Someone explain me how this is possible?
A+ for a perfect, 0 death, game where I participated in 71% of the kills? What? How am I supposed to get an S with a Janna ?

It's cause the Corki didn't buy a trinket. As a support, you should have bought one for him because he needs that extra bit of help /s
Sarcasm aside, he has one though, it's just out line because he has less items than everyone else.
Well spotted lol I assumed he didn't have one. Gotta look closer next time.
By the way, did you know if you leave base without trinket it will automatically spawn the yellow one. It's almost impossible to not have a trinket xD
Where the heck did you hear this? It's not true.
Yes it is. It was in one of the last few patches.
If you're referring to that Siv HD video, he blacked out the trinket slot, and then removed it on command. It didn't auto buy.
Try it right now then, it works trust me. I saw the Siv video and me and my friend started doing it, messing with other people in our games lol
Show me a link where that shows when they changed it.
I actually can't find it in any patch notes :S
It works though, try it in a custom game real quick or something. I would make a quick video but I'm in school atm
It actually does work. I just dont bother to buy it in store to save time, and i believe its just as you pass the inhib turrets, little past that, in any direction, it puts the yellow one in your inventory. item slots? whatever you call them.
For Holly Hell that escalated quickly ._.
You have to get a few kills and 20+ assists for an S rank. I've gotten S ranks with Tahm and Nautilus.
Even if it's for the support role? I thought the game checked which role and lane you were and awarded a grade based on your role. I mean... I got a lot of S grades on my Sona and Karma because I got a toolkit to get kills, but with Janna? The toolkit is one of the most selfless in the game beside Soraka.
Actually Riot refused to reveal the exact criterion used in the grading system, but I'm pretty sure kills are given too heavy a weight, even for supports. My roommate plays a lot of Zyra support, and KS a lot, and received a lot of S grades that I didn't think were really deserved.
Also, if I remember correctly, the grading system is supposed to compare you with other people, it's not an absolute grade base on raw numbers. Possibly, the exact same game played a couple of months apart could get you different grades, because the average level of the community has increased in-between. And I think it compares you with other people who play both the same lane AND same champ, so if you play some off-meta pick well, it can be real easy to get S grades, too.
I hate that little sliver of mockery in your mastery where it's like "Oh yeah nice job bUT NOT NICE ENOUGH LOSER"

Look at the end of the build, not the end of the slots.
well i feel a little retarded now, lol! I guess i am more in need of coffee than i realized!!! Spent a long day yesterday doing placements...it drained the life right of me....so much stress. Still have one more match to go.

I feel for you. Coffee keeps me alive. I won 4 yesterday but the toxicity was too much, so i took a break.
Oh buddy lmao
dude im stressing over this last placement game...i thought i was in good shape for mmr on op.gg...i found someone that placed silver 5 with a higher mmr rating on op :( SOOO much sad face![zombie-nunu-tears]
So i chanced upon some post today explaining the rank system. Thing is, the highest people can achieve on their rank is Plat 1, meaning everyone that were diamond 5 and higher are all cramped to plat 1 and below and subsequently shifting everyone below down a full tier. However, once people start playing more and more, it will climb back to normal
Oh thats playing dirty right there....If i place bronze, i swear to everything holy in this land i will not sleep until i get out ! i absolutely refuse to spend one more day there.
#NeverAgain
Welp i'll be there with u in hell buddy :)
I loved bronze So many ignorant flesh bags to slice up
yeah...i mean sure, itll be short stint in the slammer...but its jail time none the less and time i could be spending climbing the ladder instead of climbing out of the mud to get to the ladder i was just knocked off by rito...bunch of meanies*[slayer-jinx-unamused]*
What do you have against mud? Mud is a very important part of the ecosystem
And this is why the new Hextech crafting is a bit of a joke. For supports, it's harder to get an S than other roles. I'm not saying it's a lot harder or impossible. But games like this show the flaw that happens in the system.
If all goes well, you should be getting your ADC an S, which also gives you a chest.
Only if you queued up with him/her. If you didn't then the S doesn't matter to you.
Fair point.
I stopped paying attention to grades. Doesn't even matter to me, I'll decide if my KDA was good or not.
I'm not even sure why grades exist. They're supposed to help you want to improve, but then you get games like this where 'My KDA was amazing, why is my score so bad!' and leaves you baffled.
Wards ;D
Psh. Only 8 farm. Work on your csing bro. (joke)
I got S yesterday as support with like 6/10/17 lol
Janna is really easy, so lots of people do well with her which makes it harder to achieve S. You basically have to 1v5 Pentakill with your Tornado to get an S- with Janna
Janna easy? Yeah no.
nice response. but unfortunately for you, he is partially right - the reason why you didnt get an S+ while going 0/0/17 is because the system calculated that you just arent doing as well as other Jannas.
https://support.riotgames.com/hc/en-us/articles/204211284-Champion-Mastery-Guide
The relevent bit: "This is percentile-driven; earning a high score means you performed in the top x% of players in that champion/position combination."
So if you didnt get an S+, that means the algorithm riot uses tells them that your janna play just isnt S+ material. So maybe, just maybe, shielding your ADC in a stomp to go deathless but with a bunch of assists isnt good enough. Maybe wards placed? Wards cleared? Damage? (remember, its compared to other Janna Supports around your rank, so youre not competing against carries).
You didnt upgrade your trinket
My guesses are that:
I have an example (S rank as Nami): http://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/2073882183/1?tab=overview
Ratings are based off of time. So for 33 minutes, you had below the average amount for Janna in several areas which can include damage dealt, damage taken, gold earned, creep score, kills, damage healed, etc.
Deaths and assists are only two of the many slots looked at, and honestly for Janna that's not that special. She has the highest average KDA of champs for a reason - she is incredibly safe.
I know your problem. You forgot the most valuable thing to do. Ahem.. Wait for it...
UPGRADES! You failed on your booties and your trinket. You only get an A+
Support main, I never got an S+ until I decided to start playing ADC. I'm a bit annoyed by how the new Hextech crafting is going to give rewards based on those grades.
i get it all the time on sona and braum.
Lul, I can't tell if this ks'ing joke was on purpose or not. I'm going to go with yes xD
i'm being serious. usually i end up with 2-5 kills(usually after adc dies or something. with sona accidental ks'ing does happen tho) and if i have under 5 deaths and a good amount of assists s+
The OP was playing Janna. Of course she won't have kills, a high level, or gold. She's support.
Also, whats the point of Janna AAing a tower or inhib when her AAs do no damage. She's better off making sure enemies don't get to the carry thats takin down the tower.
