Win Lane Lose Game - How Do We Fix Ranked?

Please, for the love of whatever higher power exists, if you play ranked stop picking first time champions. My LP cannot handle it anymore.

Real talk though, can we potentially address what I think is one of the biggest issues with the game right now? The fact that normal games exist yet half the time in your ranked game you have to suffer a first timing player who goes 1/9 on whatever champion they're first timing.

Perhaps in season 9 they can introduce some kind of system that rewards people in ranked for playing champions they have game time on. Example; You pick a champion that you have say, 200,000 mastery points with. You win the game, the game rewards you 2-3 extra LP for playing a champion you've played extensively in the past.

4fun players are ruining ranked, I, nor anybody I know, has never had this little enjoyment out of the game. I don't know if it's just an NA thing or game-wide thing but ranked is not where you go to first time pick something you've never played.

I would donate every cent in my bank account right now if Riot would acknowledge this is an issue and work towards deterring this kind of toxic ranked environment, where in over half the games you play there's at least one if not multiple people just first timing random champs, who then feed an absolute buffet, then spend the rest of the game hard inting because they're useless.

And before you say "Yeah but the enemy team has just a likely chance of that happening to them as well" - I know, and let me ask you; Do you have fun even when you win? NO, you don't. Losing feels 4x as bad as winning feels good, because how can you have fun winning a game when it's literally just because that player is on the other team, and not yours? I cannot honestly recall the last game I had where I felt like I won through hard fought effort, instead of just getting handed a free win because the other team has someone going full ape mode on theirs

You've said it before Riot, one player has more influence to lose the game than four other players trying to win, the fact you've said it is great, but the changes aren't enough. Please stop focusing on LCS, new game modes, flashy skins and reworks and start focusing on the fact that the player base is beyond rotten to its core and something needs to be done. I appreciate the new content, I'm sure everyone does, really and it's good, but the game is bleeding. It isn't dying, but it's without a doubt hurting. League has not only lost several huge streamers it continues to tank in twitch views daily, people don't enjoy it anymore, because the game is toxic beyond any reasonable point.

Of course you can't remove toxicity entirely, never, but it's become far too potent. I seriously think doing the above, just implementing a reward system that encourages and pushes people to play what they know and are good at in ranked, and give them an actual reason to play champs they know how to play but might find boring, would be a massive step in the right direction of fixing the abysmal, mind numbing, depressing state of playing ranked.
