there are some teams that deserve it an its a tad unfair in my opinion that we can only pick one person per game to get the honor

id also like to see enemies honor back some of them are not bad people an deserve it

I love honoring the player with good in-game behavior (sportsmanship), even if it's a person on the enemy team. Sometimes I don't want to honor anyone on my team for reasons but an enemy who played well would deserve my honor.

Being able to honor everyone makes honor meaningless. It comes back to the old system. Honor has no value if it's not limited.

So no

What if you can earn 2 honor points per game, but can save up to 10. You can still honor 1 person per game as normal, but if you encounter a really good group you can dip into the reserves to honor more people.

so it would not solve a problem of op. You could still say that you encountered 3 times in a row a team that deserved everyone being honored and than you are limited.

People always bitch around the changes that they can't honor enemies anymore or everyone in the team but i just always think: You can honor them with words? Like pay respect in the chat, thank them in the lobby after the game. All that honor gives are just some loot at certain level. Old system did nothing. And by all seriousness loot isn't something big important.

If you REALY wanna gift the people something there is still the gift option after game (i think it is still there isn't it?). And saying "thank you, well played, good game, good job or go more into detail" after the game can mean a little bit more as just clicking on an honor option. Own words can describe far more as the 3, 4 types of honor you can try to spread.

Finish the 1st game with a 10 honor reserve 10 honor - 4 teammates = 6 honors left in reserve

6 honors + 2 for finishing 2nd game = 8 honors 8 honors - 4 teammates = 4 honors left

4 honors + 2 for finishing the 3rd game = 6 honors 6 honors - 4 for teammates = 2 honors left

2 honors + 2 for finishing the 4th game = 4 honors 4 honors - 4 for teammates = 0 honors left

You could successfully honor 4 teams back to back to back to back starting with a full reserve. If you find yourself with a 5th team in a row where everyone deserves honors, then buy a lottery ticket or something. This would effectively solve the OP's problem.


Yes, you can honor someone with words, but actions showing your gratitude go further, even if they're simple actions. Gifts are a bit much (seriously, is that feature ever used except with premades for giveaways?), and so people ask for being able to give more honor.

I still prefer honoring just one guy similar to how Overwatch does it with he player of the game i believe. It just shows more value. And the answer to this is not that riot lets everyone hnor everyone again and me just honoring 1 guy all the time. Ofcourse i also have games i have it hard to decide who to honor if it is that everyone is kinda honorable or everyone kidna not. But old systemw as so meaningless that every high elo player just sees the new honor system as a progress of value and importance.

Ok, than it is not 3 teams in a row but 5. problem still occurs at some point. I can also say buy a lottery ticket with one team there everyone deserved honors.

Yes, you can honor someone with words, but actions showing your gratitude go further, even if they're simple actions.

actions? What do you do big as just clicking on an image? a gratitude of writing a small paragraph or small talk at the end shows less gratitude as the option riot gives? like hell, you can even write the same things to them: You can write tiltproof and chill, leadership and strategy or teamplayer and friendly to them. All whats diffrent not everyone gets farther in their honor progress or have a honor badge at the start of a new game.

Funny thing is: you could talk ingame with your mates and say you think everyone is honorable and divide the task that each player honors one, so every 5 of you gets 1 honor and a badge (teammates should not honor themself as it needs 2 honors of teammates for a badge. in a group of 3-5 well, not everyone gets a badge for next game, same with people under honor lv3 ofcourse but that is not that much of a deal).

yea honoring opponments will still be not sovled butagain you can write with them, what they did good, what they missed etc. And riot is kidna right as you have nto as much insight to the enemy to justify a complete honor option. Giving them farter honor for the system cause you think he was good while he could have been a complete douchebag in the enemy team by flaming everyone and stealing buffs, farm, kills or going afk/warning mates to go etc: Where should you know what the enemie does the whole time? would be funny to see such guys with badges in the next game or not decreasing in honor as they always get honorable from enemies while their teamates have to suffer. so here is the simple advantage of just honoring with words that you still can encourage them for goodactions, even if they lsot the game. AND see realy fast how this guy performs as a person, if he flames his mates and shows no respect or is a friendly guy.

Either way there is always more gain in the new system then the old because the new system's rewards actually gives players a reason to honor.

Otherwise they'd just hit "not this time" every single game..

...like everybody did when they already hit honor 5.

I guess that banking honors would make sense. But let's say you skip your honoring because you don't feel anyone on your team deserved it. By skipping it for a game or 4, you willingly picked not to honor anyone and therefore spent honors that way. By banking it now, this simply means you "saved" them for later and that means now honor tokens are worth less if you can consider them as a saved currency instead of something that you have to spend immediately or lose it until you earn it again.

I don't agree with 10 tokens. If you get 1 now, it should be 5 max for you and only one per enemy team. The reason why you shouldn't get more than one honor max for the enemy team is because you're not playing for the enemy team. If you want to honor one enemy opponent for doing something right that brought their team to victory and you recognized it (like a smite steal, that assassin killing your primary target and your team falling on your ass, etc.), then sure. But wanting to honor everyone - that would imply that you had to actually pay attention to what the enemy team was doing equally as yours or more. And that would imply that you were not really interested in playing to win for your team, if you were distracted in such a way.

To further this enemy honoring discussion, it's very likely that the categories you could honor an enemy for, wouldn't be the same as for your own team.

Me no like idea of reserve honor..

