People should get demoted/promoted according to their skills, and not team.

The problem about climbing is that its so hard when u can't carry a whole team by urself, and if they are bad, they make u lose as they would usually do, so, i think good players shouldn't get this tbh, so creating a LP reward scaling based on player's performance, for example, people with low qualifications like "C+" or "D-" get demoted easier and faster, so they don't get matched with serious players, same as trolls, and in the other hand, honored players climb faster, so even if ur team loses, if u did well, u still win some LP, or lose less, just to make this game better and fair.

If you can't carry a whole team by yourself, you do not deserve to climb. You are average at your level and it means you are at your place. Improve faster than the people in your elo to keep climbing.

Pretty sure Faker couldnt carry a whole team by himself in like d1 tho

Who cares about D1 it's the top 0.5%. At this level soloQ doesnt mean anything. This game has been designed to be played as a team of 5 players.

Actually he can. I watched his stream after he got demoted to D1 for inactivity when he was at MSI. In diamond 1 he solocarried easily and went 15/0 or so for several games in a row.

Sure he can carry by making good plays and helping his team, but he cant hard carry 4 brainless people against 4-5 fed enemies. But you probably dont need to be able to do that to climb anyway, so.. ye.

From my perspective it was a solocarry. He had more kills than the whole enemy team combined. But in Diamond 1 there are no brainless people.

Another fact: When faker went to brazil for MSI he played soloqueue. He got his brazil account from unranked into challenger with a 92% winrate. Maybe he can't carry every game, being able to solocarry 92% of the games to victory is good enough.

This would promote me playing extremely cautious to preserve my score.

The most common scenario in a loss is the other two lanes amd jungle feed.

Now you are getting turret dove by two to three fed people and your score plummets. There is nothing you can do against their massive gold and experience lead.

Your score will plummet or you will afk in base.

It is a good idea with poor practical application.
