If there IS an elo hell, it's 1200, but 1200 is hard carry-able, so i don't consider it a true elo hell.

If people solo queue and play enough games, they will settle on their true elo.

This elo can fluctuate up to 50 in either direction because of streaks, but it will eventually land very near, and settle to your "true elo".

This is the whole concept of the Elo system. Play enough, and your skill is measured through your results.


The problem with the Elo system is that LoL =/= Chess, and winning isn't 100% of how effective a player is as an individual.

With this in mind, you have to tell yourself that Elo does NOT mean skill, high Elo means that you can effectively win games, no matter the circumstances.

Exactly, I've noticed that being in the upper 1200's now that one game I'll get a game full of smart players , the next I'll have a team that is obviously on the decline, its the factor of can you pull our a miracle and carry this or lead them to victory is the question. I feel that most High Elo players can find a way to do this. Hell all it takes to win a game is to win one massive teamfight and push but a lot of players are down and out ( stop farming , stop getting dragon ) if there down by a few kills early game.

Thanks for all your answers! I guess i just can conclude that ELO is just about luck (certainly in this ELO). Because just like im unlucky going from 1486 ELO to 1325 in 2-3 days, there's also really bad players who start playing ranked just when they hit 30, get good teammates in a few games, and then end up playing with me in the 1300-1500's...

Thanks for all your advice, guess i'll have to wait for season 2!

This is a problem that is uncurable right now. Riot needs to give us a transfer now -.- I'm not doing any ranked before I get out of this ghetto.
I'm back!
