The actual elo reset is pretty massive too. Top of the curve gets bumped down all the way to 1490...

Still gonna be worthwhile to wait a month or so before jumping into ranked again.

The smallest range is now for silver, with Gold and Platinum having the widest.
gold is now the top 3% of players or what?

also found out the new box placement for shaco so i can now jungle better then ever (only use one pot between both red and mini golems)

According to their post, Gold is top 3%, plat is top 0.2% of playerbase, with 25% getting bronze and 10% getting silver.

TBH Silver was fine where it was, gold should have started around 1750ish, and plat at around 2k+ Would make more sense than this and be more normalized, instead of a what... 400 ELO window for gold?.

Still, only 10k out of their 5million players will get the skin, so it's still pretty limited in grand scheme of things.

Uh oh, time for me to play ranked and get gold. Step 1, find out how to not get bored 3 minutes into a game.
I'm actually not very interested in the skin, I just want that Gold forum badge.

Miss Fortune Ult is really good with the right combination. Trundle's pillar, Galio's ult, etc.

Also, Talon's portrait is so freaking cartoony looking compared to everyone else, but his in-game model is awesome. He's really fun and his ult has Lux-like cooldown.

Holy ****... I'm gold.

That just doesn't seem right.
I'm going out of state for an WCG qualifier tournament tomorrow and the goal was to power house spam to gold after the tournament at the venue because its open 24 hours a day (4 of us are like within 100 elo of each other, QUAD QUEUE GO)

I like how I'm getting a forum badge + a free skin.
BUT I wanted to work for it ><

I don't think there's any meaning left at allllllllllllllllllllllllll

I suppose the same goal could get me platinum... maybe I'll still try that.

To check your purchase history just go to the shop and on the very right there will be a tab that is labeled "purchases". Pretty easy to find.

So talon... He's um. incredibly fragile before 6. but man at 9 you can farm like mad. end end game (when you have everything) i was dealing 1100 after armor with my ult, critting for 1400, bursting with E -> auto -> Q -> Auto -> ultimate enough to kill any carries clumped together.

he's too good mid-late but not good enough early. i dunno. if you don't have a good lanemate with you bottom though you pretty much can't farm until 9 and get destroyed.

his manacosts are too low. without any + mana regen in masteries, runes, or items i was able to infinitely harrass and farm with W at lvl 3.

That makes him fair if he's weak early but scales late.
no i mean he actually can't do a damn thing to save himself until 6 not that oh he's weak early so it's fair. like if at any point in the laning phase pre 6 the other team goes. let's attack talon. he's dead unless he can flash away. just straight up dead. and he's a melee champion. so you can either choose to farm, or die. or play with a very good player in lane.

not balanced weak. he is the equivilent of playing as a siege minion for 5 lvls.
