RULES
How the contest works, how LP is scored, and what you can win.
These are the short rules — the full, binding Official Rules (eligibility, privacy, and all details) are here: Official Rules — GuessTheElo.gg's Summer Contest 2026. If anything on this page differs from the Official Rules, the Official Rules apply.
HOW IT WORKS
Every day during a contest we post a League of Legends gameplay clip on our channels. Watch the clip, then guess the player's rank in the comments — anywhere from Iron to Challenger. When the answer is revealed, your guess earns LP based on how close you were.
Contests run for two weeks at a time (the current period is always shown above the leaderboard). LP adds up across all of a contest's videos into one leaderboard covering both YouTube and TikTok — when the contest ends, the board locks and the winner is crowned.
All clips in the current contest are from the EUW server.
ENTERING A VALID GUESS
Comment a single, clear, full rank — like "Gold 2" or "Platinum 4." Tier-only guesses ("Gold") count as the lowest division of that tier (Gold 4).
You can change your guess any time before the reveal; only your most recent comment counts. Guesses posted after the reveal don't count. You can play on YouTube or TikTok — if you guess on both for the same video, only one guess is counted.
SCORING
The closer your guess, the more LP you earn — you don't need to be exact to score, and an exact hit pays a jackpot bonus. One step = one division.
| Steps off | LP earned |
|---|---|
| Exact | 110 |
| 1 | 98 |
| 2 | 92 |
| 3 | 84 |
| 4 | 73 |
| 5 | 61 |
| 6 | 49 |
| 7 | 38 |
| 8 | 28 |
| 9 | 20 |
| 10 | 14 |
| 11 | 9 |
| 12 | 6 |

| 14 | 2 |
| 15 | 1 |

PRIZE & WINNER
The player with the most LP when the contest closes wins a €20 League of Legends gift card (issued for your server region where available) and takes the crown on the leaderboard.
Ties go to the entrant with the most exact or closest single guesses, then to whoever reached the total first. The winner is contacted by a reply to their comment within 7 days and has 14 days to claim. We will never ask for account credentials or payment.
FAIR PLAY
One account per player. Duplicate accounts (including across platforms), bots, or any unfair method means disqualification. Scoring decisions and the determination of the correct rank are final.
PRIVACY
We only process your public username and avatar — to run the contest, display the leaderboard, and contact the winner — plus the winner's email, which is deleted once the prize is delivered. Nothing is sold or shared.
