Played a smurf game at level 12, yeah?
Got my friend to play again.
Went against legit 4 smurfs. While I was the only smurf on my team.
How can I hope to show someone that the game can be fun when we get shit on by Gold and Plat smurfs??

DSØ1 votesThe other problem with the MMR system is of people playing ranked a handful of people ontop of the smurfs do not belong in their elo. Typically someone is either worthy of being high gold/plat or higher or just being plain old bronze/silver.
People who climb will keep climbing over time and stomp all over their games. The game really boils down to who plays against the aspie and gets fed.
I.E, if you have two people in a bronze game on enemy teams both are high elo, but one gets stuck against someone playing safe who also counters them vs the other high elo fighting a dumbass who just feeds again and again, he will stomp on the game.

DSØ1 votesRiot makes money off xp multipliers which is part of their business plan
