PH Players Skill Level Significantly Weaker Than SG/MY Players
I have played over 50 ranked games, started from emerald 4 and managed to hit diamond 4 just now.
My Experience:
It seems that PH players has a significantly lower skill level compared to SG/MY(im not sure about Thai). The PH emerald players seem to have a skill of our high gold/low plat SG/MY players, so which ever team gets these players will lose the game as the skill gap is too significant/large.
What I am saying is a diamond SG/MY player is easily at least masters in PH server. However, I understand that there is nothing that we can do about it as it will take time for the PH players to lose until they reach their rank they belong to, which will have a lot of sacrifices :)
I recommend for those who want to start their rank journey to wait a few months before beginning as this will ruin your rank experience. (I've been in diamond every season but this is really unplayable whereby you are just flipping a coin, and see which team gets more PH players will lose) I have never took 50+ games to get back to diamond 4 btw.
Tips on how to know they are from PH:
- go to their opgg profile, and look at their summoner level(level 300++)
- they will not have any past rank history shown prior to 2025. lets say for an example their rank after 5 games provisional is emerald 3. Means, they were diamond in their own server(somehow LOL) in 2024 season.
- match history placing in OPGG always 9th/10th.
- they keep typing in Filipino language in chat, and their summoner names are in Filipino language.
Lastly, I really had no idea the standards in the PH server are this low. You guys can hate me all you want, no offense but im just speaking out the harsh truth. Even my friend hovering around Masters/Grandmaster has been complaining about you PH players.
You can blame on your 50ms ping, but i have reached emerald 4 in Korea server under 95ms in 2022. Its a guaranteed skill issue rather than a ping issue.
Peace out.
