Awarding LP

Okay, this is just a complete shot in the dark, BUT....

Being that there is the new ranking system for your personal performance ( S, A, B, C, D), what if there where LP rewards for EVERY match you play, such as anything lower than a B- is a deduction and anything higher would be a reward ranging from 5 - 25 like if you were to either win or lose a match? And the only way you can "Rank Up" would be to actually attain the wins in the allotted number of games for your series.

Would this lessen the number of people stuck in "ELO Hell"?

And those who actually do well would rank up in due time?

It would make the ranking up process possibly slower but due to the sometimes "frailty" of internet connection and people just spatting "Who cares about ranked anyway?", wouldn't they drop in rank while not punishing people that play to rank up?

I do realize there ARE holes in this plan, but no system is without some faults, and I do not pretend to be some person who cracked the code on League of Legends ranked system... but seeing as the game is forever growing,....

Would this be possible without breaking the game? Thought?

I like the overall idea. I hate getting into an MMR pit, losing 22 lp and only gaining 16 on wins and you can do amazing in game and still feel like it's gaining you nothing, but then you get dragged down by a troll/afk what have you, and boom youre out over 20 points no matter how well you did. Performance on grades should have a small swing on lp gain. It would also prevent someone from just lucking into higher elos

If they implement that all I'm going to do is farm and ks during fights

See, but if the enemy team gets fed early game, and you aren't fed enough to do anything, you'll start dying rapidly and start losing lp... It should be based on how you do in lane and if you get killed by someone with more than 1000 gold earned than you, it shouldn't count against you.
