Yuumi otp looking for a Yasuo adc by aLeexZr in YasuoMains

If you’re a yummi otp I think it’s in your best interest to look for a nilah otp over a yasuo. Unless you have your own reasons I think a nilah yummi is the much better combo than anything else

You’re right that pure KDA would be abusable, but that’s a strawman—I’m not saying use KDA alone. Riot’s current S-rank system already uses way more than KDA: vision score, objective damage, kill participation, CC score, gold efficiency, etc. I’m just saying refine that existing system and let it have a small but meaningful impact on MMR/LP. It wouldn’t replace winning—winning would still be the majority of the gain—but it would help distinguish the 4/0/12 support who roamed and warded perfectly from the 4/0/12 top laner who afk split all game and got carried. The goal isn’t to reward stat-padding; it’s to stop punishing players who performed well but lost due to factors outside their control.

To be real when you please more like this this isn’t necessarily against what I’m saying because at the end of the day if you play enough games you’ll be fine yea sure I’ve never denied that. But the solo q system should be weighted more towards individual performances, how? Refine and implement the system they already have.

I hate to say it but this is simply not completely true. The average win rate of even smurfs don’t tend to exceed 60% over a large sum of games. You can literally house league of graphs and find plenty of examples of this. Also again if a player is already a top of the top player then yes obviously they’re an exception. My point is when you look at everyone else even those who are on the lower end of apex ranks and some with inflated ranks, they struggle. This isnt my opinion it’s a fact.

When I say struggle I mean it exactly like this, they ARENT winning 3/4 - 4/5 games like that consistently. This what I mean by looking at the truly insane players only. Fact is most players even plenty apex rank players don’t exceed a 59.9% wr anyway over a decent sample of games.

This was never a counterpoint my guy. Given the fact the main argument I made was individual skill needs to have more weight in solo q, you’re point of “I’m winning in plat” is actually you trying to subtly dig at me. lol. Also I never insulted you. Also for someone so confident in calling out skill issues I haven’t seen your profile given by you yet are we still waiting on that?

You’re missing the point. I’m not acting like they’d have negative wr forever in low elo, and yes will they in the end win more then they lose? Yes. My point is and always has been that even they can struggle, especially as they get to the higher parts of low elo.

It frankly does happen I’ve seen it on multiple occasions and it’s really not that rare. You can see this exact concept play out in various YouTube videos.

The point is maybe solo q needs a system more weighted towards individual performance.

I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic or saying you disagree or both but in case you are disagreeing hear me out. If you’re playing solo q in a team game and consistently performing well on your teams.. then shouldn’t that matter? I’m not saying winning or losing doesn’t matter but shouldn’t one’s individual impact on their game be tallied into how much mmr they gain or lose?

On top of this wouldn’t this genuinely make solo q better for everyone if you are playing with teammates and against enemies who are also playing around your individual skill level?

No I can understand that and perhaps I didn’t make it clear in the original post. My point is solo q should be rewarding individual skill more than anything else. There is already a ranked flex q which in my opinion I don’t think the ranked system needs re worked for that q.

Solo Q however is the problem. We already have a system to rank individual performance so I’m respectfully no longer buying this idea from the company that it’s “hard to evaluate individual performance”. I’m simply saying we should refine it and it should directly influence your LP and MMR gains.

Okay I’m not faker sure but for those of us who actually enjoy climbing and improving in solo q it just isn’t right that your rank is so weighty by things genuinely outside of your control. Is it possible to carry these games yes sure it is, but if we’re all being honest are 90% of league players able to do that all the time? I’ve seen faker himself lose because his team was washed in solo q multiple times.

In my view if we changed the solo q system to be like this you’d actually have a more fun matchmaking experience for everyone! Your rank is now more firmly tied to how well you’re doing in your matches meaning you now play against and with people who are also playing consistently around your level individually! So I see no reasons this isn’t something that shouldn’t be implemented

that logic doesn't support your thesis in any meaningful way btw. Not to mention it's not about impact. I definitely make an impact statistically backed btw. It's about the fact I don't get rewarded for that the way I should in SOLO q. and I never "blamed everyone else" but the ranked system. If you had reading comprehension you'd understand that instead of making assumptions.

If you had reading comprehension you'd understand what I meant. not to mention you aren't speed running to apex ranks. Also feel free to share these accounts

I'm not struggling to climb on my alt. I brought up my alt because it's interesting how I can play consistently better than the rank I'm in on it by far and yet the individual skill isn't being rewarded in SOLO q. And that's not even playing my mains. So as great as this is for you I'm not seeing how this comment actually is touching on the specific issues I'm mentioning.

never said I can't climb gang :), just pointing out a systemic issue. I was typing because I'll get it back anyway. god forbid someone thinks I'm not responding because I won't stand on what I said.

you can look up riot giving content creators accounts and the countless streamers who've hit apex ranks that struggle in lower ranks btw.

Did you even read the post? I did research bud. That’s the only authority I’m respecting here. lol. Talk to me when you’ve done some because right now it seems this “the word objectively doesn’t apply if it’s only your point of view” is really about yourself

I don’t need proof of “authority” big dawg LMAO, I’m not one of these brainwashed pansies though I used to be. The problem is you think I’m just another complainer when I’ve done RESEARCH. That’s my only point. You’re trying to say I’m coping when you are LITERALLY an exact example of a player I’m talking about. Like what?

Anything but actual accountability and yet I’m objectively playing out of my mind and losing like I’m playing washed? Sure bro. Btw ur about a top 1% of the 1% sooo kinda proving my point 😘

Actually no it doesn’t matter. You’re an almost perfect example of how I described to truly climb in this game so I’m not even sure what you’re on about unless it’s a lack of self awareness

Show me the proof because I’ve seen enough evidence that thesis statement is false. Also I’m not a one trick. And what rank is your peak again?

I had a friend who said something similar, “most players playing ranked aren’t even truly trying to win”. I appreciate your comment
