If you don't know how to play a champ at ranked level, and are able to buy ELO with RP...that's going to get a LOT of people angry.

I can imagine how it would go:

9bleach: Hey guys, this is my first ranked game and daddy moneybucks just let me use his MasterCard to buy 2600 ELO!
Calin: Omfg...uninstall.
Calin: GTFO and unistall NOW.
PieLover314: For the love of god, it took me three months and no sleep to get to this elo, please dodge.
9Bleach: It's ok guys, I just bought Rumble and 25% worth of Cooldown Reduction Runes.
9bleach: I'm gonna spam my Q until they surrender from my awesomeness!
Calin: Go hang yourself.
PieLover314: I'll buy you some rope.
9bleach: It's ok guys, I'm going AD so the overheating doesn't affect me!



Yeah....I can see how buying ELO with RP could backfire.
