As someone who’s mmr was boosted too because of the addition of ascendant, I think that the mid ranks g3-d2 have been ruined

I’ve climbed solo queue from s1 to p1 in ep5 act 1, and the at that time my games where really fun, everyone was climbing, they wanted to do good but now this act I’ve noticed that the gold-diamond area is a lot more toxic and unhinged, people wanna surrender more, they tilt more and any basic fundamentals are thrown out the window like they stop caring about coordinating.

I kinda believe that these are players who were hard stuck bronze-silver (no hate if u are/were)and were the players that had their mental break after every death, now have a bit of an ego boost cause they think they got here by them selves instead of realizing their mmr was artificially boosted

Now normally I wouldn’t have a problem but they show no signs of wanting to improve, the skill gap between ep4 plats and ep5 plats is really noticeable, it’s forced me to change how I view the game to keep up but now gold to diamond in ep5 act 2, is filled with players who just baby rage

Riot should make it a bit harder to climb next ep, nothing too crazy but enough to give a reality check that says “hey u still need to improve, there’s still a noticeable difference between you and a true diamond” to these ego boosted baby ragers
