I'm not sure what it is but I want some of that stuff plat V's are taking. It feels like something just kicks in. I haven't yet discovered what it is but there is something seriously wrong with that elo. I wonder what kind of mastermind you have to be to pick
Dr. Mundo support with
Blitzcrank in the bot lane while
Quinn goes to top lane.
Sure, these games are interesting once in a while but I'm at my limit after 7/12 games in my recent match history are afk/intentional troll games. Q.q

The game after.. oh god. At least they're trying this time.

Wait wasn't it like this:
Bronze: People who suck at the game
Silver: People who suck at the game but know how to lasthit
Gold: Average players
Platinum: Average players with common sense
Diamond: People with common sense AND game knowledge
High dia + Master: People with consistent mechanics, sufficient game knowledge and an understanding of the game and mindsets of players
Challenger: people who devote a LOT of time to the game and fill the conditions for master and high dia :P
Soooo... how come people in plat have no common sense? no game knowledge? It seems like a massive mixed bag. You get some people who're good enough to easily breach diamond, and others whom make you wonder if they got elo boosted because they're god awful...

In my opinion game knowledge is VERY limited till you get diamond+, mostly people think they know a lot about the game while they're still making a lot of essential mistakes in their thought process. In solo queue, its super easy to get a high rank without a serious sense of game knowledge by just stomping mechanically and making sure people don't get to the phase where game knowledge/decision making matters.

I personally think that is a skill as well.
