Why are the casual lobbies so stacked with the top players now ?

I noticed this season im getting better teammates but also playing agasint the best of the best. Is the new ranked system making the so called 10k hardstuck masters quit ranked and 3 stack in casuals now ? I didnt get a single win yet this season so i am really curious.

  • It is very possible that a lot of Master rank players moved to TRIOS if they dont have friends to play with.

    This new ranking system can be very frustrating for solo players no matter how good in game they are.

    Early game kills have 0 value to RP so you will never rank up from just kills like you could before,

    now you need to carry your team to atleast TOP5 too which is sometimes impossible.

    TRIOS ? You just go and straight fight, its 100% fun no matter if you solo or not.

    I was almost Diamond3 in S12 as solo, now I struggle to get from silver1/gold4 because I just wanna fight (and my random team moslty wants too) and we may get a few kills, but the chances we will last long enough to rank up while taking every fight possible are just too slim/

    @r1ggedgame Wait, are you in my lobbies? Because that's what I've been seeing for a few seasons now.

    The champion team is almost always a diamond, master, or pred.
  • @Ryuta47 In fact it's probably same as the last season. The difference is : most diamond players got their Master last season because it was easier... which means that like 14% of players now can display a Master badge and Master divetail.

    But less people are grinding this season that's for sure... it's like why grind for Plat 4 when I used to grind for Master?
