Essentially, this tier is placed above diamond 1 and the top 200 players every 24 hours are given the Challenger status.

Do you think it really is necessary? I mean, they want to eliminate "diamond players not putting in any work", but when you're in challenger you need a considerable amount of work already, and I don't really see people "just waiting for the end of the season".

Your opinions?

Sooo.... no more Gatekeeper? :(

Well there were some problems with the current Challenger tier (immunity & people being kicked out even when they won a game). This is their way of fixing it. I do predict that it will cause a new problem. That's just the natural order of things.
(Check out my guides, they're linked to their pictures!)

If I helped you in any way, that +REP is always nice^^

This is cool, but I wonder how the community will react to it.

There's bound to be some new slang incoming.

They should've delayed the Master Tier one season and released the Senpai Tier first

The Senpai Tier.

FalseoGod's paradise.

Master Tier is the new challenger except that you can't get kicked out(Just like any other tier/division) while challenger is some kind of temporary "reward" for the top 200 players and teams that gets removed after 24 hours.


I don't like the idea of the 24 hour refresh, players can just replace others just because they have more time committing to playing the game.

I think that for the top 200 players on league of legends, time committed should weigh into a players ranking at least a little bit. It seems only fair that a top 200 player who plays regularly and plays well should be rewarded more than a top 200 player who plays well, and plays less frequently
