Phroxzon encouraged new players to partake in games on Summoner\u2019s Rift before jumping into ranked queues so their gameplay can be analyzed correctly before placement games are taken into account. He noted that seeding information is greatly skewed when players have solely indulged in other queues like ARAM and bot games. This can not only lead to new players being placed incorrectly but their teammates being placed lower than they ended in the previous split, spiraling into a larger, more widespread issue.<\/p>
