@chhopsky @T0xicbyNature @gromprider ah yes, guess it's time to take your opinion and completely ignore it vs actual statistical data. cheers!
English
@KonssnoK @T0xicbyNature @gromprider you dont know what you're asking for and you don't understand the data you've looked at
English
lowkey kinda feel bad for riot, people begged for a rank reset and then when the reset happened everyone complains about game quality.. no matter what they do people will still be mad at riot/devs
English
@chhopsky @T0xicbyNature @gromprider I did enough in the past, ty.
Also the current ladder is completely fucked up, data shows it.

MORE 🧵(1/3): ISW has observed evidence to assess that Russian forces lost control of 116 square kilometers in April 2026, not counting areas into which Russian troops may have infiltrated. The Russian rate of advance across the battlefield has been steadily declining since November 2025 as continued Ukrainian ground counterattacks, Ukrainian mid-range strikes, the February 2026 block on Russia’s use of Starlink terminals in Ukraine, and the Kremlin’s throttling of Telegram have exacerbated existing problems within the Russian military.
The relative decline in the rate of Russian advances may be related in part to annual seasonal patterns. ISW has previously observed relative declines in the rate of Russian advances during March and April due to seasonal weather effects, namely the muddy rasputitsa season, the period in which melting frozen winter ground and spring rains degrade conditions for mechanized movement. Russian forces have previously increased their advances in May and June as the ground dries, and it remains to be seen whether such trends will repeat in 2026.

NEW: Russian forces in April 2026 suffered a net loss of territory controlled in the Ukrainian theater for the first time since Ukraine’s August 2024 incursion into Kursk Oblast. Other Key Takeaways: The relative decline in the rate of Russian advances may be related in part to annual seasonal patterns. The rate of Russian advances has slowed in 2026 compared to 2025, but the changing character of the war, particularly Russia’s increased use of infiltration tactics over the course of 2025, makes year-on-year comparisons difficult. The Kremlin uses Russian infiltration tactics in part to exaggerate Russian control of terrain. ISW has reviewed and refined its mapping data and methodology, identifying and rectifying some data artifacts that did not affect the visible map geometry but did affect some calculations of area. These changes have not affected ISW’s previously assessed trendlines of the Russian rate of advance. Russian milbloggers identified problems with the Russian air campaign and assessed that Russian forces may not be able to take advantage of reported increased bombing capabilities. Russian forces recently advanced near Novopavlivka and in western Zaporizhia Oblast. Ukrainian forces recently advanced in the Kostyantynivka-Druzhkivka tactical area. Ukrainian forces likely struck a Russian air defense system during their April 30 to May 1 overnight strike against Krasnodar Krai. Russian forces launched 163 drones toward Ukraine overnight.

Un saluto da Lugansk (Donbass, Federazione Russa) con un invito a tutti a sfruttare una straordinaria occasione.

@zadnes426 @AurumTM @drewlevin that's true only if you are extremely better than the others. if you are diamond player in a bronze lobby you will carry most games. if you are an emerald player in a silver lobby you won't impact that much
English
@KonssnoK @AurumTM @drewlevin If u were better than the players in your elo u would climb i know that in a lot of games u are gonna encounter trolls and afks, it happens to everybody but if u are actually good u are gonna climb no matter what
English
pretty wild to read a bunch of masters+ players talk about how bad matchmaking feels 72 hours after we stopped using a bunch of historical data references that underpinned skill evaluation in apex, then scroll down and read someone argue that we should’ve done that for all ranks.
English
@coyoteirl @Elolesio_ nah they are just interested in engagement. This is why they listen only to the top 0.9% of players, the ones that stream and are challengers. for riot business, matchmaking doesn't need to be fair, it needs to be engaging. This is why there are still smurfs everywhere
English
@KonssnoK @Elolesio_ And it really does go further than that, and as any business, Riot has a clear incentive to keep players playing their game, so I would rather even call it this aforementioned in-game “behavior” not just performance.
English
Any belief in LoseQ comes from fundamentally not understanding, how LoL works, and what is consistency, variance and adaptability
Good players know what these concepts are, and thats why only low elos think that it exists
1 hour with a 10$ coach can cure anyone from this belief

