The Ranked System - My vision.

Bronze (special conditions as they are the only true below 50% winrate):

Hard reset for their own division respectively.

0 wins = Bronze 5 0LP 1 win = Bronze 5 100LP 2 wins = Bronze 4 0LP 3 wins = Bronze 4 100LP 4 wins = Bronze 3 0LP 5 wins = Bronze 3 1000LP 6 wins = Bronze 2 0LP 7 wins = Bronze 2 1000LP 8 wins = Bronze 1 0LP 9 wins = Bronze 1 100LP 10 wins = Silver 5 0LP

Silver and above:

Hard reset at the beginning of every season and employ this for placements:

0 wins = Bronze 5 1 win = Bronze 1 2 wins = Silver 5 3 wins = Silver 1 4 wins = Gold 5 5 wins = Gold 1 6 wins = Plat 5 7 wins = Plat 1 8 wins = Diamond 5 9 wins = Diamond 1 10 wins = Masters

Each win you get 20LP. Each loss you lose 20LP. You lose 20LP for losing your promotion. If you are promoted, you begin the next rank at 0LP. 3 consecutive loses at 0LP you are demoted.

Can someone please give a detailed answer on why this system does not make sense? I personally see this as a highly competitive environment that encourages team play. Albeit, it would be nice to have in-game voice comms to better assist in coordinating team play...

Thanks in advanced for your opinion!

Edited to include Bronze conditions as discussed in the thread below.

Thats not a good idea. Hardresett is something strange. Then everyone will be matched different. Then a Bronze 5 could get matched against a Challenger from the last Season. That would hardly destroy the Matchmaking in every way.

Sure, you'll sort the good and bad player's out in 1-2 month's, till then be aware of 100000 Post in the Forums about unfair Matchmaking. (Much more then they are here atm.)

You cant climb higher with Placements as Gold 1 or Plat 5 if youre new, that got a Reason. If youre a new Lvl 30 and winning all games, mostly you'll become Gold. If you got last Season Silver 5, you'll most likely get Bronze.

You got an hidden MMR and that MMR changes. These LP Points are a bit of help to understand what your rank is. You could be Diamond and still get matched with Silver 1 Guys, when your MMR is bad.

With your LP gain and loss nobody would know, if they are in their "Elo" You got to your Elo, when you get most like 0 lp after a win and a loss ( +20-19)

If you get 25 LP on a win and you loose 15 on a loose, that signals that your hidden MMR ist better the your current Division.

That System is really good in my Opinion. Your system will unbalance everything.

Player 1 will win with luck all 10 Games and get Master BUT he was Bronze 5 in the last Season. What do you think, will happen? Right, he will fall hard the ladder. And the Master's are tilted cus a Bronze 5 Player is in Master. The Player 1 will cry at the board's . Most of the time he will get stomped, cus most (MOST) Master/Challenger know a lot more then other Players about the Game.

Player 2 a Challenger last Season unlucky lost all his Placements (Could happen), he will get Bronze 5. After that, he will climg the ladder really fast. The lower Tierplayer's (Bronze,Silver,Gold etc.) will be tilted.

I know, there happens hardeset's and this could be dealed with 1-3 month's but your climbing system is only a "tilting" system in my opinion.

Think about it. Average win rate is 50%. It's the nature of the game. People would slowly creep towards plat and eventually all end up there.

Lets say a bronze 5 player last season plays, who does he play against?

Game 1? 2? 3? 4 5 6 7 8 9 10?

He has to win something eventually, Whether its getting carried to playing against another bronze 5 player.
