I got to silver last season, I don't precisely know everything about the ranked system, but I'm kinda upset, I checked my profile to see it say I was unranked last season and that I didn't have my border. I'd love some information on why this is. [zombie-nunu-bummed]
Hey there!
Riot is bringing in quite a few Ranked changes in Season 9, and one of those is that Ranked borders are no longer based on previous seasons but rather on what your current rank is. You can read the paragraph from this source below, which goes over this exact change:
Rank Border Next season, you’ll unlock your rank border as soon as you finish your provisional games for a position. You’ll be able to see it grow and change as you climb the ladder. In addition to the loading screen, the current design adds your live rank to your profile, hovercard, and lobby, so your friends will be able to marvel at your skill.
I hope this serves to clear up some confusion you may have~ [sg-ahri-2]
My friend got the same problem. We were both gold last season, but the client says that he was unranked (in his profile), while it says I was gold (in my profile). Now we can't play together because "the difference between ranks is too high".
We were the SAME rank (gold) last season and are both unranked now. Tell me where "the difference" is, please :T
Edit: Right now we are both going to play a solo ranked game, maybe after that our provisional ranks will solve the problem, but that's just a guess.
Edit2: It solved our problem
