Wholesome tips for brand new players.
Ok so, listen; I see a lot of new players complaining about it, so I'll tell you how you can have a better experience.
- Lvl your account to 30 by playing mostly vs bots.
- Only play Solo Q after.
That's it, trust me. You don't really care how good or bad you are at the game, you don't care about the fkin lp and the ranked system, you only care about learning the game while playing at a similar skill level. Blinds and Normal draft will match you randomly with any ranked players from Iron/Unranked to Challenger. Flex ranked games are basically Normal draft 2.0 where everyone's Solo Q rank is usually way higher so it's same shiz, you get a franken-mix of skill levels and it's just a fiesta all day every day. You'll still come across smurfs and whatnot but this way it'll be the exception rather then the norm and if you drop below a certain threshold in elo you'll almost never see them as they're usually way higher or simply breeze through said elo in like 7 games max then they're gone never to be seen again.
