- Iron–Bronze: 2 divisions a day
- Gold: 1.5 a day
- Diamond: 0.4 a day
- Express: about 1.6× faster
A League of Legends boost isn't timed in hours but in divisions — and a division in Bronze is not a division in Diamond. This guide gives you the real delivery times from the pace our checkout uses, tier by tier: every full tier, the climbs people order most (like Gold to Emerald), placements and net wins, what Express changes, and why the top of the ladder takes longest.
Short answer: our boosters average about 2 divisions a day in
Iron and Bronze, 1.5 in Gold, 1 in Platinum,
0.75 in Emerald and 0.4 in Diamond. A full Gold tier takes 2–3 days, Gold IV → Emerald IV
6–7 days, and all five placement games about 24 hours. Express (+25%)
cuts each estimate to about 1/1.6 of the standard time.
Key takeaways
- Low elo is fast, Diamond is slow. The same 100 LP takes several times longer at the top, and the estimate accounts for it tier by tier.
- The pace is the checkout's own — this page and a real quote read the same per-tier speed.
- Express puts the order on the faster track.
- Duo runs on your schedule: every game needs you online.
- Master and above are custom orders, quoted by hand.
Delivery per tier
A full tier is four divisions (IV → the next tier's IV). The struck figure is the regular list price when a sale is on.
| Tier | Full tier | Price |
|---|---|---|
 Iron | about 2 days | |
 Bronze | about 2 days | |
 Silver | 2–3 days | |
 Gold | 2–3 days | |
 Platinum | about 4 days | |
 Emerald | 5–6 days | |
 Diamond | about 10 days |
Common climbs
| Climb | Standard | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Iron IV → Silver IV | about 4 days | |
| Silver IV → Gold IV | 2–3 days | |
| Gold IV → Platinum IV | 2–3 days | |
| Gold IV → Emerald IV | 6–7 days | |
| Platinum IV → Emerald IV | about 4 days | |
| Emerald IV → Diamond IV | 5–6 days | |
| Diamond IV → Diamond I | 7–8 days |
Your own climb — any start, any target, your server and roles — is priced and timed live on the Solo/Duo boost page; the rank-up calculator compares it with climbing at your own win rate.
What sets the pace
- The tier. In low elo a booster wins most games, so divisions go quickly; from Emerald up every division is a harder climb.
- The number of divisions. The estimate adds the time for each division in turn, so a climb that crosses into Emerald slows down once it gets there.
- Express (+25%) moves the order onto the faster track.
- Duo (+40%) means every game is played with you, so your evenings set the pace.
- The first login. If your Riot account asks for a code, the booster requests it once in the order chat.
Placements, net wins and coaching
| Service | Pace | Typical order | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Placement Matches | up to 5 games / day | All 5 placement games: about 24 hours | from |
| Ranked Net Wins | ~3–5 net wins / day | 10 net wins: 2–3 days | from |
| 1-on-1 Coaching | scheduled around you | Booked at a time that suits you | from |
Placements only exist after the January reset — 5 games per queue, no LP lost — so they're quick wherever you start. Net wins count wins over losses at your current tier, which suits a push towards a promotion.
Why Diamond takes longest
Three things stack up at the top. LP gains shrink as you meet stronger players, every lobby punishes mistakes, and the rules tighten — Diamond decay starts after 28 banked days, duo partners must be close in rank, and from Master every dodge costs a full loss. A booster still climbs about 0.4 of a division a day there, so a full Diamond tier takes about 10 days. Master, Grandmaster and Challenger are custom orders, priced by LP, server and the stage of the season — the how to reach Master guide covers that last step.
How soon does a booster start?
A paid order goes straight to our job board and the boosters' alert channels, and the first verified booster who accepts it starts — you get an e-mail when that happens, and the order page shows the booster and the chat. On a piloted order the booster plays in offline mode with a VPN on your server. We don't promise a pickup time we can't measure: the order page shows the real median once there are enough orders to calculate it.

FAQ
Common questions
How long does a LoL division boost take?
It depends on the tier: our boosters average about 2 divisions a day in Iron and Bronze, 1.5 in Gold, 1 in Platinum, 0.75 in Emerald and 0.4 in Diamond. A full Gold tier takes 2–3 days; Platinum IV to Emerald IV takes about 4 days.
How long does Gold to Emerald take?
Gold IV to Emerald IV is eight divisions — 6–7 days at our boosters' pace, or 4–5 days with Express (+25%).
How long do LoL placement games take?
All five placement games take about 24 hours at up to five games a day; ten net wins take 2–3 days.
Why does Diamond take so much longer?
Games are harder and LP gains smaller, so a booster climbs about 0.4 of a division a day there — a full Diamond tier takes about 10 days. Master and above are custom orders.
