A new system for bronze players only.

ApeSlave·Mar 31, 2016·1 votes·904 views

Bronze ranked hell is real. It isn't a stereotype it isnt a myth it is a reality and a fact in the League of Legends community. When you are thrusted into the bronze world ranked system you are in a battle against yourself and with all of your teammates at a level greater then any other.

So I had a solution to the bronze hell problem. Pretty simple. You should get bonus LP for a higher grade and lose less for a higher grade. Everything else would stay the same.

This means if you get an S rating an A+ rating excetera then instead of getting just your standard 18-20 or whatever LP you also would get a bonus lets say 10 or 20 or whatever LP based on the grade you acquired.

After bronze it would just be the same throughout the rest of the ranked system. Meaning this idea would only apply to bronze players. I think this will help the bronze community in fixing a problem that seems to not ever want to leave. Now this will weed out faster the players who don't belong in bronze and the players who do.

I believe that this implemented idea would work really well in bronze and just in bronze. And just help out those who need it.

Ps. I also think adding turret damage as a possible stat would be useful.

Anyways thank you for reading I hope you agree. I think this solution would be a nice breath of fresh air to the people who have to struggle in the lowest rank of League.

Share you thoughts.

Its an interesting idea. However, I feel if a player is truly not a bronze player then they should be able to get out of bronze. At the end of the season there is already a very small percentage of players in bronze as it is. it seems the system is working well enough to sort players out.

Well im unaware of the statistics, but as a bronze player who has gone from V to iV 3 times in a little over a week, it becomes very disconcerting in the solo que when you feel you dont deserve the sways so quickly. Not saying im amazing. But i have gone on winning streaks and it was because of being lucky in solo. Where if I got more lp for that streak of my higher lvl performance I may be in a higher elo there for able to get out the muck and shine brighter.

And I mean bronze 3, 2. Not higher as in silver etc.

Basically what erchlorate said.

I do have an account chilling in bronze 2 right now and the games are definitely more frustrating than even in mid silver. Its not even the fact players do dumb shit as much as the fact as how everyone wants to give up right away. In just a few games in bronze I could not believe how much more rage I see than in low silver borderline gold. I get people are mad about being in bronze but raging about it and taking it out on ones teammates is not going to get you to rank up any quicker.

But yea in the end... if you don't deserve bronze then getting out should not be too big of a deal. If it is then you have some learning to do. Once you learn some new things and get better climbing will become much easier. Its all about perseverance.

I'm not saying that you're wrong but it doesn't add to this point I'm trying to make.

If you think it's a bad idea then why. By stating that because you're not good enough you're going to stay in bronze does not change the fact that if you are good enough then you will get out of bronze faster with my idea implimented.

The only reason I think it is a bad idea is because then Riot is saying "hey your stats matter", which I mean obviously they do but even with a bad kda you can still win. The argument of kda and one's grade has been used before for ranking up but it is always shot down. Mainly because if kda mattered so much then people would either deffer learning other parts of the game or would no longer want to dive as much in teammfights or split push. Although dying less sounds good and it should help sometimes you need players who are going to get dirty and jump in and use that Amumu ult or what have you. I think Riot has decided that the equation for ranking up is simple "Win at all costs". If KDA or grade become a ranked factor then that would change how people play ranked. Granted some of it would be for the better but it would also be for the worse as well.

I understand what you're saying. And it definitely should not be based off of KDA. and frankly the grading system without a doubt needs to be improved for a broader skill set.

But I think the core of the idea stays the same. That is why if riot could program a better grading system the way it's supposed to be then the idea would actually work perfectly in theory. Same with losing less IP for a loss that you did well in.

I guess the idea isnt glorious enough for the layman to except unforcunatly.

Lol sorry, but if you can't get out of bronze, then you belong in bronze.

ApeSlaveMar 31, 20161 votes

I feel thats a rude an false comment. It's a team game not a solo game.

ApeSlaveMar 31, 20161 votes

And all this would do is help the players who do well so if I'm bad then it won't do me any good anyways.

The problem is the grade system is so wonky.

I go 5/5/17 as a tanky jg and get a B.

lol tf?

ApeSlaveMar 31, 20161 votes

That is absolutely true. But even then that player should get a little bonus.

But I agree that the system definitely needs tweaking.

He's KIND OF right but not totally. What you need to do is figure out what's gonna get you climbing up to silver gold etc. Watch educational streams or better yet record your games and review the replays. You'd be amazed at how many things can easily be improved upon to help you climb.\

Good Luck!

Okay. Okay. Okay. Yesss. I get it everybody. If you suck and you cant escape bronze you belong there. It doesnt matter how bad your team is. Its you and only you who has the power to escape.... ( I disagree with this but apparently that's what everybody believes commenting on my idea)

BUT THAT DOESNT change the fact that my idea would work well for players who do deserve to get out and get out faster... is anyone reading the idea?

Then the people who prioritize getting high KDA's would have an easier time than the players who don't care about that and go for objectives. And one is better than the other.