@coyoteirl @Elolesio_ cool, here you can read some data if you want open.substack.com/pub/lorenzocon…
English
@KonssnoK @Elolesio_ Indeed it is my personal experience, and in a way it's my testimony of what I've witnessed continuously in mine and other people's games. We should also not forget the ever changing nature of the matchmaking algorithm, the endless iterations that it goes through, time after time.
English
Again, biggest issue this season is the Master0 lp games with people who are Diamond 4. Riot shifted a ton of people from D2/D1 to Masters, but I don't think they changed algorithm, so it still reads their mmr similarly putting them in same games. So on reset D4 get in M0 games
English
@coyoteirl @Elolesio_ this is just your personal experience and idea.. instead i actually studied what happens across 1 million games of random people, that is not a thing.
English
@KonssnoK @Elolesio_ One thing I didn't touch on is ranked journey and how whether you won/lost a specific game does determine what kind of players you're gonna get in your next games. This also seems to heavily influence it, and it's like you only need to fuck up once and now you've got hurdles
English
@zadnes426 @AurumTM @drewlevin well not their main accounts for sure, but still. resetting the ladder and removing duoing would remove boosting
English
@KonssnoK @AurumTM @drewlevin My guy the boosters are gonna keep boosting and same with smurfs accounts, i dont really believe u are playing with diamonds in gold, and even if thats true it only means the gold players are doing really well or the diamond player is ultra garbage
English
@KonssnoK @drewlevin And yes I am winning most of my games anyway, that doesn't mean that I should be playing a game with a diamond 2 first time brand adc that doesn't hit a single spell VS a Draven yuumi duoq smurfing
English
Hi @drewlevin I was GM 1.7k lps last season, now after the reset I get constantly matched with people Diamond / PLATINUM / EMERALD on new accounts running it down for fun, DuoQ abusing and so on 1/2

El losing queue deberia ser ilegal y convertir cualquier juego al que juegan niños en una tragaperras encubierta con estrategias sacadas de la industria de los juegos de azar debería ser un delito.
Español
@turigarlol it's funny how peopl speak about losingq and winningq as a myth without data but just following personal experience. I have data, they are real.
English
Por supuesto que lo dice un jugador en winnersQ desde la season 6.
Esto es como cuando un señor en los 70 compró una casa por un paquete de PapaDeltas y dice que ahora los chavales no se independizan por el netflix, tenían mejores condiciones, igual que tú en winnersQ, Porta.

@ClickTheNik @drewlevin Dude they can say what they want but smurfing brings engagement. In my opinion they should reset everything, disable duo for one season everywhere. The fact that duos now pollute diamond is just riot fault of not thinking about how their system works
English
@KonssnoK @drewlevin Riot is against smurfing and said so multiple times, I don't get them once every while, I get them every game, their challenger account doesn't exists anymore is just master 0 LPS, they disabled duoq on apex tier, yet I can still meet them on fresh accounts, can't be clearer
English
@StappingPower @drewlevin i think they removed that feature cause i haven't seen it applied to multiple 0/18 people
English
i mean i know people have bad games but this was a 24 minute game my adc flamed my supp and then ran it down bot. game didnt get terminated nor did i get a feedback report after the game. surely this isnt intended @drewlevin Game ID:5551989746
English
@coyoteirl @Elolesio_ bullshit, matchmaking is based on a single signal, win/loss, it cannot be intelligent. RIOT does not use AI to matchmake, it uses a modified version of ELO
English
@Elolesio_ But this is simply not the whole truth. The truth is that the matchmaking system is more “intelligent” than people yap about it being. We're in 2026. Of course, that Riot is using Ai to matchmake. Of course, that there are factors which Riot optimizes for, such as ppl's playrate.
