US representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez achieves silver rank in League of Legends.

The US representative for New York's 14th congressional district Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has reached Silver IV in League of Legends.

Ocasio-Cortez took the Twitter to announce her new rank- an achievement to be proud off - is an improvement on her bronze rank from 2018.

However, it turns out that she is not the highest-ranked player in the US congress.

"Thought it was cool making it to Silver. But today I found out Rep. @JoshHarder is ranked PLATINUM," said Ocasio-Cortez.

Josh Harder - another US representative - is ranked Platinum. Harder himself took to Twitter, offering a bit of advice for Congress.

“Congress might work better if more battles were fought on Summoner’s rift instead of committee hearings,” said Harder.

In October, Ocasio-Cortez was one of several politicians to openly slam Activision Blizzard for its treatment and banning of pro-Hearthstone player Chung “Blitzchung” Ng Wai.

The politicians claimed the company should not be “stifling” free speech for the benefit of keeping China on side.

Riot Games’ MOBA hit eight million concurrent players in August 2019, and it celebrated its 10th birthday in October.
