My understanding is the closer to the top of a division you get the harder it starts to cap you.

What were your LP totals when this happened shake?

If you're in Division 1 of your league (Gold 1, Plat 1, Diamond 1, etc...) then the system will throttle your LP gains as you approach 100 points. It's done so that the system can gain confidence regarding your MMR. The system wants to make sure that you "belong" in the next tier since you can't get demoted. However, this issue is kinda screwed up for people in Diamond 1 since you can never be promoted to Challenger until someone drops out of Challenger tier.

I was at 0 in Diamond Div 2 lmao.
I've been reading a lot of people in post game chat saying they were getting +4 in random games suddenly as well, strange.

In any event, you know they did a great job designing a system to hide Elo when no one even understands how it works in practice, even if the theory is simple enough.

They made me start playing on my smurf again. If I end up buying some RP on it then their system is successful.

It just came to me after watching LCS today for whatever reason, would 14/0/16 be any good on trist? Since her laning relies on W levels to get kills/apply pressure. It also minimizes her weak midgame by gaining your range quicker. I can see counterpoints such as extreme squishiness if you fail to burst them down etc. but what do you guys think?

Dyrus picks him all the time on his stream and at LCS. Apparently Maknoon (i think, could be another korean toplaner) said Renekton is an amazing top.

Renek and Singed every game real fun.

I think the diamond 1 issue would be solved by remove the LP cap on Diamond division 1. So they can go past the 100 cap like challenger.

Also allow all those in diamond 1 (or just diamond) and above to see the other leagues.

That way, its less redundant to be sitting at 100 LP in diamond 1 and creates the competition (again) for promotion into challenger

I think patoy might just be the best player in NA, lol. Thoughts?
At the very least, he belongs with jacky/double/voy/etc.
Delete your post underage b&. You're incestuous for you're onee-chan so you're clearly not a bad guy, but others might not agree

Yeah, it was actually Gambit in IEM...

Najin just copied Gambit, and won OGN w/ it.

Maybe best support in NA right now, but that's not saying much. NA really lacking in support talent.

What we can observe is pretty limited to the role..... I mean, he's done his job as support marvelously, but I haven't seen anything outside of what should be done of a support that suggests he's one of the best in NA.

Wait, so you're saying because you've never seen him play other roles that he can't be good? I'm afraid you cannot reach a higher level than perfection, and he's been playing perfectly every game. He might not be as good as Madlife, but his dominance over his competition is the same (NA competition is considerably lower, though)
