Now imagine you work out for 2 years, tan everyday for 6 months and work on your douchebag talk every day and when you finally show up to the party you see all these mediocre looking, NORMAL dudes at the party and you find out the host lets these kids in now because he felt like there wasn't enough people there. I was sitting on my Platinum for like a month waiting for Season 1 to end. And then Riot does this. Just feels like a big middle finger. Gtr is just happy he might get silver for once. Don't mind him. I feel bad. I accepted the fact that I won't get plat and just stayed at 2k. Now I'm platinum? Real dumb. | ||

Basically jiji will go from 2239->1490. Every poor sap with 1 Elo will go from 1->906, everyone with 1200 will stay the same, and everyone else will land somewhere in between. Time to avoid the first month of season 2. Horribly unbalanced games, tons of rage, and tons of QQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQ. | ||

Ofc this doesn't in high ELO because of the basic set up including a healer/support but its not that popular in lower ELO. Udyr need to remain in jungle just like WW, their pre nerf lane ability was kinda good bordering OP. I guess it's kinda balance now. I like the support change, i hate the fact that you can farm freely w/o worrying about harassment because the support can just heal you. Support will become more aggressive and we can expect more early game fights. What? You can not 1v1 anyone at level one. At best assuming you take q first(Something smart xin's don't do) you will not be able to knock someone up unless they fight, they walk away and the knockup will more then likely give you 2 hits forcing you to flash for a 3rd hit causing them to flash. This is assuming they just don't exhaust you and walk away with no problems what so ever. You take E, you charge they flash/ you flash.. and.. right click. Now once Xin hits 2(I prefer 3) yes he can start playing far more aggressive and can handle a number of champions if done properly but again he's still not going to be a serious threat except as a clean up/picking off solo's and people caught out in the open. I am just finding it really silly they thought this a good idea. I dislike the idea of balancing a game at the low end of the spectrum. At least with the jax nerf it made sense because his leap/bonk can put a hurt on but I am not seeing what this will do except make Xin Jungle more ideal because of red buff. | ||

They better reset accelerated elo gains. Otherwise it's going to take stupidly long for everyone's Elo to spread out again. | ||

Real dumb. I got myself to 1891 to get gold, played a game last weekend to not get screwed by decay which placed me at 1903, it was like my first game in months with Jarman too. Now this happen and im guaranteed plat rather than gold. | ||

Just feels like a big middle finger. yeah, but now imagine that there are 5 MILLION KIDS waiting outside of the door to the party still have some perspective please no one thinks you're a worse player honestly it makes sense riot wants their skins to be viewed because they work hard on them. give the jarman skin to like 2000 more players = good for them IMO On August 25 2011 06:38 HazMat wrote: Gtr is just happy he might get silver for once.

Next decay is 25 points. If you play a game right now, you'll realistically only drop 13 or 14 points if you lose and still be gold. | ||

unless you only have like 10 games played, even a loss wouldn't put you under, so just play one | ||
