Bonus IP for higher grades

What if IP gain was based on your performance? For example, D equals to default value, C gives a 10% IP bonus, B = 20% bonus etc. Given how long it takes to buy all champions and runes, a small bonus that motivates to play better would be nice IMO. Thoughts?

I wouldn't mind something like this. I think the worry, however, was that it would influence how people play in a game. For example, a team that was ahead would not push advantages as hard due to the risks of possibly getting a lower grade if a mistake happens. Also fighting over CS.

That sounds like a pretty good idea in my opinion - gives totally casual players breathing room with default IP gains, gives others something to strive for - git gud, git lodsa money, and it'd even give the more skilled players a passive, well-deserved reward.

It'd be especially useful for those who want to reach MR6+ on certain Champions, because their skilled play would result in more Influence Points, which they could use to buy Champion Shards to disenchant for Blue essence, which they'd then use with the S-/S Tokens they've strived for and earned.

you can play well but still get a bad grade.

It's a good idea with the increasing amount of champions and runes and would be a great way for newer player to get more IP, but, imo, the default value should be at C or B, since D/C is usually a bad performance. per example : D=-10% ; C=Default ; B=+10% ; A=+20% ; S +30%.

Riot-"What a nice idea! Why do you want this tho?"

Community-" Well to have faster access to the champs and the runes you voluntarily made overexpensive"

Riot- "Does it mean I'll loose money?"

Community-" No, not rea..."

Riot- "I don't believe you. Forget that idea"

Community-" But why? it was already an error from you and a pretty bad idea to farm so much for nearly Nothing..."

Riot: DID YOU SAY THAT I MADE AN E.R.R.O.R?!?

Community-" Well, it's completely your faul...

RIOT: LALALALALALALALLALALA I CAN'T HEAR YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Gross. I have to play like an asshole to get an s. Once I get all the mastery tokens I can relax and play the game the way it should be played, I'd rather not have an incentive for players to get an s every single game. It does take too long to get ip in this game, but encouraging selfish play will only take the fun out of LOL.
