Yeah, agreed. A harsh reset might be necessary to ensure that the tiers/divisions are distributed more properly.
I know a player who got carried to D5 yet struggles to beat Gold players in lane in normals. :/

Think Bronze V awaits me if I insist on supporting too much.
Doesn't help that my chat windows mysteriously disappeared at game start, but it was going pretty well. Or so I thought. Maybe my teammates were raging and desperately asking for Jungle Trynd to do something.
The world will never know.
id be for a more clear representation of mmr, but that means a lot of ppl will enter matches thinking they already lost (more than they do atm anyway)
like I guess the current system is opaque enough to keep most ppl happy except w/ things like clamping and placements and if things were too r3al the atmosphere of the game would be generally worse mebbe
pls watch my first game of the season against tsm: http://www.twitch.tv/riotgames

Really had nothing to do with you playing support. You just had a really bad team comp, and Diana and Panth are both kinda weak champs in general.
Gonna miss watching Reginald feed now that he's retired
.They did.
Your wish has been granted. Teemo picked by C9.
They banned all of The OddOne's jungles ... cept maybe Nocturne.
Snap. That 1st teamfight.

Unless you're being sarcastic, in S3 it was not possible to be placed in Diamond, Plat 1 was the best possible position right out of placements. I would suppose the same applies this season.

ooooooooh. didn't know that! Seemed like the guy was expecting to be at least Diamond 5, so either he was also under the wrong impression that his 4-6 performance in the placements dropped him down to Plat 1 and couldn't have placed higher even if he won all his games..or he simply stunk it up (he did) and get slapped by the MMR system for it.
not really, it's usually just a bad, boring game
I mean if the koreans played teemo I'd pay attention but this was just bad
btw when regi played teemo it was actually funny. because they lost
hai forced to pick teemo by regi
regi taking league hostage
nah standard games w/ standard picks where ppl make few mistakes are much more boring to me
like just watch ogn or something
well I like bjergsen and voyboy, wouldn't really watch na lcs if it wasn't for them

lord krepo is about to bless us with the power of a greek god.
I kinda do since they decided to keep cop, but I liked the old curse crew, even when they were bad, and this just feels like a new team and voy doesn't look right in the mid lane.
Don't fucking watch the NA LCS and continue to bitch about it then. No one is forcing you to watch the NA LCS.
no I mean
like if you value "good play" or whatever NA LCS isn't exactly where it's at; every good play is an unexpected treat(?), every time TSM actually wins is coupled with the question of how did they win?
but NAs value for me is totally in the weird spectacle of it, the reality TV, every team being distinct in the characters of their rosters, it's status as the moneymaker of esports, etc.
like rekkles tried to be like dblift and also to create his own hashtag but no one cares anymore.
at least 310,000 were watching THAT game; I think that's amazing and hilarious and totally worthwhile
I have no meaningful criticism for any of the scenes, it is what it is, and they appeal to different demographics, and I'm sure Riot is aware of this.
ALSO, zkylon can totally bitch about NA Lcs, like that is an integral part of the na lcs, plus he is a human bean who can do what he wants duh, and u can bitch him out for bitching about it, ugh this is so wonderful

People like reading posts from people along the lines of "wah this is so boring to watch, all teams are awful, etc"? It makes him sound like a wet rag.
You're right. He can post about whatever he wants to post about .... but it begins to get pretty insufferable when you have a choice to tune in or tune out of all these boring matches.
My favorite poster is Nev if that says anything.
huh
yea, to be fair I kind of appreciate this too. the whole curse-clg bench thing, doublelift getting humiliated by every single caster, your gamecrib summaries, etc. is enjoyable in its own right
I don't even think na skill level is that bad, it's just that the quality of the games is pretty awful sometimes. also I hate c9 with a passion
ty friend
when did I say all teams were awful?
I didn't like this game bro, chill
edit: actually I made that remark about going from playing with alex ich to playing with teemo now that I think about it. didn't think it'd upset anyone, sorry
i mean he can not watch ogn and you can not read his posts
my eyes glaze over most of the posts in this thread and im sure its true vice versa
obv saying something is bad without attaching a real personal reason to it will turn my eyes into the most glazed donut
true true
but yea I don't live for this I'm leaving for a party in ten minutes
also like I said in some other post, I like some players so I like cheering for them.
Supposedly there is an AFK buster system which will automatically keep track and possible temp-ban people if they are disconnected at the end of the game (you can tell if they are disconnected at the end by their having a red name in the lobby).
I thought I heard that the tribunal was on hiatus during the preseason, but that could have totally be me being crazy, or a rumor.
In theory charitable people do the tribunal for free, view people who have been reported, mark whether they agree with the reports, and eventually Riot reviews their verdicts and potentially bans people for a week or two.
I disagree about ARAM -- primary appeal is not "excitement" from map configuration or random champions, primary appeal factors include a fast game with constant teamfighting and a variety of champions without having to worry about which champion you pick or whether you are a pro at that champion.
I also respectfully disagree about Lux. She is a GREAT champion to have in ARAM, with snare, slow, shield, and long-range straight line damage. I would suggest she is up there with Jayce, Varus, and Nidalee for great ARAM champions.

Timothy pick?
May god help us all
May god help us all
My only placement game so far, one of the last two people to pick was left with support and jungle...and they said they're a terrible support and could only do Tryndamere jungle.
They actually did fine though and we won. You just gotta trust (and maintain positive attitude and sense of humor and good music).I've been temp banned by the leaverbuster before. My internet is pretty bad and I didn't realize there was a peer to peer default on, which wrecked havoc on my connection. Still get the occasional dc and crash, but it has been a considerably more stable after disabling that.
