The grading system is very inaccurate(at least for support)

So I just had a game as Blitzcrank , went 6/4/11 with 50 cs and 47% kill participation. This score isn't even any special right? But it got me an S! Yet the other day I was also on Blitzcrank except I did so much better and went 2/2/21 20cs with 66%KP but only got an A! How does this even make any sense? My assumption is that CS weights very heavy when it comes to grading. I have seem this occur with many youtuber and streamers too, one game they might do very well had tones of kills but had low cs and got As, meanwhile other times they play very poorly had to farm up and unable to participate in teamfights due to being behind, yet those games they get S!

This might make sense in some roles, but please! Supports shouldn't get graded base on CS, that is just nonsense!

Cs and towers are weighed heavily in grading

Which supports shouldn't touch in order to give the carries more gold.

if you have relic shield you should also when your carry is dead or has backed you can cs

i find item 3301 much better on blitz btw I always take cs when my carries aren't there no matter what item i have

iv heard that the system compares you to others in ur elo playing that champ in that role (and that it might track what role you are in by where you spend most of your time on the map, bot? mid? all over the jg?) since many tank champs take relic sheild and there for cs cause of it.. that could be why the cs was valued a lot? because i dont think the system looks at ur item build

but idk, it does seem kinda faulty.. it seems silly not to get at least an S- if you had a perfect kda w/ a good amount of kills/assists (which iv seen ppl just just A's for perfect kda)

Damage taken? I've been seeing this stat has actually been pretty valuable for tanky tops and tanky supports (for obvious reasons), so perhaps that's it?

damage taken is honestly a stupid data, squishy carries who have very low resist tend to have much more dmg taken than tanks who actually tank a lot of dmg.

It's not bad as you're only compared to the same champions.

I have had games that made me suspect damage done had a factor in the grade. Very hard to prove though.

Ancient coin better on blitz? You get an F.

It was actually the recommaned item for blitz last season, but this season they just unified all the tank support recommand to relic shield.

It's way too kill and cs dependent for support

In general the grading system is overly biased towards CS. This is ok for none supports for me as it makes it very reproduce-able. But only because I like farming high numbers.
