The challenges are grandmasters that are so good they are able to challenge each other for the prestige of best player, aka rank 1. Hence they are challengers for the top spot. Obviously someone that is low tier challenger coming in and out the tier will never be top dog, but it does signal that he's close. While if you're grandmaster you're just completely adept at what you do, but you're not a challenger just yet. Makes complete sense for me in this way. Would perhaps make even more sense if they only let the top 10 in ladder be challenger though. | ||

@Gahlo He's constantly being challenged, so obviously the challenged is still a challenger. There should be a reward though for people being on top for x consecutive days or the guy who was rank 1 the longest. | ||

Not the highest level of play by any means, but it seems like a fun event and most teams have a few challenger level players so the level of play is at least well above my own. Since it’s a twitch event most rounds are being streamed by all 10 players which is a pretty cool angle to be able to watch from. I followed it. It's a fun event. Riot's trying to build up hype for Clash, I guess. Hopefully it doesnt go boom like last year haha | ||

Yeah, I got heartbroken since one of my favorite streamers - Keegun lost without playing because one of his teammates Annie bot did not wake up for the event. Anyway, since Dekar (another favorite of mine) is not in the tourney, and xBlotter lost as well, I hold thumbs for foggedftw2 now  | ||

When your business model is to change something all the time, just for the sake of changing things and you run out of idiotic ideas and come up with something spectacularly retarded | ||

Last summer, we started testing positional matchmaking in Normal Draft to make sure it was ready for prime time This may be the reason why I found the games so lopsided, implying this method sucks. When a D3 player offroles, do you think he is comparable to a Plat 1 player? Is this 'gap' considered the same as a P3 vs G1? Honestly don't see this improving game play. | ||

i dont agree with the idea that you can call yourself a diamond player because youre good at your one trick but be gold for every other lane/champion. what that should actually mean is youre a gold player who happens to be particularly good at one champion. | ||
