Small Tidbits about the end of Season 2

With the new medals coming out on the PBE, I think it's time we do a small recap of what little we know about this season's ELO brackets and end of season rewards.

The two skins awarded at the end of last season, Judgement Kayle and Victorious J4. As far as we know,they will NOT be returning as rewards this season.

Continue reading for a handful of red posts about the S2  ranked tiers, fluctuation, rewards, and a recap of what last years rewards/cut offs were.

RiotYegg responded to a question about if we will see any eligibility or number cut off fluctuations ( similar to last season where the final numbers were announced a month or so before the end of S1) right before the end of the season:

"Yes, those aren't the final numbers for this season. We'll be putting up an announcement fairly soon with details on how they'll be changing."

This could be potentially frightening for many players. RiotYegg, though, also confirmed that you need not be scared of losing the silver/gold/platinum tier you've worked so hard to achieve:

"I can't go into too many details yet, but if you've already hit the required rating for a tier, you don't need to worry about losing it when we change over to the new numbers."

So that's nice to hear but I bet what you really want to know about is the rewards. Lucky for you RiotaBhorsen commented:

"All tiers will receive rewards of some calibre. Tiers being, Bronze/Silver/Gold/Platinum."

and FeralPony mentioned:

"All ranked play will have rewards. The Season 2 rewards are not exclusive to Solo Queue. We haven't released any information yet about those rewards, but fear not we'll keep you guys in the loop as we release more information."

 Some players have been adamant in requesting rewards being distributed based on a summoners highest Elo for the season instead of their current Elo. It's no surprise that Riot aBhorsen confirmed:

"It will be current Elo"

For those who might not have been around last season, here were the Elo brackets and rewards offered for SEASON ONE.

"Platinum (Top 0.2%) - 1900 and above (3v3: 1700+, pre-made 5v5: 1750+): a framed summoner icon in platinum, a platinum banner in summoner profile, a platinum forum badge and a special skin for Jarvan IV.

Gold (Top 3%) - Between 1520 and 1899 (3v3: 1490-1699, pre-made 5v5: 1500-1749): a framed summoner icon in gold, a gold banner in your summoner profile, a gold forum badge and a special skin for Jarvan IV.

Silver (Top 10%) - Between 1400 and 1519 (3v3: 1410-1489, pre-made 5v5: 1410-1499): a framed summoner icon in silver and a silver banner in your summoner profile.

Bronze (Top 25%) - Between 1249 and 1399 (3v3: 1249-1409, pre-made 5v5: 1249-1409): a bronze banner in your summoner profile."

 Additionally anyone who completed at least 10 matchmaking games received a Judgement Kayle skin.


Hopefully we'll see some more news about this soon. What do you hope to get as a reward for the end of the season? Who would you like to see donning a "Victorious" skin?
