Team based ranking is backwards thinking RIOT! Do you even play your own game anymore? Don't you see that team based ranking is screwing over good players? The afks, the whinny little kids, the trolls, the disconnects, etc. < All that plays a role in the outcomes of games and those outcomes affect our ranking!

Why should I lose a game when another player who doesn't belong in ranked gives the enemy 15+kills in the first 20 minutes making it extremely difficult to win??

I don't know of any other game that uses this type of broken ranking system. Are you simply implementing this so people keep playing trying to reach an unreachable higher rank? GIVE US INDIVIDUAL RANKING FFS!

It's been brought up. The concern we have with anything that modifies LP gain/loss that isn't 'your team won/didn't win' is that it can distort player behavior in game at the expense of their team. At present if you're trying to maximize your odds of gaining LP the best thing you can do is whatever increases your team's chances of winning the most. If you add LP incentives to personal champion grades however you end up with some situations where players are encouraged to try and maximize their grade at the expense of their team. That leads to cases like players refusing to defend because they think the game's already over and they don't want to get any more deaths, players farming to try and increase their CS for grade purposes instead of just winning the game, players going for repeated kills on weak enemy champs instead of just taking an objective etc.

I don't know who "we" are, but based on the downvotes on every single thread of this type, I don't this "we" want it.
