While what you say has merits of truth to it , I think you ' re exaggerating it . You are right , the skills of the new Champions are not as good as the old ones . That ' s what happens when the ranks get bumped like that . But most of them are Superstars , some are AllStars . No one who was actually Challenger Elite tier made it to Champion . I think what you ' re seeing is a combination of people trying to push really hard for those last ranks before the rewards are out . I think you ' re seeing a lot of people who got carried and are trying to get farther or are just pushing really really hard and don ' t really belong but made it by sheer determination alone . It should not be as bad once the next season starts .
