In normal games i have 50 wins above losses, BUT THATS NOT THE POINT :>

In ranked games im 3-0 and 1298 ELO that's not bad in my opinion :>

People call me noob, and such, but i don't get how i'm noob if i won those games fair and square QQ

Would you guys call a guy 3-0 in ranked, unwilling to play again to keep his ELO noob?

Once i master Ryze, or another champ i'll start playing ranked :>


He may be dead but he's still OP

I think the general consensus is that you need at least 50 ranked games under your belt before your ELO is a good indicator of what your skill level is. I've played like 11 ranked solo q games and am at exactly 1400 ELO but I would not hesitate to consider myself a noob-like or scrub-like, especially when I play poorly. I've long since stopped trying ranked as I just don't like the super try-hard or super troll-hard mentality that's so rampant in Ranked games, and only play normal games for fun.

Another story for you. When I just started playing ranked I met some guy who had higher ELO than I did (1300+ compared to my 1200+). I checked in on him some time later (after I had given up on ranked) and he had accumulated 100 more ranked games and dropped to less than 1100 ELO.
Moral of the story: Early success in ranked means nothing.

So my answer is yes. You're a noob. Especially since 1298 ELO isn't that good at all.

I don't like the term noob as it implies you're just a new player, not necessarily a bad player.

But uh, I wouldn't suggest really "maining" a champion when you play ranked, always play what the team needs.

@ drate, I have met people who have won over 900 normal games and 100 ranked games and still fail completely. Even when I took the time to look at their match history they still sucked. Some people are just bad but addicted. Let them have their fun. (Recent example is a 0/8/1 renekton with 981 normal game wins that I faced)

About the topic, I feel that being a noob means that you are consistantly bad at a game and have been playing it for quite a long time. People have good days and bad days and sometimes things are not their fault but still if you are trully good then it will defenitly show. A 1298 ELO is not bad, but it is not excellent. So I have come to the conclusion that you are better then the average scrub but no one should be throwing out the word noob so quick.

It's best to ignore other players' opinions of you.

Keep playing, focus on winning, listen to helpful advice not whiney insults.

How much rating do you lose from queue dodging?
Back when I first started ranked, I queue dodged twice for one reason or another. IT seemed to drop my rating considerably.

Ugh, hey.

I've been playing League of Legends for about 2-3 weeks now, after coming from HoN, and I found it easy to grasp and master champions. I'm only level 20 for now, but I really don't think that you should try to focus on one champ, of course having a main is a different story, but you never know if your champion you perfected will be banned. But, to get on topic.. normal games really mean nothing, it's usually random people who you have no communication with other than typing and pinging. You should probably find a solid 5 and begin practice before judging off of random solo's.

I've been told 100-150 games to get a ranked ELO that is close to your true ELO.
