Tribunal Overhaul Idea

Niam Dez··1 votes·348 views

league tribunal as its own mini game -- gives rewards and medals/Lawyer Skins for select champions and xp to level up your lawyer profile, distinguishing you from others within the tribunal. This will ensure you get more logins and increased interest the tribunal itself from a greater audience, adding more dynamic to your current system and ultimately being part of most players evolution into not being a fuckass. (Maybe)

Don't incentivize the tribunal system with skins, medals or rewards. Just keep it the way it is and just reinstate it.

The point is to incentivize it, though. Get the greater audience aware of what is and isn't ok to do in the game itself and other games as a whole, like feed on purpose or tell someone they should kill themselves because they just died...as you know the list goes on.

More people in the tribunal won't make it work better. And that's not why Riot shut it down anyway. It should be open to everyone in good standing with Riot standards and should yield zero rewards of any kind.

If we do things your way the tribunal judgments will be flooded by people who are doing the tribunal cases just to get a skin they want. Once they get it poof they no longer make judgments. Riot now has to entice these players to come back with more skins. Skins they spend time and effort on and make zero monetary gains on.

They did away with the tribunal because Riot Lyte's ban program behavior management system is CHEAPER. This is why Riot won't directly confirm that tribunal will not make a return because there is zero way they can put a positive spin on it. They made the program and there is zero upkeep on it, the results are instant and because the bans are so strict these "bad players" have zero chance of negatively influencing the games of the "good players" who play their game.

The tribunal is about reforming bad players to become good players. Lyte's behavior management system is about isolating the bad players away from the general public so that their "infectious bad attitude" cannot warp the other players in the community. So the bad players never actually get better, they just go someplace where they only meet more of their kind and negatively impact each other creating a vicious cycle that never gets better. And Lyte is ok with this and Riot is too because it is practically free to run so they can spend more money on the LCS advertisements they like so much.

No, people should not need the incentive to show kindness and treat strangers well. This would be a small seedling of a plan to say...raise someone's child a little better than their parents have in some way...knowledge is power and all. You'd get a badge or border and a skin that says "hey, this guy is not an asshole and the community agrees" from some internal rating system of positive/negative feedback towards their verdict votes perhaps?

Who the heck will give a positive feedback on them getting banned? If you spam "not guilty" you can farm the badges and that defeats the purpose of having a tribunal.

And we already have badges called honor badges. I have one and have had it over 3 years now. Its really not that great in the eyes of the typical league player. In fact some times in queue I get mocked for having it. Not that it phases me but to illustrate my point badges such as that which have zero relationship on how well you play the game is irrelevant to the community at large. Again, the idea won't work.

The tribunal isn't going to make a comeback for whatever reason Riot has for it. Close the casket on this thread, it's dead.
