New "Master" Ranked Tier Coming Soon
Earlier today, diamond one and challenger tier players shared that Riot has
emailed them a heads-up on a new "Master" ranked tier they will be
implementing soon.
Here is the full email, taken from snoopeh's twitter account:
"Your spot in Diamond 1 or Challenger tier means we wanted you to be
among the first to know we've updated the design of our ranked play system
specifically to address feedback around the end of Season 3 and Challenger.
We take ranked competition seriously, and we know challenger immunity
caused issues with transparency around standings at the end of last season.
Not knowing whether or not you were about to get kicked out of the tier you'd
worked so hard to reach, or earning 0 LP three times in a row sucks.
So we've developed a new ward to challenge your skills, The Master Tier,
which brings with it some improvements to the old system. Master Tier will
share the same LP ladder as Challenger, but unlike Challenger, there is no
hard player limited to Master tier. Once released, players who reach their
promotion series at the top of the Diamond 1 will enter Mater Tier if they
are successful. And yes, that means that on release there will be no players
in Master Tier, but it will begin to fill as soon as players start winning
their promos.
When Master Tier Launches, players in Challenger will remain in their
current position but the competition kicks off right away as Challenger will
now rotate on a twenty-four hour schedule with no immunity.
Each time the clock hits zero, it will recalculate the top 200 players or
50 teams; promoting any players from Master who are now in the top 200 or
teams in the top 50 in LP, and removing players who have fallen below the top
200 and demoting them to Master.
We'll be making a wider announcement in the coming weeks ( for example
we've also eliminated LP clamping ) along with more about the end of the
season, but as one of the players most impacted by this change, we wanted to
each out to you directly.
Thanks for playing ranked, and GLHF for the rest of the 2014 season."
In the reddit thread discussing Master Tier, Riot Socrates popped in to
comment:
"Hey all, to clarify on one point: there is no hard limit to the number
of players in master tier like the current challenger 200 spots. This doesn't
mean these players will be immune from demotion once they achieve the tier.
So master tier could be the top 511 or 534 players in a region based on the
amount of participation in ranked, etc. Players who achieve Master tier will
have a short immunity period and then be vulnerable to demotion if they don't
maintain their performance at that level."
He continued:
"Demotion will work similarly to other tiers, where there are a few
checks before you fall. A player will fall back into diamond 1 if they lose
enough games in master tier.
We expect to be on PBE in the next few days."
He also confirmed Master tier will have it's own loading screen border:
"Yes, there will be a unique loading screen border for master tier."
