Winning / Losing in low-elo is a crap-shot and shouldn't be rewarded / punished

Getting those 3 wins for the TF event should make me feel like getting out there and playing, but realistically it makes me not want to play at all. Event types like this really suck because at the casual level, it's extremely hard as an individual to actually "win" a game, or even as a team

I don't claim to be good, or being held back by my team. What I'm saying is when i go 10/0 top lane, but enemy Zed went 3/0 and made our mid-laner rage-quit, enemy jungler is getting fed, our bottom lane is getting 4v2'd because our mid pressure is gone and starts getting toxic... I try to help the situation but it's either extremely difficult or impossible. If everybody would relax and not leave the game we could have just hunted the fed champions then picked up objectives when the enemy power is off the map. But that of course does not usually happen...

So why the hell do they get their Win token and bonus IP and we don't get sh*t ? IMO the Win or Loss doesn't even tell half the story of a game with 10 people and 30-40 minutes average. Rewards of any kind for Winning or Losing should not EXIST in any format except pre-made 5 v 5 with full organized teams... not DUO, not 5 friends vs. 4 friends and a random... 5 V 5 which is the only point where you can say "we really lost this game" and not "I tried my best but #soloqueue"

So... You want a pvp oriented game to not reward winners? I think you should go play something else then.

apparently you're not really much of a PvPer, because in 10+ years I've seen plenty of games that don't have points or rewards and they always have better communities and feel more fun win or lose
