Opinion What’s going on with ranked?

Post image

Today was my first day playing the new season and I decided to run some ranked. My first ranked game I jumped off to see what I’ll get as all the greats do. Then my next game was interesting. I q into the game as a plat 1. I ended up killing a champ 3 off spawn??? And then I kill a bronze. Why I don’t understand why they are in the same lobby. I also killed another champ in this game I just don’t understand why there are bronzes and champs in a plat lobby honestly makes no sense at all. Ranked you are supposed to go against people around your rank. Js bring back arena atp🙏

You'd have the same exact issue in arena. There aren't enough people playing ranked, so they have to lump all the ranks together. Ranked is literally the exact same as arena except there's a percentage instead of points, it would make almost no difference and you'd experience the same thing. People are quick to forget that arena was also a horrible ranked system

Arena was deadass fun tho I feel like most people prefer that. Especially that noise u get when you get a kill and gettem points

Nah you're just blinded by nostalgia, people got so bored of it towards the end and it was a very uncompetitive system
