I remember reading somewhere that gold is the top 2% of players, but I find that hard to believe considering that's only like 1520 for season 1 bronze 25%, 1250 silver 10%, 1400 gold 2%, 1519, was later corrected to 1520 plat 0.2%, 1899, was later corrected to 1900 true plat 2200 was like less than 100 players? can't remember how many zeroes but like 0.001% these stats haven't been released for season 2, but even so far there are many times more players in every bracket than there were last season. at the same point, there are many more players overall. it's hard to say if the rating edges will move up or down at the end of this season tbh | ||

given how elo seems to have inflated, if the cutoffs change, the rating edges will likely move up if at all. | ||

I don't think it happened when a single minion attacked me, but instead when several attacks hit me in a short time frame. Since some numbers seem to be added up ever since a recent patch, that could be the reason. Example: If you smite kill something, you only see 1 gold value over your character, which is the 10 gold from smite plus the gold value of the minion/monster. Similar things could happen for damage now, and somehow before passives are applied. Just a theory of course. That would change a lot though, especially for Poppy... In any case, Panth shield breaks from just melee/ranged minions. | ||

RIOT would be WRECKED by angry kids holy shit | ||

Same here, and I didn't dare ask which team it was until I saw a "dynamic xxx" on stream. On Panth's passive: I noticed the numbers too (kill minions with AoE, you'll only see a single number fro gold), tho mainly in obs mode. I had no idea it was more than a simple display thing. Amongst other changes, you can't click on an ally portrait to "select" them anymore while they're dead. A bit annoying when you want to know precisely where they died (see if they were overextended, or where the jungler jumped them, etc.) since you can't then click the selection box to center the screen on them. I noticed it's harder to click the portrait even when they're alive too. While I'm mentioning obs mode, I've seen casters open a little pop-up that gives a champ's characteristics, a bit like when you click your own portrait in single player. Anybody has an idea how to do it? I tried all buttons but didn't find it, so I guess it's a keyboard shortcut thing but I didn't find it in the help either. | ||

Did Riot mess up and apply this grouping of damage values for internal calculations (messes with balance and makes the game less predictable), or did they do it properly and only apply it for graphical display? | ||
