Goodbye to upgrades

The latest news that people will like the most Is that boredom will disappear from League of Legends. This is very good news and it was indeed in line with the policy they had had for some time to remove the boredom of moving up the ranks and reduce achieving “only” three to two wins to move up the division. .

In this way, Riot Games is doing the same thing as in other titles and that has worked out quite well, as with TFT, There have been no promotions since its launch brave , In the latter, his score fluctuated in the rankings, because it was not known at first how they added, and then the new score by games appeared later, something similar to what Riot Games did with League of Legends in the middle of Season 13.
