No I am not saying the games are easier that doesn't matter.....The time where people's mmr got reduced is over so you can potentially play vs higher mmr players which in turn lets you get placed higher.\

I have some friends that went 10/0 last season(were high d1 prior) and still got placed plat 1 while I went in plat 1 with don't even remember what score.Was something shitty like 4/6 or something.No clue about this season but doubt it would be any different.

Yeah they do this every year.

Highest you can get at the start of the season is plat 1. Obvs after 5 months they remove a cap like that.

possible noob question, someone linked me a ranked game history, the xx went x/x/x on summoers rift beta etc. It shows the name of everyone in the group, is this new or is this how it has always worked for ranked? What I mean is when you use the web link to look at a normal game history, all of the players names other than your own are hidden.

Probably the same way they always did.

I'm from Berlin but kinda busy at the moment because exam season is starting the the TU and I didn't really want to go to check it out until the playoffs. Is the studio in Babelsberg or Adlershof?

Hey that's funny, I'm also a student of the TU and got the same problem. I think I might wait a little until I go there too. The studio is in Adlershof.

Probably wouldn't change anything at all. You'd still play with 9 other people who have roughly equivalent MMR in either case, and your own MMR doesn't change. But the MMR now means much less compared to what it'd be worth in 5 months, or heck even 2 weeks from now simply because of the reset as people play some games to get back to where they were.


As an interesting aside, if you're bronze/low silver, and waited 2 weeks, you'd probably get stomped a bunch of games in a row because your MMR went up on reset.

As far as I know 1200 ELO is 0 points silver 5, so only bronze has the "MMR goes up, get stomped in placements" problem.

Could be wrongo tho.

Assuming it's the guessed (elo + 1200)/2 again.

Got placed in Bronze 2 after going 2-8. I was 1-9 I think. The last game, I won as hybrid Kennen in a 4v5 with the most damage in the game, after beating a Pantheon in lane. Morg DC'd late though, after we'd already taken 4 drags. Just gonna play some more on hit kennen and then AD kennen and see how it goes :D

This is a slight drop from Silver 1/Gold 5 in previous seasons.

I'm starting to feel like hybrid Kennen (gunblade->nashors->rageblade with a zhonyas thrown in there) is better than ap Kennen. There are a lot of matchups where I don't do enough damage as AP Kennen to the tanky bruisers and tanks of top lane, and while the sustain with hextech revolver is nice, it's not enough.
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.

Why not do Top/Jungle/Mid? I don't think he makes any sense as support since he doesn't provide enough utility without gold. None of the starting support items are that great on him either. At least in the jungle there's skirmisher's to synergize with his Q.

Playing 100 games on a champ you haven't played a lot sounds fun. I might give that a run as well. Nautilus is more fun than GP. Especially for spamming 100 games. Cmon...

Yeah you can totally play GP mid.

I mean it's not great, but it's better than GP Support that's for sure.

Nothing wrong with gp support, but definitely niche.

The nightmare placements continue. Just had an ezreal start feeding a won game on purpose because "it was taking too long"
Excuse me hun, but what is your name? Vivian? I woke up next to you naked and, uh, did we, um?
