User blog comment:Texas Snyper/Elo Hell and You: Part 1 - The Impassable Barrier/@comment-46.246.185.66-20110906231301

while it is interesting, i think it works only with equal gains/losses i suffer from elo hell since i got 10 leavers in a row (no kidding) when i started ranked i have climbed up but lost so much tme doing it. so i support your theory ,i just find the varying gain/losses of the first games (+-30 or so) to have a great effect in the place you get after let's say 100 games the theory works with many many games and by making the gain standard from the start
