Season 9 new systems what can Riot actualy do to improve the game experience ?

Hi all,

Since Riot announced their new system coming in season 9 i wanted to go deeper on the problems that they might want to solve and focus on.

The three major things that the league players are always complaining about are the meta balance which we dont talk about in this topic, the report system that seems useless in spite of what they might say about it when you send a ticket (" don't worry just use mute and the insta feedback report at the end of the game") and the matchmaking system giving the feeling of coinflip that we often have when we end up with some professional solo losers.

Their new system in season 9 is mainly focusing onto matchmaking and ranks so, to make a league matchmaking when you have smurfers, boosted, boosters, toxic players, rage quitters, feeders, trollers, inters, afk farmers, bots, cheaters and i have probably forgot some other categories. What can we really expect as improvements to come ?

If they want to make an actual system where the feeling of coinflip disapears they have to realize that when the doctor Elo created that ranking system it was mainly about traditional games like chest, and his calculations did not include all these kind of potential behaviours that we have to face in league of legend nowadays. So taking this in consideration they would probably have to either replace the whole ELO system by something else or at least adapt the calculations of it. Because right now the rank just does not seem to make any sence and we can clearly see it in game when the difference in levels between two players matching up in the same ELO can be so huge that it just makes the game a coinflip. "better adc wins" "better jungler wins" etc

Also what is important regarding the community behaviours is that any rules you can create, if there are no sanctions that makes people respecting the rules it doesnt matter how many you do how nicely crafted they are people will just not respect them until they have to. So by this extend if we had in the whole world what they have in Korea, meaning the ID and social security numbers linked to your accounts in league, when you get permaban its not like only one of your account is permaban and so who cares, but it is you who is permaban and that would be an actual sanction that people have to respect so that's where the report system would be more efficient (obviously for that to entirely work Riot would have to realize that they dont want to ban only the people who said "%%%%%%s" "jews" or "kys" in the chat but also hard inters, trollers, afks and feeders) but even more regarding the matchmaking system, it would exactly know who is smurfing or not and then you would not have to wait for the end of your champ select to go check on some website if the game is already lost or not because if some one in the other team is a diamond player smurfing or boosting someone in your gold game then you can only prepare an episode to watch for yourself while waiting/playing for the next 30 minuts or so of total disaster and misery to come to and end.

Does Riot really want to fight toxicity as much as they claim to ? according to the toxic behaviours they describe themselves it means they would have to ban and cut an important part of their player base in the end..

Anyways these are just some ideas, some impressions of mine. Please complete or correct me. I am simply a recent player on league who doesnt know much, forgive my english also, i am from the FIFA world champion Baguette country.
