positional ranked is getting shit on in korea atm.
people figured out that you can swap lanes early enough in the game to protect your lp in your main lane. if you start losing early as a mid you literally just run it down bot and start taking cs etc and you dont lose points in mid lane.
also mmr gain is bugged so that some guys get retarded gains but next to no losses and so there are players in masters who have 40% winrates.

Yup, a bunch of issues. Riot's said they've fixed em for next patch but cmon man, why the fuck is this coming out when season starts? You just had a two month period to test this shit out and not affect ranked. How the fuck did they not see that coming too? Actual incompetency.

I find its a typical situation in organizations like this. Doesn't anyone remember google+? Riot is a company that systematically has not hired (or has fired) "negative nancies".

God, I'm so happy I'm on EUW. I also read a story on reddit yesterday that a guy got support, but because his ADC never connected, the system thought he was playing Marksmen and lost points for that position instead. Like I said previously, there are so many exceptions to the system that Riot has to account for, that it will basically be impossible or excessively time consuming/waste of time and resources to get it to work.

I've also heard different high elo streamers complain that the early season this year is way more lopsided that ever before, teams of D1/2 players getting matched against 3 top 50 S8 Challenger players, but they're still losing/gaining 15-20 LP despite it being an obvious stomp.

Has anyone been playing the new aurf mode? I’m found it surprisingly not fun. Urf obviously isn’t balanced, but you could at least pick strong champs. With aurf if you get a squishy target and they have Assassins you just die instantly over and over because their engage is always up unless you play so far back as to make it very hard to contribute damage in a fight. I like ARAM and I like urf, but I think the combination is the worst of both worlds rather than the best.

Never liked URF let alone a mode where I could get a trash champ and just get fkd for an entire game, no thanks.

In other news, Rek'sai ult bugged as shit on this patch. Makes it so sad to play

Constantly getting given full cd if u press r as someone is exiting vision. Lost two games off it already.

I think nidalee is also bugged, she's not utter garbage when played by players who can't play her? :thinking:

Tried the mode out, it's OK but gets boring fast. Every game is pretty much a slaughter, either because somechamps are uber tier strong while others are useless, or because people playing for fun while others try hard.

Nidalee isn't even that strong, you should experience full AD trist as a melee champion, she kills people in her ult animation.

Judging from my games and what I see on streams, I have the feeling that since S9 started, bot lane is again the one who solo decides games. The difference from before is that now, the one which does not feed wins
