LP Loss reduction

HO0K··3 votes·680 views

Hello, So i am not the greatest league of legends player but i got GOLD 4 last season, I understand its impossible to please everyone in where they get placed and who they get matched with, but i believe in unique and some how quite frequent situations there should be compensation. When you are in a game and lets say you just flat out are missing a teammate, its pretty terrible, or if your team demands to intentionally feed. I feel if these can be recognized sources of a loss then the rest of the team should not just lose there traditional 25 LP for something this sad. I feel like for doing this the punishments should be much more harsh, and what i posted this for is that we should also have perhaps an LP loss reduction. in lower tears things like this are much more common as everyone is aware of and this just should not be an issue that separates you from your goals. I know everyone has to fight through these problems but if it can be resolved than why keep it going. Also maybe having Champion score end of game influence your LP loss or gain. Just an idea. Any thoughts?

I am one of his friends but he does have a point. Also I do like the idea of Champion score influencing LP Gain and loss because if someone were to feed intentionally in the game they will have a really bad champ score after the match thus making them lose a lot more LP making them less likely to want to feed and ruin the experience for everyone in the game.

I totally agree.

I'm relatively new to League (started in Jan. 2016) and since I've started ranked play, this question runs through my mind constantly. I feel like I always leave it all out on the field (or Rift) and have multiple A+ performances even in a loss. I'm of the notion that although losing is losing, in League I find myself losing because of a few bad apples on my teams.

I think we can all agree that sometimes losses are fair, and you just got outskilled/played, but more often than not losses come about as a result of a rogue teammate or simply a disconnect. In sports betting a team with an injured player is given a handicap--why can't the same principle be applied to League? I keep getting the short end of the stick and I know i'm better than Bronze IV.
