Bukakkayee·Oct 10, 2014·2 votes·20,647 views

Rito senpais i was wondering what the elo reset wil be this season, if there even will be one. Will it be a soft reset like season 4? or a hard reset? or will there not even be a reset?

It's always a soft reset. A hard reset would be complete insanity. 80% of the players Silver/Bronze mixed in with Gold/Plat/Dia/Master/Challenger, it'd be infuriating for everyone.

And yes I am all for that...I'd like to see the poor elo boosters be sad for next season...or those who buy high elo accounts off ebay

I know you all must hate hard resets but a soft reset really fucks over people as well. For some people a hard reset is the only way to climb out. I started rank wayyyyyy before I was even ready (of course I didn't know that though) and am now stuck in bronze without a chance of getting out. Of course some people's response "well youre a noob and cant climb out cuz you suck." Yes, I do suck. If I was challenger I could climb out easy. But, bronze 5 and not getting better because I'm not being challenged in bronze 5. I'm in a niche group where my skill isn't enough to carry out but I'm also not shitty enough to be in bronze 5 and learn from it anymore. So were someone important to see this I ask that at the very least it is a slightly harder soft reset.

You always have a chance and you will never "get stuck" unless you belong to that specific League/skill level.

Actually you are "shitty enough" since clearly your playing doesn't make any difference overall. The farther away from your skill level you are, the more influential you are to the game. What this means is that if you are finding that you are incapable of swaying the outcome of the game on your own, you are probably pretty near your proper rating or you are not playing proper champions that can influence the game positively.

Not gonna happen bro.

Oh, I sway the fight. But I don't have the skill out sway the other 4 people. its hard for 1 person to change the impact of 4 people. I try and have some success but that doesn't always do it. espc since a lot of times wins give less than a loss takes a way. Its like 1 step forward and two steps back except those two steps are triggered by one loss.

I have never lost a bronze league game, just saying. You simply are not good enough, and need to improve certain mechanics that will help you win the game. It's the same in every league. Something is stopping you from climbing, and it is certainly yourself, and no one else.

totally agree with u, 1 player can´t ALWAYS change a game (thats what u need to get out of it). Same happens to me in silver, i am not that good to carry all my team but not that bad to loose so often. Sometimes i play normal games with a premade team where are a couple of diamonds and 2 golds, we always get fun games (usually we win, and if we dont its a very fair game). Otherwise when i play solo or duo, or just normal (I know the MMR from each is different) i always get a flamer team, or ppls with negattive attitude. NVM, just play 4 fun, play to wein ur lane and then u will improve to play with ur friends :)

That's BS. If you're in B5 then you deserve to be there. It's incredibly easy to win games at that elo. Even with bad teams.

I play my friend's bronze account 5 times after i hit silver 5 and I didnt lost any of them. I do not think it is the team problem it is definitely you! If you do not realize how bad you are and dont want to find your own mistake, you will never get out of what you stuck with.

I was gold 5 before the reset, went 6-4 in my placements, got demoted to silver 3? This is pretty confusing to me
