Hey i recently started to play alot of gp, but no matter what i do i usually end up with B or B+ rank, i usually never get so bad rank but when i took one game as poppy i got S.

Is there something wrong with the ranking system? because im doing pretty well in all of them and before this i could litterally count every rank i have ever gotten under A on my fingers....

Your overall ranking depends on a multitude of things: Damage per minute, Gold per minute, CS per minute, Kill participation, tower damage and destruction, and your total amount of deaths. Here are two examples of where I got either an S or an S+ on my bronze smurf account, both playing Garen, the best champion in the game:

Analyzing them I have an extremely high KDA with only 1 or 2 deaths and do the most damage on the team by far, comparative to their deaths. I destroyed most of the towers purely on my own, although that doesn't show, and had decent CS with around 7.0 per minute or actual good CS in the one which I had around 9.0. My gold count comparative to my own teammates and the enemy team was immensely high, averaging about 5k-7k just from the looks of it.

Just doing okay isn't enough to get an S or an S+, which I appreciate. It is my belief that the highest grade possible should only be received if you play to almost or to the highest level possible. A lot of gamers are spoiled now and days, receiving the best rewards with minimal effort put forward or little time put into the game so when they "carry" and don't get an S they get upset when in reality an S should only be received if you did everything good. Just beating up on some people who played slightly worse than you (or people who are playing at a C level) isn't deserving of an S. You have to do EVERYTHING extremely well.

That's why you got a B or a B+.

Well thank you for the essay but i mentioned i usually get pretty good ranks, but with other champions. Like i could probably go play one game of some braindead support and get S+, and i mained jungle a while back and even then when i just played like an idiot i still got S+ every other game or so.

Well, judging by your op.gg your cs count isn't even enough to grant you the grade of S or S+. Averaging 5 to 6 on Ganplank is horrendous considering his immense waveclear. Your Damage is also relatively lackluster.

Most of your games are hardly deserving of an S ranking. The only one I saw that might have been an s was this one: https://gyazo.com/bc8f82db08a35bfdeab3b8d1c66d70ba

Maybe there's a lot of players with gp who got crazy KDA along with good objectives participation and a lot of farm.

You see, Poppy's don't usually get a shit ton of kills, so that was godly or Poppy. However, GP usually does, as well as a shit ton of CS.

The average CS for GP players is extremely high so yours needs to be extremely high as well if you want S ranks.
