The one thing that would IMMEDIATELY make ranked 10000000000x better

Quit allowing players to play champions in ranked that they have little to no experience with.

I'm tired of losing games where my teammates have little to no experience on their champion, and they are basically the equivalent of beginner bots.

You should AT LEAST have mastery 4 on a champ before you can take it into a ranked game.

Ranked is SUPPOSED to be the mode where you take the game seriously. I'm tired of people goofing around in ranked and ruining games for others.

Just because they play the champ alot doesn't make them good players.

The world's highest mastery Heimerdinger is in Bronze4.

Lol, please. You know deep down it would do nothing. Youve never seen an m5 feed? Or someone troll with plenty of games under their belt with their champ? Mastery level would fix it?

Mastery 4 would lock most of the champs i regularly carry in ranked (or anywhere) with.

Eject thyself, elitist.

That would just make you have to go through hours upon hours of meaningless mastery grinding. You'd need 20 champions at mastery 4 just to play Ranked. Not everyone plays that many champions.

i agree that you shouldnt be allowed to first time a champ in ranked. but i dont agree on a mastery level needed. mainly cause mastery levels just say you played the champ a lot. not that youre good with it.

Skill =/= mastery and vice versa. I have m5 on Camille but I KNOW you would never want me playing her on your team in a million years. Similarly, there are people with alt accounts, smurfs, or new accounts who would have to play a LOT just to get their onetrick to a high enough mastery - or people who are basically pretty good at almost every champ but haven't put the hours in. There's also a possibility that they played that champ on the PBE. There's just too many variables for this to be a viable option.

Yea and how would smurfs be able to play?

I'd just say level 2. If you have decent mechanics you don't need that many games with most champs to be proficient in them. Plus you need to account for bans...

Plus it would make smurfing more annoying, which is always a plus.

Whelp, my one top champ I have at m4 was banned. Time to break out Yuumi, or Janna top.
