top 50 at any given point, but the lower ranks are quite volatile so there are a couple hundred people in each region who have a realistic shot at making it in. d1 50+lp (room for argument on what the lp cutoff is, but you get the point) players could realistically claim to be good enough to make it into challenger, although keeping that rating a meaningful duration past demotion immunity is another matter

the start of a new season introduces even more volatility and further expands the range of players that could make challenger - i believe the first challenger in s3 was babyzeus, who ended the season at d1 32 lp

forgot to mention that challenger is being expanded to (i believe) 200 spots as well

I'm pretty sure they reverted that change. Like 99% certain.

Probably just shows highest achieved in normals regardless of format since no ranking and all.


Edit. Yeah, borders are unique in ranked.

Thanks for the correction.

Interesting...

For those who can't reddit atm.

+ Show Spoiler +
The loading screen border trim you earn will display when playing in the ranked game type you earned it in. For other queues: In 5s normal or bot games the highest of your ranked 5s or solo / duo queue will be displayed. In 3s normal and bot games, borders earned from your ranked 3s will be displayed. For ARAM , custom, and dominion games, the highest of any ranked queue will be displayed. So, for example, if you earn Diamond in solo queue and Silver in Twisted Treeline, you will display a Diamond loading border in solo queue and unranked games, but you will display a Silver border in ranked Twisted Treeline. Regardless of game mode the border trim will only be displayed to your allies, as we still want to be very careful about influencing perceptions around the fairness of the matchup before the game begins.

Normals show the highest rank, regardless of Q. Only Ranked Qs are unique.

I think for normals, you show highest border, for ranked play, it is queue specific.

For example, I'd be Diamond in SoloQ/customs/normals, but in ranked 3's and 5's I'd be naked.

EDIT: Zedded.

Wait my buddy only has diamond in 3s and plat in solo q and plat in 5s, but has diamond border thing in his profile and in normal 5v5s...how does this work?



You got the reward from the system where your had your highest rating. So if you had challenger in 3's but bronze in solo queue, you'´d still get challenger border.

You mean challenger border on the profile or loadin screen for all ques or both, because i thought the border for loadin was que specific

No Queue specificity. Challenger in 3v3 is just as valuable as on 5v5 SR, you heard it here.

EDIT: Z'ed again.


I thought riot said somewhere that the rewards for loadscreen would be queue specific?

Or am I wrong on that?

You're wrong

Only partially, depending on interpretation

We've got a couple of Diamond 1s, so there's a chance Dusty may make it or someone. Might be difficult on NA as WildTurtle rules the Challenger Tier with an iron fist and his many smurfs. :O

Also not sure about Scip.

There's also going to be a rework of the challenger tier S4 because of the problems we've run into late minute in S3. No one's sure on the details of that yet.

Dude we should swap Tolkien accounts so there are 2 NA TLers in Challenger ! :p

But then the slanderous accusations of me being elo boosted would be true, and I truly will be confirmed Silver V. :<

Can anyone confirm or deny S2 borders carrying over?
I wonder if my gold borders in 3s/5s will stick around or not because I heard conflicting things before patch.
