most asocial players get best grades

I noticed that the players who play the most asocial get rewarded an S most often, especially in aram mode.

This game is promoted as a team sport, but in practise the ones who teamwork the least get the most rewards; the ones who last hit everyone else's kills, take all the healths, play only for their personal gain (letting own team get underfed) and in general don't give a crap about the 4 others on their team. They're not doing anything reportable but (maybe even more so cuz it isn't reportable behaviour) it is frustrating for the ones that do try to teamwork, play their best and expect the same from others in their team. And because they get rewarded they don't see that this isn't what teamwork is supposed to be about. This way, the grade system is only supporting asocial behaviour from players.

Are you complaining about ranking or the last hit? Because those two are two separate issues.

If the last hitting was the issue; then that has always been the case, as people use the term ks - kill steal- a lot. Players want the record of getting a kill but in this game, how can one with the last hit system? That is why junglers get hate for staying in lane too long (aside from the exp leach) and supports when they get the kill accidentally. The last hit has always been the case that stops teamwork, but it is a bit more mild then I suggest in context.

If it is the asocial players get better grades/scores, then have you ever thought of the fact that they pay attention to the game and do not care what is going on in chat and are not distracted, thus performing better? There have been dozens of times where my typing to my team cost me a death because my q w e r were posted in chat and were not commands for my champion.

Also, the scores/grades are a test to show one's performance of the champion, not their communication skills. A player who did not follow up on a gank when being ganked by an ally do not get points deducted because of that.

Things to consider when arguing this asocial players and better scores.
