I was told the amount we are currently losing is a bug in the algorithm. Anyone believe that or have proof?

losses are going to cost more points than winning will give it makes sense to me specially if youre in a higher league

According to the OP you lose 3 times more points than you gain. This means you will need to win 75% of games just to rank up, at any level.

A bit harsh, no? Especially for players who start their climb.
I don't play LoL anymore.

Okay, so the reason that people might be losing a lot is because you're classed as a "weak" whatever tier you're in. Also, going up to gold/plat/diamond is also harder because, unless you stop playing, you're up at that new tier forever.

If you're a strong, or even an average level whatever, you should be gaining and losing LP as normal.


Thank you to jhoijhoi for the sig, and all the dividers in the guide.

pretty impressive that riot could actually make an elo system worse than the previous one
Thanks for the Signature MissMaw!

Yea it's based off of your hidden Elo but is also pretty glitchy.

DarkPercy went 5-3 and got 100 points, whereas some people gain 20 and lose 40.

You can also skip divisions sometimes.

The whole system is really wonky right now, you can check the league subreddit to see more stories of the system -- people winning 5 games, getting 90 LP, and then losing it all in one.

Thanks to TRUeLM, Plastictree, Scrax, Xiaowiriamu, foggy12, JahGFX, jhoijhoi, msrobinson, JEFFY40HANDS, Nyoike, MissMaw, and me :) for the sigs!

Read this important stuff.

Seems like they've already attempted to fix it a bit.

Well i have been on a winning streak so im confused :/
Gave you a good laugh or helped? rep+ so i can know ;)

Thanks to TinyStar, Jhoi, Xiaowi, Virus, Bard and Arcana(eww)...for my signatures!

Elohell is like Irelia's stun: if your real level is equal or lower than the level you are in, you're STUNNED there forever. If your actual level is higher than the level you are in, you're just SLOWED in your way up.

Well i won akali mid 3-0 as morg then my bot lane fed corki hard, my jungle jax disconnected and gave akali the only kills she got and my top lane went 8-0 vs teemo and fed hard then i managed to help my team to make the score even and all get caught/feed.

I had 97 points before the match now i have 79...and was in a 4 win streak

We shud take all of these people and send them to a prison full of negros and force them to drop the soap for their entire ****ing life.
