Like no 400 normal game minimum.. no nothing. Just go right ahead and ruin peoples teams left and right.

Why do these people even play ranked? LOLOLOL whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

You're not going to win. If you just hit 30 and you jump in ranked allllllllll you're doing is hoping your team fking carries you. Thats it. This game is so much luck i swear. I even play OP Garen just to give myself that edge now and it DOEST FKING MATTER

People on my team are just ugh. JUST UGHGHGHHGHGGH

And I don't try to be mean. I really don't. I try to keep my team together and not let them get discouraged. IT DOESNT MATTER. Its so funny how all these "stats" about people who dont rage win more games yet all I see is how many challengers and plats rage and get mad at their teams lol. Being nice does not win you games lol. I'm really sorry it doesn't, it just doesnt happen.

Just go right ahead and play that ranked "oh i play ranked cuz they take it more seriously.." YEAH they do. And apparently since you barely know what you're doing and joining ranked anyway, you're not taking it seriously at all. If you were, you'd go practice more. Get like 300 normals under your belt at least. Something my GOD

ugh. I really had to get that out. wow. I mean. You just cannot beleive YOU CANT POSSIBLY make this stuff up how some of these people are.

And on top of that I got this Veigar on enemy team so proud of himself for winning his lane wants to TALK SHIT to me. Just talk shit. "get rekt" "take my dick" Garen u scrub takes 0 skill" meanwhile they have skarner on their team lol. Like. There's no end to it. Not even playing a broke ass champ wins you games your team will do everything in their power to fucking lose.

Normal win requirement wouldn't really do much to fix the problem. For one, that would just make more pointless time put into secondary accounts, and two, 400 wins does not equal skill. There are people with 2000+ normal wins who still do not have fundamentals down, or know that upgrading your trinket is cost effective. Also there are people with 200 wins that are better than most silvers/golds?

It would end up being a pointless time frame where people just grind it out and complain on forums they're still XXX wins away from being able to start playing the real game. And likely do it out without actually working on improving skills/understanding of game.

If getting from 1-30 doesn't teach you the basics of the game, then the next 10-5000 normal games aren't likely to either, you'll either bottom out at bronze 5 0 lp, and finally figure out that you need to work on your stuff, or have some idea what you're doing and top out wherever you happen to get stuck, then after being stuck there for long enough, figure out you need to work on things.

No amount of normal wins will teach you anything about the game, unless you're willing to learn it, and understand why you need to learn it.

To new level 30s: You don't want to look back and regret, man. Don't ignore everyone's advice. Don't play before you have 400-500 normal games under your belt.

Looking back at my very first ranked games . . . I am so sorry to my former teammates. If I could take it all back, I would.

Like. I didn't even own Lucian. That was when free week champions were allowed in ranked. That was probably my first time as him. It didn't even occur to me that I should play champions I have experience with.

That flash heal GA Annie? Yeah that was support. I played that 3 times in my provisional, no experience with supporting. I distinctly remember someone telling me I wasn't doing anything. And 0/5/0 42 cs teemo. I just.

I was really disappointed I only got placed in B3. Looking at it now, I am appalled that I wasn't placed directly in B5.

And then after I failed my placements horrifically, I started spamming item 3085 MissFortune. Really, I thought it was very strong.

I will look @ your recent history in ranked later on this morning. My experience is with lane control regardless of what lane I'm controlling one lane always feeds the enemy team which snowballs the whole game.

Well, in my opinion it is okay to let people who are lvl 30 play ranked.

They will be matched with summoners with the same elo-mmr-w/e, they have only 10 games to "ruin people's games" and if they're bad enough they'll go to bronze 5.

First of all, not only you have to be lvl 30 but you have to have bought 16 champions(if i remmember correctly).

So this people has been playing league for, lets say, a month and they have bought champions they like, and they want to play some ranked. Then why the hell not? The only reason i can think of is runes. Maybe there should be a runes restriction because it gives you a big edge. However, i dont think they should have like 400wins on normals, that wont change the fact that there's a system who matches people of the same level(I'm not saying that the system is perfect, but it kinda works in long terms).

If you are matched with this people, then you're only a little bit better than them, dont analize to much at your teammates. If you improve yourself, you WILL climb, i can tell.

I've been playing since early season 3 and i have been in bronze 5. I'm currently gold 4, not that high, but i've climber though bronze and silver in the past. And maybe being nice wont win games but focusing on your own skill will.

Hope i'm helpfull.

And by the way, you should mute people like veigar who only wants to make you salty.
