LESS BANS!!! MORE ENJOYABLE RANKED GAMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To whom it may concern:

I have currently been playing ranked games with the goal to traverse the rankings to the top. I loved league of legends and playing it, but as of late there is an issue that can not be denied or ignored. I was recently banned. In this ban I have constantly thought to myself what can solve the problems associated with the lack of enjoyment that caused my rage and the rage of many. Yes one could hit the mute button or simply ignore the feeders. However, this is ranked gaming. I and many have entered into rank play TO ENJOY IT. As well as, to move up in the rankings, and perhaps one day go pro. Now I am sure that you are emailed CONSTANTLY with anger and frustration.

I HAVE THE SOLUTION TO THE BRONZE HELL

AS WELL AS

A VERY VERY VIABLE SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEMS THEREIN

When someone rages out of frustration and anger there is a report system.

Can I hit the feeding button? sure, but what does it do?

I have come to this conclusion.

TO CUT BACK YOUR EMAILS AND YOUR BANNING (which when an account is banned that is lost profits)

Implement a system where if one is to obtain 4 or more deaths in the lane phase lets say FIRST 10 MINUTES OF GAME PLAY --

They are forced to complete 5 wins in match-made draft pick. If they do so and then do not recall or dive towers or just plain make awful team decisions before the game is even on its way completely shattering their teams chances of a FUN ENJOYABLE game. They are then reprimanded to completing this required task.

This system will cause those people to either give up on rankings until they are good enough to not ruin other peoples times, or not play when they are drunk, using a new champion they have never used etc.

Also there could be, now this I feel would be harder to implement.

A system where you have to have played a number of games with a champion to enter them into your ranked game.

I do not write this email out of anger or hate. Simply out of frustration with what you game has become..

THIS I ASK TO YOU!!!!!!!!

Do you want to receive less hate over bronze hell. Would you like to be able to ban less accounts and thereby not stop your profit flow from said accounts purchasing skins and such????

Then please I beg of you. Implement this system and make this game more enjoyable for the masses that have loved and stuck by you all this time.

Sincerely,

J.W. Jewell

Hate over "bronze hell" will never go away. The hell and hate come from people being frustrated that they aren't as good as think think they are or as good as they want to be. You don't just get stuck in bronze. You start higher than bronze. An unranked player is considered silver.

Ranked isn't some place for only good people. Score in lane or in general is not indicative of your skill, but rather the skill difference between you and your opponent.

telling someone what theyre doing wrong kindly - reported, penalized leaving a game that someone on your team lost at 10 mins to avoid 50 mins of hell - penalized Causing 50 mins of hell for your team by not playing as a team player - no penalization, able to do this over and over to more people League you thereby fail.

yep. Heroes of the Storm my new love.

so if someone plays one bad game they cant play ranked? if the other laner is just better they cant play ranked?

Apparently, Ranked is only for the best players.

You can play ranked again, but you must complete a certain number of draft picks where you die once you know that if you die again you will drastically change the tides of the game. If you keep dying after a death or two that quickly you are giving the other team such a huge advantage. The best way to win league is to not die. You can literally let them take your towers and not die and YOU WILL WIN.

An unskilled player is not going to magically become more skilled during a Ranked Restriction. Rather, they're going to demonstrate the same skill - or lack thereof - that landed them there in the first place.

On top of that, they're going to do so in a format that could very well be far less balanced in terms of Rankings (as high-ranked players often don't play much non-Ranked, and thus have significantly lower Normals MMR than they should - the inverse of this is true of extremely low-ranked players).

Which simply means that this system of yours is designed to weed out the "bad players" by removing them from Ranked. Which goes entirely contrary to Riot's policy on the matter (League is for everyone), and is - in and of itself - indicative of one of the most toxic of attitudes seen in the lower rankings: elitism.

No it is designed so that they can play ranked games as long as they are not feeding. It will teach them the importance of recalling, warding, and not chasing kills.

