2014.

There's probably a reason for that.

Do you have those numbers?

Care to share them?

No... you don't have numbers? Then you're just talking out your azz.

You have absolutely nothing to counter Riot's Statement that "Ranked Player Base has grown".

Now, when you bring some actual numbers.... like you suggest they do... then you might have a leg to stand on.

"I have numbers but hey I'm not showing them, just keep in mind that we are always correct and the playerbase is growing despite all those hate you see everywhere!" Do you expect anybody with a functional brain to believe that. Oh you probably won't understand because you don't seem to have one.

And how is Riot not talking out of their 'azz'?

They don't have any evidence, and lack of data on our part (because Riot refuses to release it lately and you sheep won't listen to anything that isn't directly from Riot), doesn't make them right.

In fact, it makes them more wrong because there's likely a reason they aren't sharing data they've willingly given out in the past...because it runs contrary to what they want you to believe.

Does anyone honestly think Riot would stick with a decision long term if it lost them players? No. They're in the business of making money. And more players spending more money is who keeps food on their tables, and bonuses at the end of the year. If they were really losing droves of players over the DQ and meta changes, they would go back. They're there to make profit, not to mess with the game at the expense of income.

I'm guessing most of these people complaining know very little to nothing about Business.

Growth is good, Decline is bad.

If there was an actual Decline, it would hurt the bottom line and Riot would say "Crap, losing money. Need to revert back."

But some how people think "Oh, they will go broke for spite!"

No, no they won't. They like pay checks. If Dynamic Queue had really flopped and lost Player Base, Riot would be reverting.

They tried it, and despite being flawed... it worked.

Some people just don't cope well with things, and lash out about things they know little about.

Sure, they'll just say eff you while they go broke because they can. That's what businesses do.

Yes, provide us a graph of the playerbase that shows the amount of veterans, who have been dedicated to this game for the past 6 years, are leaving. Each having spent hundreds on the game.

All for new players and their friends who might drop $10 once a year.
