If you do normal drafts, you will likely encounter a 'Diamond' player every other match or so. I put it in quotations b/c 4/5 of these will be bought accounts (or boosted).
Ergo I'm starting a petition to rename Diamond V 'The New Bronze'.
I'm only half kidding.
PhearBunny1 voteslol dude. Every bracket pre Masters or Challenger is the equivalent of like Silver5.
Past that point, either you main ADC or Support, and actually have a say in what games you win or lose. ORRR you just spam games and marginally luck your way through every division.
Mysticman891 votesI mean I got my legitimately got my D5, and now hang out in like silver/gold-ish mmr normal draft (and arams), but I'm almost certainly playing champs/roles I wouldn't normally play in ranked. (Occasionally I'm also literally drunk for added spice too.)
I'm sure I look super boosted and/or bought at times, but I wouldn't conclude anything about the legitimacy of someones rank by their play in normals.
