Performance should impact Lp amouts

Ricky Spanish DC··2 votes·741 views

Why doesn't your in-game performance for ranked influence the amount of Lp you gain or lose per game- this would fix a Lot of problems. For example, if you do well, and get a large amount of kills, but your team feeds, you would lose less Lp. This just seems logical to me.

Edit: Performance isn't just kills, I'm not saying that if you go ham for kills, than just play super passive, that you should not lose any Lp if you lose games, I am just saying that people who feed should lose more Lp than someone who goes 7 and 1 and contributes to the team.

So the sacrificial Junglers gain less LP, Supports like me who will die to keep my ADC from being shutdown will gain less LP.... seems like a great thing you want to add to the system.

Bro I'm a support main too- im not saying that kda should determine your ranking, and sacrificing yourself for your adc to live is usually a smart play, however, if you feed, you probably should lose more Lp, and generally, if you do well, and get a decent amount of assists, than you should lose slightly less Lp in losses. Performance already matters in placements, so why not in standard ranked games?

Of course winning is the most important thing, but you shouldn't be punished too much if the rest of your team plays awfully and you play well, if you lose, you would still lose Lp, just less than if you did badly.

what rank are you

why does it matter what rank he is? the point is if he is playing well but the game is to the point he can't carry why should he be punished with a minus 15-20 when he could be 9-4-8? i've had many games where i was playing and one lane just couldn't keep up and tilted and we lost after i stomped lane and i know you probably had it too why can't riot make it so we don't lose as much for us playing well and lose more for us getting smash.

ok listen that is not true at all i had 3 accounts plat last season ranging from plat 2 too plat 5. i this account silver 4 even with a 60% win rate took almost 60+ games to climb so i think you are wrong

except no one can make a system with such a high level of AI.

micro play is undetectable, rotation is undetectable, hell if i dont get the last hit on the tower then the system wont even give a shit about me doing 90%of the dmg on the tower and the credit goes to the fucking minion.

ok.

My team is feeding 3-7. I am 3-0.

Now: I go out, try to help team, and I might end up 3-4 and lose. Or I can snowball even further and win the game. Your idea: I go AFK and lose less LP because I'm 3-0.

Because there is no objective way of judging "performance". If say toplaner got constantly ganked by both enemy jungler and midlaner he will fall behind, all he can do in this situation is holding his ground and falling behind as little as possible, but he still contributed to the win in the way he could given the circumstances.

I'm silver, but that is irrelevant. The point I'm trying to make is that in placements, your performance influences where you at placed (and who knows if it influences your mmr). What I'm NOT saying is that the more kills you get, the more Lp you get, I just believe that players who do better (Riot is a big enough company where they could probably figure out a formula for this) get slightly more Lp for wins, and lose less for losses. This would only be a difference of about 5 Lp or something around there. The point is, if you to 10 and 0 in a solo queue game, and one player on your team trolls or feeds and causes your team to lose, you should be penalized less that if you went 2 and 8.

Heres the thing Ricky, Say there is no troll on your loseing team, you go 10/0 because the jungler and support get you kills, but they die in the process of getting you out. Is it fair they get punished more than you? You need to think of ALL it can effect.

Your saying KDA shouldn't determine this. but feeding INVOLVES YOUR KDA. Whos to say what feeding is? going 0/20/32, Still fed them 20 kills, 0/5/4?
