VALKING.GG just released Ranked Distributions as of Patch 3.0 and I was wondering what the general consensus was. Personally I believe that having ~77% of players in Silver and below, although probably making the quality of games at higher ranks better, creates an incredibly frustrating and chaotic environment in the lower ranks, which is where most new players find themselves.
I mainly only play with friends who are new to tactical FPS's and FPS's in general, and they can get extremely demotivated and tilted simply because of the immense skill range there can be in bronze-silver. In their eyes it just feels unfair and unfun. Do you think these things are related or not?
Do you think the current distributions are a good balance? Or does RIOT need to make some changes?
