Thats the good thing about being able to get that far, lucky.. you have better teams up there lol


Teams are of the ELO you are at.

Teams, relatively atleast, are exactly the same at 20 elo as 2000.

Everyone at 2000 elo got there because they won a bunch of games, and everyone at 20 elo got there because they lost a bunch of games. Relatively, your teams will be roughly your skill level.

ELO is a TRUE measure of skill. It's not how good a measure of skill it is, it's what skill it's measuring.

ELO is a roughly accurate measurement of how well you can carry a team to victory. This doesn't mean "how good are you at AD+Support Bot and then carrying late game" it means "how good are you at winning games?".

The reason that Hotshot and LP are at the top isn't because they are exceptional players, it's because they know when and why to do things.

I believe elo hell is real , sitting below 1200 elo for 200+ games I can assure anyone it's real . Being down there is more luck of the draw than skill anyday of the week . When I finally managed to get out of this sub 1200 elo, I finally started to not have to carry my team to victory and could focus on winning my lane and doing the little things right instead of having to take the game over like you do in the sub 1200's .

Fixed.

There are tons of super high ELO trolls because at that point, you've played so many games that your elo is really hard to change.

Yea, but the lower elo the more IDIOTIC players.
"I sexually Identify as an Attack Helicopter. Ever since I was a boy I dreamed of soaring over the oilfields dropping hot sticky loads on disgusting foreigners. People say to me that a person being a helicopter is Impossible and I’m ****ing ******ed but I don’t care, I’m beautiful. I’m having a plastic surgeon install rotary blades, 30 mm cannons and AMG-114 Hellfire missiles on my body. From now on I want you guys to call me “Apache” and respect my right to kill from above and kill needlessly. If you can’t accept me you’re a heliphobe and need to check your vehicle privilege. Thank you for being so understanding." - Guuse

"uh, I identify as counterstrike and I find this globally offensive" - ???
