I say we should add increasing LP loss for consecutive losses in ranked. like 15-18-23-27-37-50-moved back a division.This helps in many ways, such as:

If you got placed too high in provs Someone boosted your ass and you deserve to derank You have more incentive to win

of course, if we were to add this we should also add increasing LP gain such as 15-22-26-35-45- moved up a position This also helps in various ways such as:

smurfs will climb to their mains level much faster, kicking them out of your games if you have a bad provisional series you can recover You have more incentive to win Even if someone gets on a lucky streak and are placed to high, the decreasing LP will help balance it out.

Im not sure how this will work out. Just like many of riots changes, this sounds really good in theory but could easily be shit.

any thoughts?

I think having their fates tossed around violently by lucky streaks of wins or losses would mostly just make people even angrier at the league system. promotions are already more or less asking for a lucky win streak and people HATE those.

makes boosting way easier and maybe even cheaper so ... I doubt you thought this through.

Additionally I really dislike the idea of getting punished for consecutive losses. I even think that's plane stupid. Sometimes you have a good day and sometimes a bad day. But should those moreover random days really decide about your overall skill resemblance? I think no.

And it's really infuriatingly if you lose 3 times in a row and you know you mustn't lose the next one.
