LoL Planning To Remove Inter-Division Promotion Games Next Season
In a dev post on ranked and matchmaking, Riot Games announced that they are looking to remove inter-division promotions in the next season.
According to Cody “Riot Codebear” Germain, Product Lead for Competitive Gameplay, they are planning to remove inter-division promos to “improve progression satisfaction and skill expression” in Ranked. The upcoming change will mean that League of Legends will be following Legends of Runeterra and Teamfight Tactics in its promotion system or therefore lack of it.
Furthermore, Riot Games touched on a number of goals to improve on in the ranked system. In the past months, they have reduced the likelihood of having imbalanced autofills and premades across teams. Soon, Riot aims to reduce the likelihood where there are large gaps between players’ ranks in games. With regards to placements, Riot will soon be implementing a system that calibrates new players relative to their performance in other queues.
Lastly, Riot is taking action against disruptive behaviors in-game and in Champ Select. Starting June to July, players will be able to report players in Champ Select as a first step towards reducing lobbies being ‘taken hostage’.
As the year reaches the half-way point, Riot Games continues to work on balancing matchmaking and providing an enjoyable experience for its players on the Rift.
