Interesting Concept for A Remodel of How Ranked Works
What if, just bear with me here, WHAT IF, you could get to Gold 5 before you had to worry about how your teammates play? Like bronze and silver was nothing more than a proving ground for players before they TRULY played competitively with their team against another?
Lets just sit here and think about how it could work, eh?
Already, you are rated on how you play your champion with your peers correct? Now imagine it uses the same system that checks your CS/per minute, KDA, and vision placement to give you a rating that tells you can go on to the next rank one step at a time after checking it against all other players in your meta and having a baseline?
It would completely eradicate the whole "Muh Team" complainers. It would also make trolls completely unable to impact other peoples ranking in the lowest tiers of ranked. It would also encourage players to self improve on their individual play to earn their way up. It would reduce toxicity to an extent, and best of all. Once you hit gold 5 it would immediately switch to how you perform with your team and win games.
This kind of change would only affect those in the lowest elo's, it would eradicate so many issues those players complain about and introduce a new system into league that would improve those players basic play. And lets face it, even gold players lack some fundamental skills, cause if they didn't, they'd be higher up.
As a bonus it'd be great to see the results after each game and use those stats to see where you need improvement.
(This is nothing more than a dumb idea that popped into my head reading the low elo complaints, mostly its just so people can stop blaming their team whether its their teammates or not. I definitely don't expect this to be taken all that seriously, just an interesting idea. Leave your own thoughts down below. I'll respond.)
