Today, i played with a Silver 5 mid laner. Not hating on the ranks. My point is: what is the point of playing ranked matches if I am going to be matched with players literally 1 full tier below (or above) me... I'lll go play norms if I want completely unbalanced matchmaking... I play ranks because I like competition and testing my skills.
Bring solo/duo Q back please, Riot. You are making a terrible mistake. You are killing this game, and I don't want it to die.
PDE5 Inhib1 votesI have a feeling they are going to remove ranked all together because it hurts people's feelings when they have a lower rank. They are already heading in that direction, as lp loss/gain is literally the only difference between norms and ranked. There is no difference in competition.

BluePolarizer1 votesnothing wrong with full tank Master Yi. If they weren't doing well, it's better that they build full tank and can at least be useful with base damage from E and Fervor, rather than keep trying to build damage, get exploded in 1 second and do zero damage.
69469238DEL11 votesYeah maybe, except he didn't take fervor, he took STR of Ages
BluePolarizer1 votesTrust me, after spectating silver games, people building tank is the least of your worries.
In the vast majority of silver games I spectate from my friends list the #1 mistake is building too much damage. Then you get deleted by the enemy burst and you wonder what happened. The safest advice for silvers is that if you are not ADC, build as tanky as possible. If you are mid, go for hybrid or utility items over purely offensive ones. If you are top or jungle, go tank.
69469238DEL11 votesLol ok buddy, I'm not Silver but I appreciate your concern
DREADN0UGHT1 votesTbh it has nothing to do with builds. If my jungler goes tank yi im fine with it if that works out gor him. But thr mechanics and the decision making for a bronze/low silver player just isnt exactly what i need in a ranked games.
