How to raise your ELO 101 - A SP Community guide [Suggestion]

Source? Mine came from a GD thread that had a poll.

Mine came from Elobuff most likely. Sadly, I am a cheapskate and refuse to pay for Elobuff, so I can't confirm it right now. The statistic was something like games where your top gets FB have a 70% chance of victory.
The fact that Xypherous and most of their balance department seem to be pretty concerned about top lane and its snowball effect confirms that something is going on up there. http://na.leagueoflegends.com/board/show...7#28456567



Here's what I've found.

And since theres facts that when a teams solo top gets first blood the chance of winning is 88%.

That's from March, so the stat might be a bit off. Of course, that guy doesn't provide any actual source EITHER. So f'uck him.

So, I've seen that 88% chance thrown around a couple more times. Nothing actually useful. Nothing providing a source.
Yeah, so I'm still gonna go with top lane being snowbally and since top basically negates carries as their job, I'd say logic backs me up.

There we go. 88% chance.

Teams that get first blood against the top lane enemy champion go on to win 88% of the time
