Another S ranking post.

I literally need 1 more S ranking to get mastery 7 on chogath, and now apparently all the Chogath mains are tryharding since getting 3 less than a perfect 15 kda isnt enough. Seriously there needs to be some way to get instant feedback on what I'm doing wrong.

If you think that if you gave people feedback on what they are doing wrong will make them work to acheive an arbitrary number you are missing the fact that people are already doing that. Seriously its likely that alot of people are splitpushing and turning the game into season 3 for the simple fact that they want an S ranking. Meanwhile it could be assist that they are lacking. But if you dont show them that it will make them Ks more thinking they need more kills.

KDA isn't everything

I can tell you exactly why you didn't get an S on that: You needed a few more kills and about 10 assists, and at least 150-200 farm. It appears to use the exact same formula for everybody except supports.

I went 17-0 as Akali in 32 minutes, no S. 9/1 Irelia jungle, no S. I mean, I'm not a design professional but assassins should be graded for kills over farm and assists, as their job is killing. Fighters should be rewarded for low deaths, and high kill AND assists. ADC's should also not be penalized for low assist since they are the carry above all else.

The system is pretty screwed up. Anybody who has no deaths 30 mins into the game and double digit kills deserves the S, automatically. Seems to me like they really have no clue how to give S' the same way they can't handle matchmaking and the same way they rely on an outdated 17th century concept of "ELO" designed to measure one guy's advantage over another in a chess game rather than a 5 on 5 multiplayer super variable game in 2016.

Or even fucking better base it off damage dealt and damage taken.

In vainglory there is a theory that kda is entirely worthless. You can killsteal every possible situation, you can go into fights use one ability then only help where you have to, then run if anything is even remotely threatening to you. This wont win you alot of games but it will give you close to a perfect kda every time.

If you want to accurately see how effective people are base tanks off damage taken (also remove reduced damage from the damage taken equation) base mages, adcs, and assassins off damage dealt, and base supports off wards placed and cc landed.

While this removes cs from the equasion cs is very easily cheated and shouldnt be in the equation as it pretty much says: A you splitpushed all game B you could have taken farm from the gold hungry carries if you are fed as hell on an assassin and C you are jungleing on a champion for top or adc and dont get much farm each game.
