Honor System Rewards

Hello there.

As I was replying to some topic on EUNE forums, I actually thought up of a system that would reward players that get honors a lot and also gives incentive to honor other players. It would work like this:

  1. If you get honored you get bonus 10% IP for next 3 games. It stacks with numbers of honors.
  2. If you honor at least 1 player - you get bonus 5% IP for the next game. Doesn't increase with numbers of honors given, just a flat 5% bonus.
  3. For every 100 honor points you have you gain 1% bonus IP for every game, stacking up to 20% at 2000 honors.
  4. You gain 10% bonus IP as long as you maintain a Crest of Honor (Ribbons).
  5. Bonus IP is immidiately removed and disabled if player gets punished (chat restriction, ban) for the duration.
  6. Bonus IP is not granted if honors are distributed among premades.

I know that it wouldn't give anything to players who already own everything in the game that is obtainable by IP, but majority of players doesn't own everything.

Anyway, what do you guys think about that?

I already own crest of teamwork and have had it forever. Free IP Boosts :D

Same here. I had the blue and yellow ones also, but only the green one shows up. Unfortunately, I don't think there's a way to choose which one you want visible.

With over 1800 'Great Teammate' honours and a few hundred in the other categories, I gladly stand behind this! :D

I'm not saying the numbers to brag, just putting myself as proof it is possible to hit the 2000 limit proposed in the main suggestion.

Actually, thinking about it, we could have evolving ribbons as you get more and more honors. Maybe a small red for a few honorable opponents and as you get more your ribbon gets better looking, up to having a full banner....

But then you would only be honoring others to get bonus IP for yourself and would only receive honors for them to get bonus IP... Might as well not call it an "Honor" system at all at that point no offense.

Even if they can't make honor off of premades what is to stop someone from constantly honoring 1 person or everyone every game without them deserving said honor just so they could prepare their 5% for the following game.

Yes, you would be honoring others for the IP. However, I do believe that they will always honor the most honorable player in game (I mean, who would want go give over double the benefit they get for someone they clearly didn't like?) and I doubt you can count on anyone honoring you when you act like a dick - thus improving the community even if by a little bit (remember how it was when honor system was implemented? There was a period of time when everyone tried their best being honorable).

So, not only it gives you the incentive to honor the most honorable player in the game (since you get 5% IP boost and you won't honor someone you don't like) - it also gives you the incentive to be honorable.

good idea, but won't happen. As League of Legends is a business and as a business this would hurt them. because giving out free % increase in IP boosts would diminish the amount of IP boosts actually bought with RP, decreasing their income. NEVER a good idea as a business. No matter how few people actaully buy RP boosts it would still decrease that even further.

Well, IP boost could double the IP gained from honors as well, thus making them desirable by players with lots of honor.

But I do know it won't happen, not because of IP boosts (which I believe are very small % of Riot income and I am sure they could discard it if needed)... The bonus IP will decrease champions/rune pages bought by RP (since you have more IP), thus decreasing Riot profit by way more significant amount.

Still, I liked the suggestion and was curious what other players will think about it.
