Ranked Teams Are LIVE!

Great News!

Ranked teams are now LIVE! Now your roster of eight players on your team can compete for top spot in the League of Legends ladder system! Want to know how? Here's a short tutorial:

1. Log in to your League of Legends client
2. Click on your summoner profile
3. Click on the CREATE A RANKED TEAM button (it's to the top)
4. Fill in your team information.

Simple huh?

The great feature about this is that your team will no longer be matched inappropriately against other teams, based on your team's average rank! Now the team ITSELF has a rank, so your team will move upward, starting with the weakest team first! I believe that this is the best feature about it, that eventually, your team will reach a point where you will win half of the games and lose the other half, and that will be where your team belongs. Fantastic!

New Team Ranking System Has LoL Community Buzzing!

Guys!

I'm so excited that League of Legends is implementing an entirely new ranking system! In this new ranking system, your rank will now be calculated SEPARATELY for each team that you participate in! This means that your ranking will NO LONGER GO DOWN because of a few different matches. The solo/duo que will still be available as a separate ranking system!

I have been waiting for Riot to implement this system into their infrastructure. I have enjoyed this way of ranking players in StarCraft 2 and am glad that we finally have it here in League of Legends.

Does ELO Hell Exist?

Guys, I am going to go out on a limb here and profess to you my anti-religious views about a popular topic. So guys, how many of you are stuck in ELO Hell and how many of you have gotten out of ELO Hell fairly easily? The bigger question is: do you believe that there really IS an ELO Hell, or is it just an excuse made by players to make themselves feel better about staying at a low ELO?

Of course, what I have to say is solely my opinion and my opinion only: ELO Hell does NOT exist! I firmly believe that whatever ELO you are in is the ELO that you deserve to be in, especially over a large period of time. Think about it: if you don't deserve to be in the ELO that you are currently in, then you will rise above the ranks very quickly! This is because a low ELO with 5 baddies on the enemy team versus the 4 baddies on your team will naturally get stomped on by the only good player on your team (which happens to be you, correct?). You will simply win more games than you lose, and your rank will slowly go up and up and up!


I actually made a poll about this on the official League of Legends forums, and I would love it if you could vote on it by clicking on the link here:

>>  Does ELO Hell REALLY Exist? Like... "really" really exist?  <<

Well, happy gaming!

Please note: this tier list was created for Ranked Game (Draft Mode) in the higher ELO brackets! This tier list is used by the pros, and the skill level required in order to achieve the same results is different from that of normal solo queue players! (It assumes that the player is high-ranking and has stellar experience with those champions).

If you were not looking for this Ranked Game Tier List, then you will want to check out: Remmix's Champion Tier List (5v5 Normal Solo Queue) which will give you a better idea about the champion picks for the rest of us normal game players! What are you waiting for? Go check it out now!
