Instead of punishing the people who have been banned already, why not just reward the others?
I'm talking about the season rewards incident. Basically, players who have been banned aren't eligible for end-of-season rewards.
Why? I mean, the whole process of them being banned WAS their punishment. Why can't you just give all the non-toxic players a mystery skin? Or nothing; I don't mind either way.
The way you did it, a shit load of trolls, AFKs, feeders, just people who generally want to make your game miserable have flooded ranked queues. They now have nothing to lose at all, why not get a giggle out of pissing other people off, right?
This policy illogical and should be reverted, or in the very least, don't do it next year.
