I'm imagining this happens every time someone new joins the team...

"Dude no it's just SUCH a pain in the ass. Wait until you're like 6 months in - you'll be stuffed up to the back of your teeth with your actual job, and you'll be like 'f**k podcasts!' like the rest of us."

tbh any recurring thing is hard. even Ask Riot is way harder than it looks; thank god u/bananaband1t is so good at keeping people answering.

I'm afraid this is most likely because You don't own the champion/champions. Notice that it says on the lower part "Offers include champion if unowned", so it adds the value of the champions in RP, in addition to the RP value of the skins.

Let's Take General Wukong's offer, for example:

The Skin normally is worth 750 RP; Wukong on the other hand is worth 880 RP.

For a total of 1630 RP. This amount is discounted by -70%, which leaves it at 489 RP.

IF you were to own Wukong beforehand, then the price would be 750 RP reduced to 30% of the original cost, which would be 225 Riot Points.

Note that this happens because usually you don't own the skin without owning the champion first. The only exception for this would be getting granted the skin due to certain circumstances, like Victorious Skins which are granted once the season ends, along with the champion if you don't own it.

TL;DR: Don't worry, Riot isn't scamming anyone on this case. Ju...

When I interviewed at Riot I was relatively new to League and I spent a good chunk of my interview explaining to a senior leader why taking teleport on Sona was the only correct way to play her

Thanks for your advice. I've been focusing more on trying to learn from my mistakes than get tilted. I'll try taking breaks after a loss and see if that helps me focus on the next game better :)

If you lose two in a row step away from ranked, maybe for the rest of the day. Probably the best possible advice.

Beyond that, it's:

*Focus on one role (and even one champ)

*Understand that no single game matters. You'll lose, you'll win -- keep your eye on the big picture

*Learn as much as you can about League. Most of low-Elo climbing is about situational awareness and game sense over mechanics. You can get to Gold just by making better decisions than the other team.

*Learn to trade. An ADC that knows how to effectively trade in Bronze/Silver won't be there long.

But, overall, stay posi and remember League is here for you to have fun. If it ever starts to stress you out, take a couple days off :)

In games where I feel close to tilting I often drag the chat window entirely off the screen. Muteall can help, as well.

How do you feel about your next game? Are you dreading a potential 14th loss, or has your descent merely removed the perception of importance surrounding any individual game and allowed you to ascend to a season-level perception, similar to how falling in a black hole allowed Carl's Jr. spokesman Matthew McConaughey to perceive a dimension beyond time and space?

Wrong. If Schalke wins ties are going to be broken by looking against the results a team had vs. the other teams with the tie.

If Misfits wins their game, there is going to be a tiebreaker game between S04 and ROC. (Thanks to u/Timbolt for the correction)

Tiebreaker if MSF loses their game:

Place Team Standings
5 H2K 3 - 1
6 Schalke 04 2 - 2
7 ROCCAT 1 - 3

Tiebreaker if MSF wins their game:

Place Team Standings
5 H2K 4 - 2
6 ROCCAT 3 - 3
6 Schalke 04 3 - 3
8 Misfits 2 - 4

The bottom scenario is correct, the top one would have S04 at 2-2

Correct, a tie at 8 wins between ROC, H2K and MSF means we apply "mini-standings" for those 3 teams where only their H2Hs count. That would result in

3-1 H2K

2-2 ROC

1-3 MSF

Therefore H2K would be 5th, ROC 6th.
