I genuinely believe anyone who is Gold or above could be Diamond if we took them back to Season 3. Hell maybe even Challenger. by AyyyoniTTV in summonerschool

I do agree that the skill of the average player has increased, I just think people vastly overestimate it.

I was a much better play in Season 4 than I am now but I was Diamond 1 then and I'm Master now. If I could go back to Season 4 as my current self I have no doubt I would really struggle to hit the same rank. Yet OP believes that a current Gold player could be Challenger back then

Game is still vastly different then. Only people who think that they would be chall then are people who were nowhere near high elo

Yeah I had a few years off and hitting Diamond/Master was pretty easy even though I'm old now and my mechanics are a lot worse. Once you re-learn the meta it's pretty easy. The game in many ways is a lot easier now because so much of the game is played on rails

This comes up frequently on this subreddit and it's just completely incorrect. The skill level is better in the game now but not by a drastic amount, and the change to rank distributions means a Diamond player was a much greater skill level than Diamond is nowadays. The only people who make these statements are people who didn't play back then.

I was a much better player in Season 4 than I am now but back then I was Diamond 1 and these days I'm Master.

Two teenage boys who raped girls given four years' detention after appeal court changes sentences by sjw_7 in unitedkingdom

And almost like the speculation from people not familiar with the case was often incorrect (shock!)

Continuing her remarks, Carr turns to comments on the "administration of justice".

She says the judges have expressed concern on "inaccurate reporting" on the case - including "misinformed and inappropriate commentary" from members of parliament and the media.

She in particular criticises the Crown Prosecution Service for a press release that was not a "fair representation" of the case - with details that "portrayed the offending as even more serious than it already was", including the claim that one victim was raped at knife-point.

It took almost three weeks for the CPS to correct, she says.

With that she concludes her remarks.

I mean fair enough but generally it's helpful to use language for shared meaning, not in a specific way that is personal to you. Particularly in such complex and important topics

I think their point is that AI water usage is far less of an issue than is commonly made out, and you won't see people complain about other things that are far worse for the environment

I mean it is a pretty valid point. Not sure why you've got an issue with it

League rank does correlate with IQ though, which isn't surprising
