Positional ranked removal

Killimanjarooo··2 votes·1,616 views

I am aware of the problems that have came with the positional ranked system. I am for the removal as it removes some incentive for players to try when in off roles or abuse bugs as you are aware of. BUT. I am here to talk about the players like myself who have been focusing on ranking up every single position.

At the beginning of the ranked season, i was placed Bronze 2 in every position. I have dedicated the time to climb in every single roll and have successfully climbed to silver 3/2 in every single position. I am not one to 'main' a position because I enjoy being versatile and get bored of the repetition that comes with said 'maining a position'. It is VERY unfair that now that Riot sees these bugs, and are gonig to remove the system, players like myself lose all this time and effort put in. It is a big F*** you in my opinion; for not even considering the just about 2 month period I have clawed my way through this elo trap. Now it was all for nothing because 99lp mid, 67 lp jg, 97lp adc, 55lp top, and 80lp sup, just means I deserve to be Silver 3 99lp.

I am no way the only person that is being negatively effected by the removal, and we deserve to be compensated in some way.Brand because we are being burned.

Aren’t you getting your highest possible rank or are you complaining that because you split your time around you should be Silver?

Not so sound mean but theoretically even if you spent the time ranking up in multiple roles, that also means you've been playing around people of the same skill levels the whole time. As much as you may feel that compensation is deserved, you shouldn't potentially be ranked up all the way to (for example) gold 3 instead of silver 3 if you got there from playing people with an average of a silver 3 skill level. If you played silver 3's consistently, then you can only prove you're better than said skill level. Not saying this to discredit you, because I can understand the struggle of having had to work through multiple roles, but that's just how I see it.

I for one enjoyed the positional rank system, I only played 2 different roles on it because as u stated playing the same role over and over can get boring and I liked having different ranks for the different positions I played. Positional ranks you will be missed.