So we shouldnt honor everyone despite the fact that multiple people might deserve it. Nice

Wolfeur1 votes

If we can honor everyone, honor becomes meaningless.

It's basically Honor inflation

Nyarlathοtep2 votes

Again, what if everyone deserves an honour? I've come across many games that everyone deserved one.

Wolfeur1 votes

Well, that's fucking too bad!

A lot of people deserve 1 million dollars, but giving it to them would ruin the economy. Don't you get it?

If everyone can be honored, then honoring means nothing!

Nyarlathοtep

Oh so money (something that is crucial in living in real life) is the same as honour (which is digital and doesnt affect you in any way or form). Cool comparison you got there.

Wolfeur1 votes

Being crucial or not is irrelevant. Generating illimited honors would destroy the point of it. The mecanism is the same.

Nyarlathοtep

Yes it is. There is a reason why money are limited. Unlike honours where they dont really affect you. Money have impact. Honours have not. They arent the same. There is no reason to not be able to honour multiple people if everyone played awesome in the game.

Wolfeur1 votes

Unlike honours where they dont really affect you.

If honours don't affect you, why ask for more of them?

Honoring has an impact, emotionally and in-game, as it speeds up your honor level, which gives prestige as well as actual rewards.

Nyarlathοtep

I want it to be a thing because there are times where multiple people deserve honours. Its not that complicated.

Wolfeur1 votes

Yes, it is. Making honors limitless will result in the whole system collapsing.

Nyarlathοtep

HOW THE FK IS HONOURING MULTIPLE PEOPLE IS GOING TO MAKE THE SYSTEM COLLAPSE? Actually you know what? I give up. I forgot the most important thing when it comes down on arguing with strangers, never argue with a fool.

Wolfeur1 votes

Jesus, you just don't understand basic economy, do you?

The more something is available, the less valuable it is. Hence the need to limit the amount of honors. If everyone can honor everyone every game, honors don't mean shit!

remakoro1 votes

it is fucking meaningless right at this moment. system simply promotes people honoring useless %%%%s just cuz you want to get bonus to honor from everyone on your team using honor option.

mightysmity2 votes

Wow thanks riot... lol ?

More than one person can be honorable and you also DON'T HAVE TO honor everyone. But for those games when everyone plays outstanding, those are the games we want to honor everyone, and even our enemies for not giving up during a stomp etc.

So yes [zombie-brand-clap]

Wolfeur1 votes

you also DON'T HAVE TO honor everyone

No, but the fact that you can makes it the norm. You should then get 4 (or 9) honors every game, but then not getting it means someone actively decided not to give you something free.

Honor is supposed to reward good behaviour. With unlimited honors, the system changes from a reward to a punishment. It will just be a tool for toxic players to be even more selfish.

The honor could be distributed among your targets. If you honor one or two people they get a bunch, if you honor everyone they all get a little.

i dont understand why there are people actually against showing sportsman like conduct towards other plays even if its in the form form of honoring everyone deserves at least one honor i could careless about who the MOST honorable player is because 9 times out of 10 everyeone is the must honorable an im left with an unfair choice to give it to just one person when everyone deserves it

hell even the enemie sometimes deserves it

honestly some of you need to stop being so toxic

Yeah this new honor system is TRASH.....actually its like DOUBLE TRASH. Not being able to honor enemy players and only being able to honor 1 person on your team is just dumb.

The system is broken.......

  1. Duo players only honor their duos even if neither of them had a impact on the game.
  2. Some people only honor the person who got the most kills as if thats all that matters..... even if that person was flaming someone else. Im sorry but even if you got 2 penta kills in one game, if you were toxic, im not honoring you.

I say ...........

  1. give us more than 30 seconds to decide who to honor.......it doesnt hold anyone up from moving on to their next game.
  2. Let us use that extra time and see the post game stats BEFORE we have to honor.
  3. Let us honor the enemy team. 4 of the enemy are arguing with each other in all chat so our team can see it.....let me honor the only one on their team not being a baby.

You get honor as long as you play honorably. You dont need to be honored to get honor.

Pika Fox2 votes

Everyone gets honor as long as you play honorably. Post game honors are just a small bonus, with a bigger bonus to everyone if everyone honors someone.

I've played with really good teams who are all excellent shotcaller, chill af, and just overall great human beings.

Such a shame I can only honor 1 person :/

Same goes for enemies. Some are really chill and respectful.

Caretaker Jack1 votes

At the end of the game just have your ally faces show and if you choose to chat after the game, it can be like the old honor system where you can honor one enemy just by trying to friend/ block them.

Implement a super honor if 6 ppl honor you.

It's all about who is THE MOST HONORABLE.. It isn't about who was cool or fun to play with. Who did you enjoy playing with THE MOST out of the 4 others on your team?? That's what this honor system is all about.

From what rioters have been saying, yes :( There are many games I wish I could still honor the enemy or more than one teammate. For now, I pick who the best/most honorable is/was.

Honoring opponents (1) i can get behind. Honoring everyone i can't.

The old honor system was redundant and thus it did not matter who got honors. The current honor system gives players actual rewards, if honors can just be given to everyone, most people will get honored pretty much every game. Not to mention premades. Right now you actually have to make a choice, forcing you to actually think about who deserves it most.

One could even argue that not making efforts to implement the feature BACK is ignoring simple efforts that could be made to help avert the toxicity. (^:
