they should go back to season 2 rating system. i dont understand why were literally giving out medals for being shit at the game.

to even get into bronze 1, you have to suck ass at this game. isnt everything below silver 3 less than average in terms of mmr?

Yeah, everything above silver 4/3 is above 50% of the playerbase skill-wise. Not that it matters that much.

well, season 1 and 2 you had at least to be slightly above average to get into bronze. anything less was unrated.

basically where gold 5 is today used to eb the upper range of bronze in season 2. and plat basically used to be what high diamond to challenger is today.

one of the big problems we have these days, is that people think they are the hottest shit, because they made it out of bronze into silver 5 or mid silver area. when thats still a good way below average.

They should higher the requirements for all tiers again. 2 seasons ago, 40% was in bronze and 40% in silver with only 20% gold+. Right now 18% is in bronze and 48% in silver. Silver is incredibly overpopulated atm and nearly no one is in bronze. Gold is 23% and plat 8%, both roughly double of what they used to be. Making tiers easier to acquire just lowers the value of them.

Edit: Forgot that these are the NA boards. In your regio, the distribution is not that terrible, but still far worse than 2 seasons ago.

just give loss forgiven for games with leavers. sure, people may be pushed to leave, but lets not pretend that silver players are not toxic already. this way people wont get stuck in leagues.

Bronze 5 and Silver 1 are vastly different. You don't merge those groups. Are you crazy?
