According to op.gg there are currently 1.5 million summoners on the Rift. How are they distributed across the spectrum of MMR (League Divisions)?

The last time I saw a population distrubution on ranks (this was before Master tier was introduced) it was sometihng like; 33% of the community was Bronze, 27% was Silver, 18% was gold, 12% was Platinum and ~10% were diamond.

Don't quote me, those aren't solid, that's just to memory as this was a looong time ago

Diamond was never 10%...its like top 2%.

Before Master and Challenger tier were introduced, Diamond was somewhere between 8%-10% if I remember correctly, after those two tiers were introduced it all evened out, and lessened as the game continued to grow more and more popular.

Nah....Diamond definitely never made up 10% of the playerbase. Right now Challenger, Master and Diamond together make up the top 2%. If you add Platinum you are talking about the top 10%. A third of those are Platinum Vs. There is no way Diamond every consisted of 10% of all players.
