ELO

[quote=AmericanLoLer]So after reading a ton of people talk about something called ELO, I was wondering where they went to figure out their ELO. I don't understand what they do to calculate. Any help would be nice.[/quote]

[quote=B-Wong]Play a couple ranked games Bam, you can see ELO.[/quote]

[quote=Adonikam]10 ranked games* and you can only see elo in Ranks, normals don't have them anymore (well they do, but you can't see them)[/quote]

[quote=AmericanLoLer]Ah, thank you very much. I was getting worried about having to calculate it on my own.[/quote]

[quote=Mowen]From my FAQ, if you are a new player or even new to ranked games it might be helpful: A. Your ELO is essentially your rating. It is determined by your win/loss ratio and how many games you have played. In normal queue your elo is hidden from yourself and others, but the matchmaking system still uses it to decide your opponents. In ranked games your elo is there for the world to see. For more info on ELO / how the matchmaking system works, look here: http://www.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=12029[/quote]

[quote=Searz]It's not determined by your wins/losses (please correct me if you have the facts tho). You gain elo depending on the combined elo of your team and the enemy team. If your team has higher you gain less/lose more and if it's lower you win more elo/lose less.[/quote]

[quote=Searz]Not above 1500 yet I see :p ^_^[/quote]

[quote=AmericanLoLer]What would you say is the average ELO for ranked players?[/quote]

[quote=Jebus McAzn]Average is "technically" 1200, but you really want a range. The vast majority of ranked players are in the 1000-1400 ELO range, the range most commonly referred to as "ELO Hell".[/quote]
