Currently i find myself wanting to play ranked, but i know when i played ranked i tend to get rather upset due to the fact Im "staking" my LP over that game. So then you would say "ok" then go play normal's well, currently for me being Plat IV when i Que up for a normal game I'm placed with all silvers, golds and maybe 1 or 2 more plats. I want to be able to play at my skill level as i find the game much more enjoyable, but id rather not risk my LP at some times.

Solution? Well i feel you should a separate Que, like non-LP ranked games where the games are counted like normal's but only place with teammates of equal skill like ranked.

Benefits -Able to test if a certain champion is up to your ranking skill level. -Able to play (In my eyes) a more competitive/enjoyable game without worrying about my LP -Good if you take a break from league and when u come back, you can practice first. Then risk your LP -Would reduce the amount of feeders in real ranked as people would test champions in test ranked or When coming back from league would play test ranked to get them selves back up to par with there rank.

Sidenotes -This does not affect your ranked stats in any way shape or form. -You will not lose or gain LP -It will treated just like a normal game, only the accurate team building of ranked.

You can only have one tier difference to play with eachother first off. Meaning a plat can't play with a silver, or bronze, only gold or diamond. Just as gold cant play with bronzies.

AND if you had low enough elo you'd be dropped from plat to gold.

There is already such a queue. It's called normal draft. If you're only going to use the queue for testing new champions, what makes you think that the other 9 players are going to be playing at their "ranked skill level"?
