Season 6 Ranked Placement Matches - Any thoughts?
This year I think everybody was more likely to place lower after their placements. After reading reddit I saw tonnes of people complaining about the placements and I thought wow, reminds me of every year. But I went and did my placements. Last season I finished Silver 5, which is pretty bad but recently I have been trying to improve. I won 6 out of 10 games and got placed in bronze 4. Now I know some people are gonna expect a rant. But I think this was a great idea by riot to start people lower down in tiers because they did implement that new system where you go through promos quicker if you have done them before. It also tests your attitude towards the game as well, which is pretty cool. It almost felt nice being back in bronze, because I knew in season 5 I made no progress tier wise at all. The last time I was in bronze was actually the summer of 2014, I get a nice nostalgic feeling when I play now but now since I'm back in bronze it will be a much easier time to win games. I'm also getting around 28-31lp which is pretty nice. I mean I did run into a lot of negative people in solo queue today but that didn't stop me at all. Not sure what I think about dynamic queue though, seems like it will make it easier for low elo to climb and make it much harder for high elo players to get to challenger.
People can rage all they want, but you aren't gonna get back to where you were before complaining about it.
