So I just hit level 30 and I always though the 'god trading' in the match lobby went like this.

God 1
God 2
God 3
God 4
God 5

God 1 can trade with 3, 3 with 5. God 2 can trade with 4.
This is probably terribly wrong and I'm just an idiot but I wanted to make sure anyway :)

Basically, once everyone has selected a god you enter a brief trading phase where you and a teammate can agree to switch gods provided you both have mastery for him/her. So, it doesn't matter what position someone is on the roster.

Do not be afraid ;)

Most of the players in bronze are worse than the ppl you play with in casuals most likely (at least I get worse players in silver league than I do in casuals) :P

They might be raging cry babies though. (Mute button OP)

Isn't it harder to win then :3?
I don't really know how to 'handle' ranked. Should I treat it like it's for the super pros and like 'warm up' with a few games? Or could I just jump in? I said to myself to always have 1 hour free before starting ranked, do those games last super long?

So can I only play that god when I have a mastery or only trade (yes I know you should always have a mastery on a god played in ranked but still)?

I wouldn't say it is harder to win, but there is less F6 just because the team isn't working (someone is BM and bringing the team down etc). So there is a lot more throws/comebacks when it comes to ranked (at least that is my experience).

In my recent games the league games are from 17 to 35 minutes, but I have played games that are 60+ so never play ranked if you are 100% sure you can play the entire game (but they are not longer than normal games) =)

I'm kind of like you I guess, where I do not want to play ranked unless I feel I'm playing my best (which I have not been lately). But today for example I just thought "screw it" and went 1-0-18 as support without playing the last few days, so I would just tell you to jump into it (even though I do not follow the tip myself). It is still a game, but when you play ranked you are playing to win. Just remember that and you should be good :P

When I play ranked, I usually warm up with a couple games and also with the gods that I think I might play in ranked, as I play arena league alot, so I usually practise geb, kuang, etc.
