All this would accomplish would be to make games miserable for Silver players and below, as they get stomped hard every single game where they end up with a Plat+ player in it. People have done the experiments already. Heck, climbing the ladder consistently is repeatable to the point where there are people who MAKE MONEY doing it for other people.

For as long as it takes to calibrate the entire ladder. Its not like 100% of the games player base is going to be active in any given week. We still are seeing impact on some players from issues made by riot mishandling their Positional Que and New Divisions and that's been ongoing all season.

the solution is to reset the ladder. that aside game quality is off on euw too and there was no positional ranks there just a bunch of grandfathered in accounts. the ladder requires a reset.

No it doesn't. All it would accomplish is make things worst since now every low elo player will get completely stomped by high elo players and a bunch if lucky low elo players riding high climbing due to the teammates they get are so stupidly better than the opposition since you cannot admit that you need to improve to climb the ladder. "Hey guys match quality is off so let's do something that will make it worst"

game quality is non-existent anymore. why is that? cause the ladder is fucked with the number of grandfathered in accounts. make it a annual 10 year thing, because people experience life and what not, where the ladder/s get hard reset. where mmr get's hard reset, everyone starts at 1200 and we sort the wheat from the chaff. it's fucking god damn near unplayable no matter which queue i use or account i use, there are no quality games to be found win or lose. it's the fucking craziest thing ever.

the games mechanics right now are top notch. there are very little balance complaints. it feels gr8 to handle my own character, but the character has to interact with not only the enemy team but my own team too, and that is where it all goes pear shaped because not everyone is thinking at the same mmr/rank/skill level.

and it's fucking tripe with the current setup of the game (which itself is not bad) so fucking reset the goddamn ladder. especially after this nubrac escapade and people playing all the most useless shit everywhere

The ladder is already soft reset every season. No one in Diamond today was in Diamond at the start of the Season. They climbed to Diamond from around Gold beating other Gold and Platinum players.

Unless your argument is that Diamond players can't beat Bronze and Silver players but CAN beat Gold and Platinum players, the only thing that a hard reset accomplishes is Bronze and Silver players getting their teeth kicked in and Platinum and Diamond players having boring, uncompetitive games.

Way too late for that, but it is a shame that they only reset ranked for Diamond+ back in March. The vastly inflated LP gains at the start of the Season really fucked up the ladder for all elos.
