[quote=utopus]That's so lame! So if you're playing a largely bloodless game, then it's nye impossible to get an S, even if you've got high kill participation for the few kills your team has made. I wonder exactly what grades the pros get for their kdas during playoffs[/quote]

[quote=The_Nameless_Bard][quote=Vynertje]It's like all that counts is how much kills you have, wtf guys I play support only[/quote]IKR? My only S+ on support was a game where I went 8-2-20 as support [[Lulu]] with 64% kill participation.[/quote]

[quote=Ekki][quote=Vynertje]It's like all that counts is how much kills you have, wtf guys I play support only[/quote]AFAIK it takes in account KDA, farm and also some "positioning" info that Riot started to use some time ago (probably to predict which role you were playing, but maybe it measures something else). Also it's a relative score when compared to the rest of the games on that champion. In the end it's just another arbitrary grading system that can be exploited. Hence it's better to not show the algorithm to avoid having people doing suboptimal stuff only for a better grade.[/quote]

[quote=The_Nameless_Bard]I feel like your farm should generally not be taken into account when you're playing support given that supports, especially ranged ones, don't farm.[/quote]

[quote=Latest Legend]Hell, when I play Blitzcrank I even grab minions for the gold. Supports gotta live too![/quote]

[quote=Ekki][quote=The_Nameless_Bard]I feel like your farm should generally not be taken into account when you're playing support given that supports, especially ranged ones, don't farm.[/quote]As it's a relative score and there are tools to somewhat predict that you're the support, farm may be measured in comparison to other players playing the same champion as a support. This probably means the math gets a bit wonky when you get very low or very high cs scores, even if those are within a "played well" framework (e.g. ending with less than 5 farm on [[janna]] because your adc farmed perfectly throughout a short game). This is all my feeling on the system though. Riot might have tought of this and my low scores might be for other reasons.[/quote]

[quote=Ixtellor]Went 2-12 in Ranked --- dropped 2 ranks. Never playing Mundo again --- too weak, everyone bullies him. The Udyr nerfs were real, the new trick build only works against squishy teams. Turns out I'm only good when I jungle. I was looking through all my games since I hit Gold 1 and my top lane win % is horrific. Going to learn Graves and tank Fizz, practice in normals for a while then return to ranked.[/quote]

[quote=Vynertje]@Grading stuff Well idk, it feels bullshit to me. Only games in which I managed to get an S+ as support out of like 30 games played are the games where I got 7 kills as support, like this one: [img]http://i.imgur.com/ZgdA0Zt.png[/img] Also, having to carry your team as support can be quite tough lmao. So much random shit is happening at this Elo I can't even keep track.[/quote]

[quote=Janitsu]I'm glad the [[sivir]] agrees with you :)![/quote]
