What if you only got the low% each time?
well it would be unlikely but iād still be mature and try
Would it not feel unfair every time you lost, because the game was intentionally rigged against you?
again you are exaggerating
if i lost but there is something i could have done to win that i didnāt, iād rather focus on that more than my low starting win %.
if there was 0 way for me to win or something was inheretly rigged then sure.
but you are again exaggerating this whole thing and this isnāt what FoL is
The game is rigged so that your average would always be 15%
and thereās still a 15% chance i can win.
and iād try to make that as high as possible.
because the reward(internet clout and pride) is higher if i do end up winning
No, you only get a 7.5% chance to win.
For what itās worth, Priestess, I donāt see people replacing out in FM as necessarily comparable to replacing out in ToL
For one thing, replacing out is generally accompanied by someone else replacing in, which means that youāre not leaving your team with no recourse
Additionally, FoL is a much greater time commitment than ToL, and runs over a much longer period. Itās reasonable to expect people to have enough of a sense of their plans for the next half an hour that they donāt join a game of ToL if theyāre going to have to do something urgent in 5 minutes; itās far easier for you to get injured and land in the hospital, or be too sick to play, or have a family emergency, or be unexpectedly scheduled to work 60 hours at your job because itās the holiday season, and given that youāve spoken out against people sacrificing their personal wellbeing for FM I feel like āaccept that sometimes people are going to have to replace outā is a reasonable step towards accomplishing an actually reasonable balance
Iāve never replaced out of a game, but I also think that if we want to ensure that FM can be a place where people flourish, itās important to protect peopleās right to replace out, so that people with legitimate reasons donāt end up worried that theyāre doing something wrong by replacing out
Thatās literally not how it works but okay
i donāt know what ur on about
but substitue 15 with 7.5 and my point still stands
7.5 was suggested by Orange, so Iām using that.
thinking face
well i disagree with that number personally
if you wish to argue against my point use 15%.
but iād still play a class that had a 7.5% chance of winning because i like FM and it would be fun to try
In any case, youāre conflating the average chance to win with your personal chance to win
If you play NK well, your chances of winning will(/should) go up
If you play poorly, your chances of winning should go down
Even if you play amazingly, others have an average of 50% of playing better than you, lowering your winrate, even if you play good.
We balance for the majority
Why should we balance for the majority? What if you never roll the majority?
so are you saying no matter how well you play that 50% of players will play better than you???
what r u trippin on
I meant majority of ppl not uninformed majority
Thatās not how any of this works
