Roit your ranked system is so broken here's why...

Last game a typical Silver 3 ranked match up. Our top was afk all game from the very start possibly with DC issues and all lanes fed. Lossed -20 points, mhmm that makes no sense. How does a decent player like myself get out of sliver if I'm docked points based on other peoples bull shit? This honestly implies it takes luck to get out of sliver.

In my opinion the ranking system should be based on player performance in a given role, with a small bonus for winning the game. All this bullshit around playing with noobs to try and get out of silver is just dumb. I blow most gold players out of the water having played league since season one. Not bragging I can prove it to anyone that wants to have a one on one. (pick Cait I dare you) ;)

Anyways just some food for thought perhaps in the future there'll be a system were less points are deducted for actually being a good player on the losing team. This way kids and trolls leavers alike won't have so much barring on someones ranking. As it stands now the ranking system seems like its missing something.

Looking forward to seeing what you guys think - Happy gaming.

Let's see your OBJECTIVE criteria for determining player performance in a given role. Here's a hint, there isn't any. This isn't figure skating. There is one and only one objective measure: destroying the enemy Nexus. Number of kills is not an objective measure of skill. The number of times you're killed is not an objective measure of your lack of skill. Any number of factors come into play in a game. The one constant is whether you win or lose, which you do as a TEAM.
