JDG might be the only team in the entire world who unironically might be better at playing from behind than playing with a lead lmao
idk if any such team can even logically exist but if it does its JDG
According to Games of Legends, JDG has a 100% win rate when ahead at gold at 15 minutes across the entire summer split.
Heimer is giga cracked into Sylas, I want to see someone pull it out mid. Showmaker pls make it happen
How is winrate not a criteria?
This might be a really sh*tty analogy so apologies: if I'm looking for people who have 5 apples to match with other people who have 5 apples, it's not really relevant if you started with 3 apples and found 2 more to play the game or if you had 20 and lost 15, I only care about how many apples you have right now.
However, after that game is done and we see the result, it can be relevant to know how many apples you've had in the past to inform skill updates. If you had 20 apples but are now down to 5, we were probably pretty off and shouldn't have as much confidence that you have the right number of apples. If you have a history of being around 3-5 apples, we can be more confident that you're in the right orchard.
Just wondering. If aiming as close to 50% is fact isn't that unfair? I mean if I performance way better than average of players in my division system won't choose worse team to make it the closest to 50%?
I mean. If sentence above is right that means playing league is actually pure coin flip. The more you're better the more you're playing with worse and opposite.
I still believe that if you're performing well your mmr should increase much faster to pump you up even faster (which solves problem with smurfs).
Idea where smurfes gain low ammount of LP is actually sick cause they break even more games than it usually would take.
What would be the alternative? We give you, personally, matches where we statistically know you are meaningfully more or less likely to win than the 5 other humans you're playing against?
We match you with others based on your current MMR. If you are actually a better player than what your current MMR is, you will start winning more than 50% of games, and your MMR will increase. As your MMR increases, the players you play with and against start to match you in skill level. As your MMR starts to align with your true skill, you will win around 50% of matches because the primary factor we're matchmaking you for = reality. If you want to continue climbing after your MMR matches your actual skill, you need to improve as a player or find other advantages. Plenty of ways to do this - pick better champions, get better at warding, CSing, work on being a better teammate.
At a high level agree that performance influencing MMR is typically a good thing and there are i...

I like how’s he’s so OG he doesn’t follow the Riot_____ convention
By the time I made the name, someone had already stolen RiotPhreak.
The downsides of being slightly e-famous before making accounts everywhere.
-Says the system aim for 50%
-Everyone ignores the deep implications of such a algorithm.
Honestly pretty easy money, don't even need to obscure terms for any possible jury people will just eat anything they.
what deep implications
Anybody who plays the game knows this isn't true and you are lying. Bronzies get matched with golds all the time, specifically hardstuck golds with 2k games negative winrate per season, solely to make the bronze player lose because the system sees they're winning too often and climbing too fast. You can replicate this indefinitely with different accounts. Clear indicator that the mm algorithm is rigged. Unless you can prove it through the data you stored, I think you are trying to deceive and defraud children.
you caught me, I love to deceive and defraud children on the internet
9-9 isn't bad for a region right?
I remember also thinking that Master Yi was the most powerful champion in the game because he could heal and no other champion could do that (so I thought). I also bought 6 Dorans Shields in my first game as Renekton because my friends didnt explain to me how items worked. I also remember being confused that when I bought items they didnt visually show up on my character. Good memories
winrate is not a criteria. if an iron player gets better or a silver player gets worse and they both end up in bronze, they'll be matchmade with other bronze players.
No, game's are intentionally unfair.
They don't put you in a game where you theoretically have a 50% chance to win based on ranks, otherwise you reach true MMR too quickly and stop playing. They give you 5 games where you have a 55% chance of winning, then 5 games where you have a 45% chance of winning and you climb by consistently outperforming in games you're supposed to lose. Makes the climb significantly harder than if you were consistently placed in fairly matched games. Pretty disgusting practice, but it keeps players playing.
Enjoy the grind.
no we don't do that. aim for as close to 50% every time.
so are we getting every pass event after worlds ~10,000XP from missions? because not every event includes 3 skinlines like this worlds event
Yep! We'll adjust the amount up if an event is ever shorter than normal (as in, we'll make your progress through the pass faster for an event through mission XP to make up for a reduction in time to play).
so if i put a report on your hackerone program you will be the one to see it
Not necessarily
That's pretty cool, does Riot have any security positions open right now? I also work in security so I'm curious what they have.

how can u miss this classic
I didn't, I just didn't want to post that from a red named account ^^"
So I like the idea that the region that wins, and the 2nd strongest region in recent events have 4 seeds. EU have 3 seeds as the historic "3rd best region". If riot actually was to remove a seed from NA, I don't think it would be fair to give it to EU, having 3 major regions at 4 seeds, and then NA, VCS and PCS stuck at 2.
Personally, I would love to give the LJL a 2nd seed. I don't watch that region myself, so Idk if it's just DFM bullying a bunch of worse teams, but I think that's besides the point. LJL has been one of the minor regions finding more and more sucess in recent years, and if they got a 2nd seed into playins you could argue that will also help improve the region since it won't just be DFM getting all the international experience, with no one else to challenge them domestically.
Something along the lines of the UEFA coefficient?
You've missed nothing of importance. That era was basically peak LCS.
He missed the 2018 C9 semis run
