HOW DO YOU GET AN S RANK? Craft system is going to rely on it!

Anyone understand exactly how you get better ranks? RIOT doesn't want to support pure killing over objectives so I am assuming it is more than just KDA. I find this a bit odd, to be graded on something you don't know why or how you are being graded. I would love a RED to tell me.

I find more than anything else the number of deaths you have influences your rank more.

Assuming your kda is at least 2:1 these are some of my typical ranks i get at end screen.

S: 0-1 death A: 2-3 deaths B: 4-6 deaths C: more than 6 deaths.

i agree deaths are the most weighted factor in this equation.

All stats matter, KDA just happens to correlate well with all of your stats. If you farm like piss and have little gold at the end of the game, it can bite your score. On the other hand, maybe you don't have the definite best KDA of your team but you participated in all 5 dragons and 10+ turrets being destroyed.

Also your stats are semi relative. If you're above the average of the champion you are playing and above the average of everyone else in your game, you're more likely to get a higher score.

i get s rank all the time as support and the main thing that changes it is deaths

if i go 1/2/15 i will get s rank if i go 1/5/15 i will get b rank

as a carry role 10/5/10 will still get s rank so k/d/a seems to be EXACTLY what matters

But s games aren't that unusual, it's the s+ I was speaking of. It seems damn rare to get it

does it even matter?

When hextech crafting is released it will matter. Expect to see Zed players crying about you ending games earlier when they want to farm kills so they can get an S rank for their chest. Whether or not it helps is inconsequential since they'll try anyways when they don't know.

i average less than 50 cs per game with many s+ rankings

As a support? Cause I have no idea how I didn't get an s+ in that xin game. In a Diana game I also was highest farmed 16/1 or something and only an s.

One of the easiest ways to cheese an S+ rank, is do something incredibly random. Play Kog'maw top, play Udyr support, play Fiora adc. (Not in ranked of course.) -- Since the standards are so low for random champions in random roles, doing remotely will will typically get you a high rank.
