Idea on how to redo ranked system
To fix the ranked system what are some reasons to not take their current system and eliminated promos between inner divisions plat 1-5, gold 1-5 (there would be no gold 2-3 promos) you keep the Gold 1 to Plat 5 promos, you could even make them 7 games. Then put a strict enforcement of banning kids who are Inting or feeding (even if not on purpose) by banning them from playing ranked unless they play 5 (or X number) normal games and if you are having a bad day you should stop playing ranked and play some normal games before going back to ranked, if you are constantly losing and feeding that much you are getting reported. Then Riot could use their system they currently have to grade games and apply it to the amount of LP lost or won for the game. As everyone has experienced some 4v6 games where one of your teammates is constantly killing themselves, however you win the game because you and the three other teammates play hard and well together however all Five teammates get the same amount of LP for the win, the grading system could take in account ward usage and all the other important stats they use for LCS ranked and every website can tell you to give you a set amount of LP for a win 15-25 S+ being 25 and S 20 A 18 ect, same would go for a loss if you went 20/4/30 and your teammate rage quit and runs around the map you shouldn't lose the same amount of LP as them, they should lose 25 and you should lose 15. What these changes would do is drastically change the cultural of ranked solo que. It would encourage kids to play the game seriously and work together as a team (assuming your grading was based off KP, ward score, ect you could have a bad game KDA and still get A or good score by helping team in other useful ways), it would also reduce toxic and rage in ranked by a large margin because you would be actually punishing the people creating the issue. Not the people reacting to the issue. I do not justify reacting to other people in any toxic way I just simply believe the way the system is now it is not designed to discourage the real issue which is the lack of teamwork/feed/trolling by teammates it just punishes people who get upset with them or react to it. Also it would make people take ranked more serious and if they were on tilt would force them to play some cool down games in Normal's where teammates would be less affected by their actions. Getting rid of the Inner divisions is also important because they are wasted games and create a toxic environment, the skill gap between a gold 3 and a gold 2 is not enough to warrant a 3 game series that is more difficult than previous games by design. A fluid system would actually reflect a persons score and help with match making at that moment. Most toxic comes from someone who got to 99 LP won the promos game and is 0-1 and your teemo top lane starts 0/3 and the kid is already upset he will have to replay 3 games just to get back to where he is over something he feels he cant control. Getting rid of that unnecessary stress would encourage kids to try harder to work together and fix the problem since they can lose less LP by warding and helping or making plays elsewhere not simply kda so they wouldn't avoid your lane ( also if a game ends before 20 minutes all teammates lose same LP to prevent kids from quiting to save a kda or lose less points early) and it would make climbing from gold to plat or silver to gold those series all that more exciting and challenging and the achievement so much better (which is the ultimate goal no one cares if your plat 5 or plat 1 its all about the boarder). What are some disadvantages to making these changes?
