How matchmaking works

  • A hidden matchmaking rating (MMR) moves only on wins and losses.
  • The server looks for a fair match first and widens the search the longer you wait.
  • Pick a primary and a secondary position. Autofill is a last resort, and being autofilled protects you next game.

Ready check and dodging

  • You have 12 seconds to accept a found match.
  • Leaving champion select or not locking in is a dodge: 6 minutes, then 30 minutes, then 12 hours, and ranked LP loss.

Co-op vs AI games never change your rank.
