How do the developers of the fucking game not know how to balance obviously broken things. Taking away all pressure from ADC's early game is just great. Having champs that get to 1 shot me at level 6 is great. Give me the teams ranks. Humor me
Zerenza7 votesMeddler is Gold 2 Riot Novalas is Diamond 2 PHROXZ0N Diamond 5 Riot SapMagic is Gold 2 Riot Repertoir is Gold 5 Wav3Break is Platinum 5
These are the ones you see a lot on the boards, keep in mind Meddler and Repertoir are lead designer's, they're not really responsible for balancing the game just checking on everything and cutting in when they need to and are very responsible for the business side, likely not having time to climb. Novalas is generally what you see when you get to their Playtester's and here's the other's.
Brandon "Roku" Davis Diamond 5 Chris “Auberaun” Roberts Challenger 485 LP Nick “Riot Endstep” Frijia Diamond 3 Sigmundur “GangIeri” Helgason (He has an alternat account for playing, rank unknown) Arnor “Riot Hjarta” Halldorsson Diamond 3 Miktat “Riot Koyuncu” Koyuncu Master's 52 LP Brian “Riot Madness Heroo” Pressoir Diamond 1 Dan “Riot penguin” Hardison Diamond 4 Robert “ROBERTxLEE” Lee Diamond 4 Louis "nubblez" Carpetto Platinum 1
Here you go, though it seems to me that you either made an alternate account so we couldn't call you out on your rank, or you got banned for being toxic.
AnAggravatedPimp3 votesThe balance team just makes the changes but their ranking vary.
The Riot playtesters, last I checked, are all high diamond

where do i check the full list? All I can find is their filtered list leaving out the lower ranked people. I made a post breaking down their old system and the average rank came out to S2 (including only people in balance team and playtest) so I'd like to know where you found this information of all high diamonds.

He's not a play tester though, he just helps implement changes. Someone just posted the rankings of some of the playtester and the lowest ranked Red is Plat 1 with the highest being challenger.
Zerenza2 votesJo is the "Lead Gameplay Designer" and only helps to implement changes and also isn't solely responsible for them, Riot Repertoir is also a "Lead Gameplay Designer" along with Meddler, Maple Nectar and Sotare. They all have their roles, it's not like one person is the be all end all, it's a system and requires a large number of people, most of which are high ranking or were at one point. Not to mention, Fearless uses his Fearless account as for Riot but has an alternate for playing the game normally, like most Rioter's do.
Also cough your silver 1 cough
Aniohn1 votesthats still one whole rank higher than jo so im not really bothered by it still better than you lol
Tahminatrix 1 votesLucian still has pressure earlygame….I just wish riot would stop treating all adcs as late game champions....they are all individual champions that happen to rely on auto attack and riot should have the ability to fine tune their kits to be stronger earlier in the game while also having less steroids / slightly weaker items, if a champion is designed to be late game then let em be/compensate them
Fanekinha1 votesRIOT supports smurrfing .... it is impossible to have balanced games when high ELO players decide to show their friends monkeys how good they are lol or boosting .... so sad to see ppl smurffing and running away from their true ELO ... .SAD see RIOT doing nothing against smurff ... most of the games are constantly fighting to end up with multiple accounts ... RIOT does not understand why the game is in decline .. 1- free runes , problem: create a level 30 account for ranks much faster 2 - the new pages of runes will bring a giant problem in the balance of the champions 3- impossible to rise in rank alone, there is no Q made only with SOLO players. The result of all this: troll feed insult..because you can simply create another account. Question, what is the difference between a 5 year account with a 1 year account? you turned a 40-minute game into a 5-minute game just to please the 5-minute players, now they were all for the fortnite and your old players got this game turned into shit If you want to hire me call me ... you still have time ...
cuddlykitten41 votesThe only thing you could legitimately do to prevent smurfing is subscription fees. Riot wants to avoid that. There's no way to isolate which specific person is playing which accounts. You'd have to deter the people from wanting to make another account at all. This still won't stop banned accounts from making a new one though. A problem you can state simply does not always have a simple solution.
ggNoRe4realz1 votesThere are actually many non-pay ways to stop smurfing. For example, Dota 2 makes you link a phone number to your account (and they ban people at a much lower rate and punish them in game instead). So unless you spend 60 bucks on a burner phone every time you get a new account you cant easily smurf.