Jubbinaut1 votes

Define "feeding."

And then recognize that at many levels of play? Some number of players - on one or both sides - will almost always fit that definition.

Seriously, I watched a game the other day where C9 Sneaky was dominated so heavily in his lane that he wound up with 6 or 7 deaths by the 10-minute mark.

Your system would have him earn a Ranked Restriction for being camped in an unfortunate lane.

Dudest3r1 votes

he must have not been buying wards properly. put Sneaky into 5 games so he can remember to buy wards then he can get back at it.

Dudest3r1 votes

send a link I'd like to watch to see if he was warding properly

Dudest3r1 votes

he was probably playing selfishly, but that is an assumption I'd have to see the video.

  1. I spectated the game, rather than watching a video.
  2. While I appreciate your assumption regarding warding, at almost no point was there ever less than 3-4 wards surrounding his lane. I freely admit, he himself was not warding often, but his support was handling the job quite well.
  3. Sneaky tends to be a fairly selfless player, so it's perhaps unwise to assume he was playing selfishly.
  4. You seem to be neglecting the skill of the other player (y'know, the one getting all these kills?), which strikes me as short-sighted.

if you die 5 times in 10 minutes the laners not better, you don't know how to recall

Dudest3r1 votes

Dying in league of legends is a major advantage to the other team that is almost as important as last hitting if not more. SO if you give a champion 1500 gold or more in 10 minutes. Your teams chances of winning are drastically decreased. Therefore this system will teach players how to play for their team not for the kills they wish to obtain. Hence making ranked a team game that is fun.

You are greatly mistaken you must not have read the post in full. Losing to your opponent being better is not what is being brought to attention. That is more than okay that is the point of ranked play to be better than the opponent. They can play ranked until they die 5 times in 10 mins. Then they have to complete match mades in hopes that they learn to ward, recall, and not chase kills. Then you can play ranked again. If you don't die that many times in 10 mins you can continue to play ranks one after another. The system is to weed out the people who play new characters in a ranked that they have no clue how to play. Weed out the people who play ranks drunk over and over. Weed out the people who play for themselves. League of Legends is meant to be a fun team game. Dying more than two times in the first ten minutes is utterly ridiculous. If you die 5 times in 10 minutes. You probably should be playing bots.

Typical its not me that's bad, its everyone else thread.

Dudest3r1 votes

Negative. I am not speaking on behalf of me I am speaking on behalf of everyone who has to deal with 50 minutes of horror all because one or more people have no clue how to recall, ward, or communicate with their team. Without a full team league of legends is no longer fun. And it is a game meant for people to meet people find teams be able to progress in solo queues.

Dudest3r1 votes

Reasons for dying so much are chasing kills. Lack of warding. Not recalling. All of which should not be done so frequently in ranked play. If we are forced to get to level 30 before playing ranked play. Should we not be forced to learn more after that?

Dudest3r1 votes

CAN SOMEONE FROM RIOT COMMENT because no one commenting has given me one substantial piece of evidence that this isn't what needs to be done. I'd like some sort of clue as to whether or not I am going to be able to enjoy League of Legends ever again.

"feeding" is not a behavior issue, its a matchmaking issue. People who play poorly, will lose more and thus be a lower rank. They will never do anything approaching what you are asking. So if that's what you define as being needed to enjoy league then you should quit. The thing is, you are failing at some other aspect of the game to be the same rank as them if they are feeding at you aren't. Or they are just having a bad game, it happens.

Again I must reiterate. Dying a few times is a bad game. Dying 6 times in first ten minutes. Is something much much different.

Not really. Just more of the same.

I have checked where you have posted and what you have posted. You are nothing but a troll poster hence I will waste no more time trying to speak with you.

I disagree with you so I must be a troll right?

In all seriousness though. Think what you want, I don't care. But I am curious what posts of mine you would classify as trolling.

You've got it backwards. It's your responsibility to demonstrate that your idea has merit. As of yet, you have not managed to do so.
