This. There are games you couldn't win even as a challenger tier player, but those are few and far between. Matchmaking doesn't discriminate, if you've been there for 20+ non-streaky games, generally you're just as a bad as everybody else

The thing I'm noticing the most is that Sejuani is now not rewarded for horribly missing her ult. By far the most annoying thing of old Sej. Her new Q looks responsive and like an actual dash now.

I played coward yi before and went 0-0-0. Damn feeding teammates with all the team's deaths, yo.

edit: I'm pretty sure my score is indicative of how good I am at this game and how bad everyone else is.

Sejuani's (old) ult being so forgiving was why they felt they couldn't add more power to other parts of her kit.

And dat flash instead of clicking thresh's lantern, lol.

If you guys were wondering about the gold exploit that allowed people to get a BF sword at level 1, someone posted the details (just as Riot is getting the hotfix out):

http://na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=3382311

Basically you could send a packet that "sold your runes" and gave you 2100g for them. You didn't actually lose the runes (but you lost the stats).

Obligatory "runes are coded as minions" joke goes here (or more accurately, "runes are coded as items")

say you go down -50 wins(cause -100 is ****ing extreme,thats ****ing 1000 elo at 10 elo per loss) in over the course of 2 months,which can happen because of 2 main reasons,
1.u stop tryharding
playing drunk,playing "fun" champs,basically not giving ur 100%
2.u got lucky and got carried to an elo u dont belong

if the cause of ur drop was #2 than kindly drop down to ur "true" elo
if the cause of ur drop was #1 than it shouldn't take u as long to go back up,since ur 500 elo below ur "true" elo u should be able to easily maintain 80 to 90 % winrate till u close in on ur "true" elo

so his point is not valid,its just an excuse for being bad

also if ur talking about a new player that just started ranked whos "true" elo is below 1200 and dropped to somewhere below 1200,and is struggling to break out of that elo......GUESS WHAT
ITS HARD CUZ UR "TRUE ELO" IS LOW
its not because of elo hell
its not because of the brazillians
its not because of ur teammates
its because ur close to or at ur "true" elo
stop blaming stuff beyond ur control
if u can't accept the fact ur bad,u just make it a million times harder for urself to get any better

From the thread I posted in January 2011

btw I'm 1800+ again hooray

Eh... 2100 gold is a lot. Definitely worth more than what you get from runes. Was a rune page ever worth 2100 gold in stats?
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

Yeah that post really rings true to home. When I was a 1400 shitter and started trying hard to gain elo, I would track my progress with the LoLking ELO chart. I had a trend (and still do) that when I climb, I go hit a peak of say, 1600, drop down maybe to 1500, then just start winning again to 1650, and the cycle would go on and on for a while, trying to improve myself and playing a lot of this game. Getting good teammates can help you hit a peak, sure, but you won't stay there unless you know how to. That's why even when I see shitters like fabbbyyy, you have to wonder, how does he stay in this elo? He's doing something right, you just don't know what.

tl;dr if you think you can be high(er) elo, prove it.
