The rank system is a mess.

Progression ranks? (Bronze, silver, gold) those are fine. Works nicely. Good to use.

Mmr. Pretty okay system. Give pin point accuracy of how good you are at the game.

Then there’s riots system. Where they tried to jam them both into the same fucking system, and instead just gimped them both and fucked their match making.

Oh cool. I have the mmr of a gold player yet I’m bronze. So I’m going to be match against gold players. -.-

So I’m not gold. But I’m being matched with gold players because I’m gold mmr.

But I’m not gold.

God this system is stupid beyond belief.

You don't look to be in gold MMR. Your Match average seems to Be silver 3. My alt for support only was placed Bronze. Skipped every promo to silver 2. https://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=NotNotkaiguy

Why do you think your in gold MMR?

Even if he's not what he claims he is he does have a point.

Why is the promo to gold4 (player in question has a g2/g1 MMR) so much harder relative to the promo to gold4 for someone with a silver1/gold4 MMR? I played my promo to g5 (last season) against g1 and p5 mostly. I don't mind playing these games out of promo because that's what my MMR apparently was at, but the gatekeepers to a certain rank should be in or around that rank, not nearly an entire division above, wouldn't you agree?

Demotion protection at division 4 so folks don't lose their shiny icon is huge.

Look, I wont lie and act like I'm unbiased about the OP.

You tell me what sounds more likely to impact some one's ability to climb.

Running into players with a different border but in a close range of MMR. VS Giving up on a lane because you think literally 1 death GGs it beyond any and all hope.

Not me. I was using it as an example.

I am supposed to take that as an example and know your comment was not about you?
