It's just that I find that my opponents are too easy , and that really makes the game boring . It is even worse when you get unskilled teammates , which don't know how to place scout traps and do combos on heroes , the most important is knowing how to last hit in lane . Only just now I played ringo ( I don't have skin ) against a tier 3 ringo enemy in a ranked match . When I saw that in the loading screen , I thought he might be a skilled ringo player , but in game , he is just ..really I don't know how to say it . Here I am doing auto attach resets and things like that and the enemy is just auto attacking away , having like 20 CS in about 7 minutes in to the game. Is there a way developers can make my Elo higher ? It is just boring playing with unskilled enemies , and makes the game too easy.

I just want to get a challenge when playing ranked.

If you feel like your opponents are too easy, then just keep playing ranked and matches will progressively get harder and more challenging. Just keep on playing until you reach a higher rank. If you don't feel like waiting, you can play against the bots on hard mode too. I would also advise taking a break from ranked every now and then to relax and have fun by playing Battle Royale if you want.

Stop assuming skins have anything to do with skill. In no way shape or form do skins indicate skill. It indicates they paid money to collected cards. Skins have absolutely zero to do with skill level.

No skins normally mean they are better players then those with no skins

When was the last time you earned a skin for increasing your skill tier? Especially now when all skins are for sale it means nothing. Doesn't mean anything other than they've collected cards or paid money.

EXACTLY!!!!!!!!! I play against a team of Summer Party Krul, Tier 3 Ringo, and Tier 3 Ardan and guess what THEY SUCKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We beat them with no skins on our team - including a skinless Skaarf! Considering you get his skin out of the tutorial... well...

Actually, If you see someone who doesnt have a Skaarf skin, they are usually the OG players. I started Vainglory when it first came out, and they didn't give you the skin. They didn't even have skins back then. That is why some people do not have Skaarf skins. I purposely don't try to obtain Skaarf skins so people know I am a OG player.

I think the SEMC kind of made it more a challenge to know who is OG and who is not. Before they had the big skin sales and tons of iceboxes in the shops you could clearly tell who was OG - the people who had decent skins. Now it's almost impossible to tell what skill they are based on skins which kinda sucks if you ask me.

Playing against easy opponents happens less and less by the time you get to credible threat+ which is how I easily got to credible threat and the hotness. Keep playing/winning and eventually you will make the higher tiers and have a lot more fun with the game. Good Luck!!

If someone has a tier three skin, it means that they paid money, or took months (used to, now it's easier) to get the cards.

It's like skins in csgo, or league, if you have them, odds are your good with the character your playing
