2019 Ranked Summary

Riot games just released there plans for the 2019 ranked season fixing big issues focusing on 4 key things:

• Give clear feedback after each placement game.

• Surface a diverse set of challenges throughout the season.

• Provide regular milestones and meaningful goals regardless of skill level.

• Reward deep and ongoing investment.

this really gets me excited especially fixing the placement game issue, not knowing where you stand this was a big one for me when i was first starting off. next year after you play your first game you'll be given a provisional rank only being visible to you, this showing you the lowest you can place at the end of your placement games.

the next thing i can't wait for is positional matchmaking where you are ranked differently in each role, meaning if you main one role then play top you wont get smashed not knowing how to play which sounds really awesome because you get to see how good you are at other roles and you can feel more comfortable playing knowing you wont get a noob top laner or you wont be the noob top laner. they are also playing with different features in ranked system like how it will differ for high elo players or playing secondary roles.

"once a player reaches Master tier, all their games will count toward a single rank, similar to today"

"we know competitive intent is a big deal in Ranked, so we’ll be rolling out new systems to help combat situations where players don’t take games in off-positions seriously. One plan grants bonuses for winning secondary and autofill games that apply the next time you play your primary position. We’re also looking at new penalties to help ensure Ranked stays hardcore."

they are also adding two new tiers most notably to Bronze, Silver, and Diamond for a couple of reasons, first smoothing out bad experiences, and second bringing more differentiation for Diamond players. and in doing so compressing the number of divisions, from five to four. being able to hit new tiers without exposing you to more division promotion series.

they are changing ranked rewards also, because well they aren't that rewarding i mean you have to wait all season to get the border you worked hard for and you only get a Victorious skin for champions most of the time you don't play. this all changes in 2019 adding three split, don't worry Your rank won’t reset between splits but, you’ll get to reflect on how you’re doing, set new goals, and earn better rewards the end of season rewards will still be there, for the ranked border you’ll unlock your rank border as soon as you finish your provisional games for a position. and you'll be able to see it change as you climb the ladder.
