You don't get to 2200~ solo queue without having the skill to get there. Don't let the elo hell people delude you.

He can only play a few (viable) champions though, a bit like hotshot. Wet dream is below, or was below my solo queue elo, so I can see him getting some bashing for being on SK.


Actually Shushei is not that high on solo Q either.
But you know. He is one of the most trolling solo Q ladder individuals.


The thing is there are a LOT of good players who just don't give 2 shits about solo q and hate solo q with a passion. Arranged 5's is a lot different from solo q in not only playstyle but builds and champs you can more effectively use.

For example shaco can be really strong in solo q but you'd never really see him in arranged 5's because of the amount of warding and team play shuts gank-centric champs that need kills to do well down.
The same thing can be said for players who generally are good players and play well in a team, but have trouble playing with randoms.

I am being told that 1520 is the confirmed cutoff by a friend.

aww I've been trolling knowing that i can't reach up to gold anyways. I was at like 1550 on my US account before I started. Oh well, that's my punishment for playing Garen.

Real..... 1900's is plat
and 2500's is still plat

Really? 1875... 25 to go for the new plat?

Can't access the ladder rankings (site is down) so I can't check where the plat cutoff is.
Also I don't wanna play now, potentially lose my 1875 and run into a stream of bads just to have Riot revert everything back to 1874 = silver, 1875 = gold.

I NEED AN OFFICIAL STATEMENT
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

Ok so I can potentially drop 355 elo without losing gold... Worth taking a shot at platinum.

This is just redicilous. So much for the Jarvan skin meaning anything.

wow there are more bads than I thought if those percentage points are right. i guess it makes sense if he is counting everyone, not just ranked players.

12720 people are 1520 or higher with as few as 10 games played. I think it should've been top 1% for gold.

Which means, 4240 people = 1%, thus:

1900+ Platinum = 848 people
1520+ Gold = 127,20 people
1400+ Silver = 42,400 people
1250+ Bronze = 101,760 people

and 4,240,000 people are ranked on NA.

Top 1% would've been ~1668 rating
Top 2% would've been ~1572 rating
Top 2.5% would've been ~1543 rating

It describes a lot of people though, that's the thing. You can have a really really good understanding of the game but be horrible at leading others. In these cases your knowledge benefits only you and not everyone on your team. Sometimes that means your lane is warded well, you're ungankable and such and don't die, and perhaps even farm well or get a kill in lane. But that doesn't benefit the rest of your team, only you. And that advantage of you doing better than your lane opponent might not equate to your team doing better than the enemy as a whole. If you leave your lane to go help others it might make you lose your own lane and only put your team farther behind too.

In competitive play you can have a leader say "lets engage here" on vent and so their game knowledge can benefit the team by giving you good engagements or helping you see something you may have missed, etcetc so you can acquire objectives and advantages here and there to help you win. In solo q with randoms that's not so easily the case if you can't lead them and tell them what to do, or they might not trust you and thus won't follow you.

edit: rofl trollolol I'm silver without even playing ranked for like 6 months. Oh god I need this to download so I can see this with my own eyes and laugh.

Well at least I can actually say I do deserve it since I've actually gotten to 1575. But dayum. A month of smurfing for nothing.

Hotshot now calculating how much he can troll high elo and keep Plat with the new rating changes.

I wonder how many people at the top are thinking the same thing and these last two weeks become real terror time?
