Is there a reason bronze players don't have a banner?

Beside "lol you're too bad you don't deserve one"?

Bronze and unranked currently have no banners, so Legaue is essentially saying "Even if you did your best and were placed in B5 or B1, your efforts don't justify a banner."

I just think Bronze should have a banner. It won't have any negative effects on gameplay.

But for some reason everyone is against a bronze banner because they don't deserve one apparently

Well cupcake, sometimes trying your best doesn't mean you earned anything. I'm sick of people thinking they need "participation" trophies. If you want something, EARN IT. You don't earn bronze. You get it by simply being unable to earn anything else.

Because the border is supposed to be an achievement and, as low as it is, getting to Silver can be counted as an achievement. Bronze in the other hand you just have to play 10 ranked games and it's given out to you just for attendance.

This discussion reeks of entitlement.

Cause borders are a reward achievement, and they don't wanna give one out for just playing 10 games (since that's all you have to do to get placed and 70% get bronze)

Instead of giving people participation trophies we should give them 3rd 2nd or 1st place trophies.

oh wait nvm that's not how it works

Because a single person can just:

  • afk after reaching level 6
  • trolls every game by going ADC Singed, etc.
  • intentionally feeds every game while typing "y so serious? lets juz have fun!"

...in all 10 provisional games in order to get to Bronze elo, so the banner is so not worth it. It's like giving free cookies to spoiled brats.

Because everyone, their dogs and their mother is in bronze.

Banners are supposed to be something to dress on your e-boner if you haven't noticed it by now.

That's why no banners for bronze or unranked.

It's like saying I should get more than somebody in S5 for being in S3, it just doesn't make sense and it's far too intensive. Bronze is Bronze, just like Silver is Silver, you're not anymore special or worse until you manage to get into the next tier.

It's not that they don't deserve one, it's just that they obviously don't care about their rank if they're in bronze so there's no real reason they should be rewarded.
