S Rank?

Veritas··3 votes·726 views

I understand that you do not want players to know how S Rank is decided but to be honest it is quite idiotic. In my recent game I was 25-7-28 with the most damage done and the highest kill participation but because I chose to engage fights and poke the enemy team and not aim all my abilities at the creeps it didn't give me S. This is plain stupid, the rank of S should be awarded based on merit, such as damage dealt, damage absorbed for a tank, healing done, etc. it should not be about who can spam their abilities first when you are grouped to get creep score. (This was in ARAM by the way, so the creeps are much less important and you do not get nearly as many as you would in summoner's rift.)

You can only earn rankings by playing Summoner's Rift.

I've received a chest on Twisted Tree.

I guess I was mistaken. Perhaps it was changed as I recently went through a period of a few months without playing. It was basically right after champion mastery was released that I stopped. I was sure that you could only earn champion points on Summoners Rift but it seems you can earn them on 3v3 as well.

We had a team of Ashe, Jinx, Varus, Jayce, and Azir vs Morgana, Maokai, Braum, Anivia, and Soraka. I (Ashe) went Hurricane, Infinity, Merc Treads, Spirit Visage, Black Cleaver, and Wit's End (eventually sold boots for Bloodthrister cause the enemy had like 4 Thornmails) just to be slightly tanky vs their all AP comp and shred armor/mr for my team as well as perma slow the enemy. Yeah, I'm never going to do the same damage as a traditional Ashe would, but the rest of my team did more damage because of that.

How are you going to compare my play of Ashe vs another Ashe when I build to compliment our team comp and counter the enemy? Full combo'ed by Anivia and lived with half health despite my team pinging Danger the entire time cause that would 1 shot them. Half health the full tank Braum with 2 thornmails (I know reflection doesn't stack) through his shield before my team joins the engage. Gets CC'd to death only to have my team come back with an ace after since they burst everything on me.

A-, really?

I play, and play..................when I had my first two S's for Vel'koz the 2nd S didn't give me a second token I didn't know how that could ever be re~inburst, but I eventually got a 3rd and then it counted. I just wanted to post my scores and hopefully these A+'s that should have been S's or my last game 17/0/11 (120cs)I used a pink ward got last hit and most of the damage on a lot of towers/inhibitors; should have gotten a S+...I believe I actually have done worse and my best for Vel'koz says I got a S+. I also recently got 20/3/12 (133cs) & 15/3/17 (203cs) received an A+. I try so hard...I would love playing so much more if I felt like I'm playing towards something other than a tally for a win. Please someone from Roit reply back and say there's hope that there taking all of this in consideration towards changing the S system or something that's more achievable. Thanks for reading 0;~P=}o{|:

As a main support i get a lot of games in which i go 0/1/16 and only get a a rank while my ADC goes 10/1/3 and gets a S rank it seems almost near impossible to get a S rank as a support especially since you are also the main target when it comes to team fights and if u die 2-3 times u can kiss that chance for a S goodbye
