How to improve soloQ - an idea.

Hello there. I have got an idea how to improve League point system in soloQ, that makes loosing games less frustrating and punishes trolls even in won games.

The first problem: Sometimes You got a weaker players in Your team. You feel they dont deserve their rank, or just troll, or just weaker day. So in effect You are loosing game. Second problem: Even when You are good player and you want to win, You should take picks that are able to hipercarry (I mean smurfing stuff). Third problem: You are winning a game, with troll/afker inside. He is making problems to Your team, but he still get LP. Its unfair.

Solution "A": A program that compares all statistics like CS, turrets, inhis, drakes, KDA to other players of this champion on similar division (Same like with a rate of playing S+, S, S- etc). Then if it was average it gives certain amount of points for win, and certain amount of points for lose. THEN. If you were above average, the number of points for win is increased, and number for lose is decreased.

But its not all. Now the fun begins. Give to every player a mandatory assessment system of your teammembers. From 1 to 5. After every game, everyone must rate his comrates with a number. Every "1" and "2" are negative points, "3" is neutral, "4" and "5" is positive points. Every "1" is -5 points, every "2" is -2 points, "3" =0, "4" =+2, and "5" = +5 Now to do not abuse this system: When your calculation from Solution A was above average, your negative points are not counted. Same, when Your Solution A was belove average, your positive points will not be counted.

An example. You lost match, so everyone from team got -20 LP as basic.

Your team Top - Solution A average, rates: 3, 3, 4, 2 = total points -20LP Mid - Typical midkid who is feeding hard, and very toxic. He was belove average Solution A and rates: 1, 1, 2, 1 = total points -37 LP Jungler - tryhard. This is the guy who wants win in every price. Silent, skilled player. Solution A above average and rates: 5, 5, 5, 4 = total points -3 LP (-20 basic + 17 from rates) ETC.

To do not abuse assessment - You cannot rate your premade. To do not abuse assessment - You can give each rate (1:5) only once. So when you gave 1 to your troll, you cannot give another 1 to any of members.

I wait for Your opinions And invite to discussion.

Right now, the matchmaking is a lot about the positions and picks. That guy who gets autofilled will probably underperform and feed, the team looses because of a player feeding. Even though that player is not exactly bad. He still belongs to the elo he is playing in and in the next game, he might get his main champion and position and perform exceptionally.

I don't think there are too many players being at a higher elo than they deserve. It's just because people perform differently in different roles and on different champios. That's why i don't think your suggestions will improove the matchmaking
