Why are kills still weighed more than assists on other roles though? That's so dumb, getting 3 out of 5 kills in a 5 for 0 team-fight doesn't make you any more skilled than getting 0 out of 5 kills in a 5 for 0 team-fight, I shouldn't have to be going out of my way to try and secure kills for myself no matter what role I am just to try and get a higher grade.

It's probably used as an indirect way to measure kill contribution. IMO it's a terrible way to do it, but it might be better than making kills and assist equally valuable. At least they stopped doing it for support, so... "baby steps", I guess.

They already have the death recap system. I am willing to believe that the actual values in the background are correct and it is only the visualisation that sucks(unless they made it more useful since I quit playing), so why not use that data? it shouldn't matter who made the killing blow.

It's probably both though. It probably has lots of bugs when calculating the contribution on top of the visualization ones (notice that some of these were fixed, while others were left untouched because it was "too much work for too little gain").

I also think coming up with a "kill contribution into score" algorythm is not as simple as we're making it sound. You'd have to weigh different abilities and how much that means for each champion with their current build, not to mention non-damaging abilities that also contribute to a kill. It might even have more complications than the current system has (I still think it's terrible tho).

Probably to make solo kills/outplays more rewarding than just assisting in a gank. I personally consider solo kills the most one of the most important things to look at when judging laning performance (outside from large cs leads or tower takes) in solo queue so perhaps it works that way.

I agree with Vapora, pretty ridiculous that it's calculated this way. Like, if it would be the champion dealing the most damage during a kill or something like that I would find it more logical (but also bad as different roles have different damage patterns).

I would not be surprised if their real data was as broken as their visualization. I'm not sure whether it's still broken though. Would also not be surprised if someone would prove that the engine is non-deterministic by the way.

My happy: I survived the stress load after last scouting camp as a leader, and now I'll be able to enjoy a relaxing week with friends in Belgium! Weather's going to be (almost too) good apparently so that's a plus as well.

That moment when people insult you because they are 0/3/0 and say "Dude, you are Gold, the hell you playing unranked? Of course we lose..."

Feels good man.

On a side note, finally finished my first year at University and I must say... it's been quite the ride. Out of 10 subjects, I left 2 unfinished, so that's trouble... but it's less than the average, so I've got that going for me. Either way, I'll be able to get those out of the way next year (hopefully).

Holy ****, that's a lot of classes! I usually take 4 classes (plus sometimes labs) per semester.
If I helped you out, be sure to throw me a +Rep!
