This process can be thrilling for some, and nerve-wracking for others. What rings true for all, however, is that everyone has a story to tell about their journey.

Summary

  • Some players feel dissatisfaction due to perceived irregularities in the team composition.
  • Others are positively surprised by their sudden climb in the ladder.
  • A number of players showcased good humor whilst sharing their stories.
  • There is a general consensus that toxicity in the game seems to be a reoccurring issue, regardless of placement outcome.
