why don't riot just based your mmr based on your kda? i feel like for most games when players are doing good i feel like if their team purposely trolls and feed it makes your mmr go down because of their actions... like cmon riot...

That would be unhealthy because people would stop playing to "preserver" their MMR. Everyone would just support to climb.

so it's fine for someone to purposely lose in your games and your MMR gets effected because of it? and im SAYING WITH THE FULL intentions not because they're bad. Riot needs to step up their bans like they should do the same thing OVERWATCH does in their rank were if a person purposely feeds they get banned for the whole season...this legit sounds like the best thing they can ever do to be honest.

Riot does one better. If they're caught intentionally feeding they can get banned forever.

They don't base in on KDA because that advantages some roles over others (ADC is much easier to get a high K/D on than tanks). It would results in people playing for KDA rather than for the win. Sometimes flashing to save your adc is the winning play because they then take out 3 of them, even though your score went down.

The thing is the system is setup to correct itself. If that person keeps playing the same way, they will drop, you will climb, and you'll never see them again. The annoying thing is seeing people "practice" new champions in ranked, and so people don't realize that they are only good with 1 champion, and you get the unfortunate experience of them trying out a champion that's not their main.
