Idea: non pre-made honors grant +1 LP, report -1LP

Just like the title says, honors grant +1 LP and a report (singular) grants -1LP. By singular I mean that this can only happen once meaning I cannot report everyone on my team to have them each lose 1 LP, it can only happen to one person.

Context: I just got out of a game (https://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/2829593410/233065116?tab=overview) where I really had to work my butt off because it was my promo match to get into Gold 4. My toplaner instantly locked Vayne top but I didn't say anything about it. Picks like these where people choose what I like to call "selfish" picks are a detriment to team gameplay. Even if the Vayne was a god-like Vayne I would still want a normal top laner played in the lane. Once the match began Vayne, laning versus Pantheon, immediately wanted to switch to face who I was facing, Vladamir. Being the good team mate I switched and went top lane. Pantheon already had 2 kills on me with the lane frozen in front of his tower. Essentially the situation put me in an uncomfortable position but I had to deal with it otherwise we would have a rage-quitter and have to 4v5. Vayne didn't play safe versus Vladamir and got ganked despite multiple pings from me and our jungler. Our jungler began to feed the enemy Pantheon as well as Ashe. At one point Vayne, who had fed multiple times already, said "I already gave up", which really bothered me since I did everything she asked me to for her to continue trying to play. Despite the setbacks Nami and I won the game for our team and we get to the lobby where the Vayne says "yay, I got to Gold 4". I too had go to Gold 4 through hard work and playing smart. I reported her for feeding but doing that really didn't do anything.

That led me to conjure up this disgusting idea but the concept could be quite useful. This would encourage people to do their best since they could receive additional LP and it will reduce negative behavior by losing LP.

Thoughts?

But what's your counter measure to someone that is playing to win, and let's say that their allies think they're feeding, and report them? Toxic people, and trolls, could report you and diminish your LP gains out of spite.

Lotus said what I was thinking. You could get spite reports and drop in rating because you took someone's golem camp at the 37 minute mark
