Can someone help me with my getting an S?

So today i played Zoe mid and got a KDA of 13/0/9 with 12 vision score and highest magic damage on the team. I got 108 CS in a 34-minute game. I received an A- and it kind of tilted me. I just wanted to ask if anybody with an M6 or M7 (on any champion) can tell me how they managed to get it. It was my best Zoe game in a long time and the A- made me a bit angry. Advise would be appreciated [sg-soraka]

Higher ward score Take more towers Be at more objective kills

I had most towers on my team, and i got 5 shutdowns, all between rampage and legendary. I even took down a 5/0 kayn solo. It might of been my 12 vision score. But i did place the most wards in the game. It was a normal draft pick btw so dont expect me to be Diamond [sg-miss-fortune]

i just got out of a 34 min.. game... i was support.. i had 88 CS

( of course most of that was becuase my ADC left leaving lane and wasnt Csing so i took it.. but)

still for the first 10-15 min.. i wasnt CSing really at all.. and i had 88 by 34 min

your cs should be at LEAST 150+ at 34 min

and your vision score should be in the thirties at the bare minimum just from pink wards alone

CS is really where i suck most at league. The most ive ever had was 194 in a 61 minute long game with Anivia where i had to ult farm super minions a ton. I even tend to be 10-25 CS by the end of laning phase [sg-janna]

Also im bronze 1 so dont expect overestimate the people in my games [sg-miss-fortune]

That's your issue. CS is heavily counted in getting S scores. It'll be a wee bit boring but I advise just practicing CS in the practice tool.

Cs is way low. Also, you're playing a champ that people routinely go bonkers on. The more "OP" a champ is, the harder it's going to be to get a higher grade since the grades are based on your performance vs the average performance at your skill lvl. Can't emphasize enough how heavily Cs is weighted in the grading system.

Here's the deal with S grade:

  1. Its based in comparison with other people who played that champ today. (so you need to do as good or better than all the other Zoe players today)

  2. CS CS CS... Vision score is a nice supplement but you need at least 80cs per 10 mins. with a nice healthy KDA to get an S. Now that doesnt mean you need to get 80 cs in the first 10 mins.. you can get all of them in the last 20. But if you playing a game that's 30-35 mins long... you better have 225-250 cs with a sexy KDA, (Start pushing all lanes then leave before the towers(the enemy will push back and give you more cs) or farm the enemy's jungle and urs if ur jgler is not doing his).

  3. KDA... If your death count is more than 40% of your kill score, you're not getting an S.

There's a lot of other factors but those are the main ones... CS... KDA.. and how good you actually have to do depending on the champ. If you play MF or Zoe... a lot of ppl are playing her today.... If you play Skarner or Sejuani you're not gonna need to get 30 kills.

I'll just give you the basics/a base on what to work on [which I use myself to improve]

  1. 108 CS at 34 minutes isn't remotely good--generally speaking you should reach about 100 cs at 20 minutes and 200 cs at 30 minutes [as a base] + 100 cs every 10 minutes from that point onwards

  2. Ward score should be higher--not insanely high but around 20 wards in that time span of a game

  3. KDA was very good but it needs to be balanced out by the rest

  4. Map control/roaming/pressure counts as well since the Riot system [as far as i know] does track the lane you're in and what you do being placed in said lane [so if you farm the same 0/13 person over and over again it's recognized by the system]
