There should be a way to legitimately Leave a RANKED Lobby.

i.e. "Would you like to Leave this Ranked Lobby?" <Clicks Button> "Are you sure? Chat Log from Ranked Lobby will be sent to be reviewed. Your punishment for leaving may or may not be reversed based upon the findings of said review" <Clicks Yes> "Description of Situation" <Describes the nature of the situation>

That may work very well, the only think that could hold it back is not having enough man power at Riot. On the other hand, their automated system should by this point be able to pick out "____ or I feed" by now.

But... what if they say Fill or Feed?

Nilok1 votes

Either the system will be designed to be smart enough to detect that, the system detects 'fill' and 'feed' and freaks out, or it puts the person on a watch list for when they are reported to build a bigger case against them.

That or it just bans them since it does know any better.

i'd rather have a votekick option in conjunction with your idea. something like this:

the votekick would have to be a unanimous decision from everyone but the person who's being voted on. whenever a votekick is initiated, a behavioral log is sent to player behavior specialist. if they detect repeated toxic behavior from people in the chatlogs, they are punished accordingly.

everyone else remaining after the votekick is placed back into queue with no penalty. the votekicked person has to wait 5 minutes before re-queuing.

The system also needs to recognise duos/premades and not count them because theyll just click no

DuoQ should simply be removed from ranked. Ranked is meant to show individual skill, not coordination. That's why there's 5's.

Also, I think Riot is planning on releasing Team Builder Ranked, which could alleviate some of the champ-select stress.

Hey, at least it's not Heroes of the Storm. They let you have four-man teams in ranked-- it used to be five, but they started matching all 5-man premades with organized teams instead.

Yeah, good idea. Only problem is that rito doesn't think trolling is a problem in ranked. So they see no reason to implement any sort of fix for it.

I'm sure they know trolling happens in ranked, other wise no double lift..

LaceUp231 votes

Oh, they know it happens (how could they not?). I'm saying the problem is that they don't think trolling is a problem, not that it doesn't occur. In rito land it is perfectly fine to pick Annie as last pick, even though Mid has been called, run down mid lane feeding saying, "lulz itz jus a gayme nuub has fuun"...in a ranked game. But, it's not ok to ask this person to stop trolling, because "it ruins their fun". I've actually seen this exact situation take place. The person also had a match history full of doing the same thing, yet no punishment. I'm just waiting for the day that Lyte gets his head outta his ass and realizes that this is what causes the "toxicity" of the community. Because until it's addressed, League will continue to get more toxic, just as it has done since he started "fixing" it.

If their team doesn't want a second mid player, then it is reportable for "refusing to communicate".

Which is ignored. No reports other than verbal abuse, offensive language, or negative attitude ore even looked at.

That would require Riot to give a shit about their player base. It's okay, though. Keep buying the textures they release.

Agreed. It would make perfect sense.

Would need some tweaking to hash out the details but I really, really like this idea.

I'd rather people be able to leave the lobby without repercussions than realize too late they are on a team full of self-centered rejects and quit after the game has started and/or just feed to be obnoxious. After watching a lot of bronze and silver ranked games, the one thing that stands out the most is that they cannot learn how to move up when you have one or two people unwilling to be a team player.

So, what, if you leave lobby in a series and they determine there was a troll on your team do you magically go back into the series? What if you qualify for another series; does it cancel your current series?

ABlueQuaker3 votes

I personally wouldn't go back to ranked for most/the rest of the day if I was getting matched with people toxic enough to make me dodge a promo match.

Hellioning1 votes

That's kinda irrelevant. These are the kind of questions you need to ask for this system to make sense.

Cyribro1 votes

they should have an option to report the player then and there

Azure Hamster1 votes

Votekick means you can't do anything unusual. Like ADC with teleport. I've seen some really good ones, but that would get kickvoted as trolling.
