All high-ranked players can now breathe with this recent update by Riot!

RIOT GAMES

Riot Games detailed earlier in their update that they will be focussing on interactions between players. Riot will also be ‘evolving’ its competitive experience across all ranks.

The update generally focused on the ranked decay in competitive matches. Currently, rank decays are implemented where high-ranked players will have their ranks decayed due to inactivity.

Generally, the ranked decay forces high-ranked players to grind their ranks.

Issues rose on the decay after players appeared to lose their ranks quicker than expected.

“Though the intent of decay is to ensure that only the current best players are represented at the top of the ladder,” Riot told.

“It isn’t the intent to send those that have decided to take a few weeks off down to a place that they don’t belong,” they told in their update.

The developers revealed that their team is now working on solving this issue. They told that they want to ensure high-ranked players’ peace of mind while inactive.

In addition, the developers have also included a new leaderboard available for players.

“We’re experimenting with a more personal social comparison leaderboard right where you need it—directly in the ranked lobby,” told Riot. 

This new leaderboard will allow players to compare their stats with their friends rather than with people they are unfamiliar with.

 “compete more clearly against their friend’s list, instead of a bunch of strangers they have no affinity for.” is what they are aiming according to the devs.

As of this moment, it is still unconfirmed when this update will be implemented. However, the League is expecting a patch scheduled on August 11.
