Most likely the level off opponents he lost to is different from yours.
Plus while your starting divisions may have been the same your MMR could have been wildly different.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

Lol. +2000. Rofl.

Soft reset is sort of silly tbh. Should just make it so first 10 games are worth a ton of elo difference.


+2000 would be funny. Say, you're at 1000 before the reset kicks in, then you end up at 1500. Sweet!

Oh yeah, new season ladder challenge: only play a single champ the entire season. Just gotta decide which one, ideally I want to be able to cover as many roles as possible IE Jungle/Top/Mid or Top/Mid/Support etc. with a single champ.

I found this series of posts far too funny.

Just out of curiosity, what's everyone's lowest Elo of all time and highest?

lowest: 600
highest: 1300
(all season 2)
I have LeBlanc to thank for carrying me out of 600.

idk man, just seems really off to me. Why would our mmr be that much different in the same division that i would be placed almost a whole tier below him?

Plat I terror clamping in effect maybe, his Elo was something like Diamond IV while your was legit Plat I (or even a bit lower), then he proceeds to win his first 4 as you lose your first 5, and baam, big discrepancy.

Lowest Elo was something like 1100, and I barely missed 1500 in s2 (peak 1492 or something silly like that), no idea what Plat III was in s3 (I didn't reach it because loss streak destroyed my Elo after I missed my promo, but before that I was match with Plat IIIs in Plat V).
Cant take LMS hipsters serious.

Ok the soft reset is actually completely messed up lol. Plat 1 goes 4-6 gets plat 5. Saintvicious goes 4-6 and from diamond 1 to gold 1. The diamond 1 i played in my last placement match goes 5-5 and ends up gold 2. So does a plat 1 really have a higher mmr than saintvicious and another diamond 1 player?

it doesn't really matter much, since everyone will just climb out right away, but it is slightly annoying and highly amusing lol.

Is it true that dodging in placements doesn't count as a loss? Could be a god send if the amount of random lobby trolls is anything like it was last year.

That wouldbe fun.

On the other hand, it would also be fun to dodge 10 times and play in bronze 5.

Order of wins/losses matter more then amount, first games count for more.

Personally I'd just wait for 2 weeks to a month. It seems that everyone's MMR got greatly reduced so even the top challenger players now have only plat MMR. There is no point in playing because youe MMR gain will be minimal.

If you like lopsided games with grossly mismatched opponents, you can play normal draft.

even if you didn't enjoy the game at all and your only concern was maximizing MMR gain, i don't see how not playing for a month would be anything but counterproductive.
