IS EUW actually worth it?

[quote=CrysJaL]I've been playing LoL for about 6 months now and I'm currently Silver 2. I was pushing around Silver 1 and got demoted a few times and most recently I have been pushed back to 37 Lp. Sadly in maybe two of the last few games I felt I was responsible for the loss. I have had toxic players constantly flaming or finishing 2/11 and i feel like I've re-entered Elo hell somehow. I know people talk alot about how EUW is a waste of space and filled with trolls dcers etc. Is it worth paying to transfer to ENE for a better experience? Any honest opinion welcome.[/quote]

[quote=Vynertje]EUW is known to be relatively toxic to other servers but EUNE certainly isn't much better lol. Especially considering the overall skill level on the server is far below EUW.[/quote]

It might be easier to face it on EUNE tho because you'd only get some pôlacky kurwa kurwa kurwa instead of English.[/quote]

I mean if someone tells me that they banged my mom, I deserve to at least hear it in English.... Oh, and French of course.[/quote]

[quote=Zordagoth][quote=GrandmasterD] Oh, and French of course. [/quote] That's probably the most toxic community on this server, MUCH MORE than every other one ... I play on EUW, and I'm French ._. (not toxic tho ;D) As Janitsu said, toxicity is probably on every serv anyway, the only real difference between serv being average skills and your ping ^^[/quote]

[quote=Bokonon]In my opinion there's no difference between EUW and EUNE, it's about Elo. I didn't notice it at first, but when I played on a Silver smurf account the difference became visible. Don't expect miracles though, I'm Diamond and there's still at least one toxic person in either team, every game.[/quote]

[quote=Last Plagas]EUW is a joke compared to the russian server. Better experience can be achieved simply by muting 9 people every game or at least turning [all] chat off. People barely time objestives before diamond and in silver chat is definetly useless.[/quote]

[quote=zohaa]I was wondering how long your games would have to be to make the most IP per minute. Do you earn more per minute for a long game or a short game? Or is it the same?[/quote]

[quote=FalseoGod][quote=zohaa]I was wondering how long your games would have to be to make the most IP per minute. Do you earn more per minute for a long game or a short game? Or is it the same?[/quote] IP starts ramping after the 15 minute mark on Summoner's Rift and Howling Abyss, if I'm not mistaken. We've won a game in 4:43 minutes on Abyss (not even kidding, we started 5v4, then another on their team quit while the dc'd returned and it was 5 pokemonsters vs 5 melees) and we won no IP at the end :> edit: read banana's answer, next page[/quote]

Or is it the same?[/quote]Not that it is on topic, but I will answer your question anyway: Every you win before the 25min mark will give you the most IP (76 IP for a win, 51 for a loss). This is because the formula Riot uses to get IP starts with a minimum amount. This minimum starts to build up after the 25min counter and after that you gain IP per minute bonus (2,3 IP/minute if you win, 1,4 IP/min if you lose) until the 55 minute mark which the IP doesn't increase anymore. This 25min reward is based around the IP per minute, thus if you win at 20min, you get 5min worth of IP for free. If you have matches beyong the 55 minute mark, you wont get bonus IP anymore thus it is "economically" speaking best to end the game before 55 minutes. All these numbers are based on summoners rift in PvP Source: http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Influence_Points[/quote]
