I play only normal games and, in the last 24 hours, 4 games I was part of have been remade. Basically, I wasted about 20 minutes of my free time without getting anything out of it. Can we at least get some IP, even if the game is remade?
ModWulf Helhammer2 votesI mean....how much would it be? The games end before like 6 minutes

I'd say it should be the same amount or at least half of a lost game. Like 30-50 IP per remade game.
Warlord Zudane1 votes3-6 minutes a game, and of the remakes I've seen 100% have been at 3 minutes. So I'd venture a guess that it's at least 2/3 at 3 minutes so maybe 4 minute average, plus queue time and champ select so maybe 5-6 minutes a game.
Yea, that would be about 20 minutes. Maybe doing an IP reward for consecutive remakes would be a fair solution. Maybe getting some IP reward for each remake after 2 in a row (in a short time period absolutely no games or logging out in between).
It really would be a small fix and would only handle cases like this where someone has multiple remakes in a row. That's not something anybody could really try to plan and avoid in matchmaking.
XIII Vanitas1 votesA compensation for repeated remades wouldn't solve the problem, imo, because you just need to play a full game between each remade one to get screwed.
I think Riot should put a minimum reward for playing a game, even if it ends before 7 minutes or is remade.
XIII Vanitas1 votesI don't know how much, but even 30 ip would be better than nothing.
Maiziea2 votesAFAIK the reason you're not gaining IP is because the game ends pre 7 minutes. even without /remake you won't get IP if you win pre 7minutes.
30 IP is way too much btw, I don't think it should be more than 10. the games only last 3 minutes and if you gain 30 IP for that you'll get more IP from doing a remake than from actually playing.
Normally you gain 18 IP + 2.3 IP per minute on the winning team and 16 + 1.4 per minute on the losing team. They should probably just remove the base IP from games that end pre 7 minutes and that should do the trick, you'll gain 7/4 IP per game if there's a remake. It's not much but I don't think people should be rewarded if there's a remake it's supposed to be pretending the game never happened after all. But then again I do want to get some IP if I play :P even if it's just a few minutes, so take my upvote.
XIII Vanitas6 votesIt's really not about the IP quantity, it's about getting a compensation for the time wasted between queue and champ select.
Maiziea1 votesI was just saying that 30 was way too much, I agree with you, I don't see many remakes, think 3 times in total now but I thought the exact same thing each time. For you or me it might not be about the quantity but for Riot it definitely will be, so I thought I'd just let you know 30 would be too much to ask for, and roughly explain why. You should be expecting around 10 if they actually do it.
XIII Vanitas1 votesEven 10 is a decent amount.
1wolfpack1 votesI like it, good idea [slayer-jinx-wink]
What Is Smite1 votesFor a second I thought the title Read LP but with a lower case L with a capital P, and was about to tell you to go fuck yourself...... but hey we all make mistakes take this upvote!
redfeenix1 votesI'm sure some people will find a way to abuse this, just get games remade and farm IP for days
XIII Vanitas1 votesIt's hard to abuse the system when one of them gets punished by the Leaver Buster.
warpenguin5551 voteseven just like 5 ip would be nice yeah
V The Support V1 votesStep One: Create Smurf account
Step Two: Level up smurf to 5
Step Three: Grab separate comp/laptop and queue with smurf account
Step Four: Afk on smurf account
Step Five: Remake and Profit free IP
Wouldn't really be worth it, but there is still room for abuse cases.
XIII Vanitas2 votesWait, you're telling me there might be someone who's willing to waste several hours of his life to level up a smurf account (that is eventually going to be banned, because of the Leaver Buster punishments) only to get 10 or 20 ip per game? That's kinda ridiculous.
V The Support V1 votesOr they could already have multiple accounts. What can I say other than that there are ridiculous people out there.
dim2a1 votesI personally don't care about IP by now (have enough sitting in my account for my purposes), but I strongly agree with the poster. Even something symbolic, like 10-20 IP would make it feel much better (and is low enough that abuse is very unlikely as it'd give less IP per time than a lost game)
