Season 6 Placement Matches

[quote=GrandmasterD][quote=utopus][quote=Toxicarbon]They want every one to have a soft reset and have to prove they're that good. The point of the higher tiers are to show you're top players of that season.[/quote] Do lcs players really need to prove that they can dumpster plat 1 players though?[/quote] Those aren't Plat I players.[/quote]

[quote=utopus]Exactly. Hence why I don't think that there needs to be an upper bound on the rank at which you can place[/quote]

[quote=Embracing]i think they should just reset the mmr even harder and just remove the "cap" at which you get placed in. It makes no sense to really fuck up mmr and league division placements when the goal was supposed to get you in the division your corresponding mmr matched with. though i get "over time it'll balance out" the capping thing really makes 0 sense to me[/quote]

[quote=JakeParkbench]Went from silver 4 to bronze 2. Climb is quick though. I feel bad for anyone in high bronze last season and managed to keep there rank. Even in bronze 2 I'm playing previous gold 5 players. The skill match ups right now are complete hell for some peopled and just get destroyed in lane. At least after a few matches my mmr sorted out and games are a little more even.[/quote]

[quote=GrandmasterD]I think Bronze, Silver, and Gold should get a hard reset, as if you've made a new account. Plat and higher should get a soft reset. To me, it makes no sense to put everyone who was Bronze back into Bronze; Bronze has to be “earned”. Same thing with Silver; most people just got placed there and never got higher. Gold is a nice achievement, but reaching it from a new account isn't tough (10-0 gives you Gold V). Plat and higher shouldn't have to prove anything, also, this way you'd avoid the ex-Plat, Diamond, Master, and Challenger to end up with the bulk.[/quote]

[quote=utopus]Giving lower ELO players a reset would probably bode well for riot. Additionally, it'd go along with some of the recent implementations that riot's been pushing for (e.g. promo helper applying in below-plat)[/quote]

How's that for a fresh start?[/quote]

[quote=TheSilverDust]I wanted to cry at my games at ranked now... Please return dynamic queue, Riot. EDIT: It returned... in Normal Draft.[/quote]

[quote=Toxicarbon]Well Utopus, it's not necessarily that. It's actually Challenger + Master + Diamond 1,2,3,4,5 all in Plat 5-1. Most the plat players are gold now. All they did was demote everyone. It's not like us diamond players are playing against noobs. I'm P4 currently playing against all diamonds.[/quote]
