But banned players from playing in Ranked until they reached Honor Level 1.
It would clean up Ranked queue and benefit everyone who plays ranked. And toxic players who continue to be disrespectful will be picked off in normal games and punished.
Jo0o2 votesFrom what I've gathered around here, most folks stuck in honor level 0 aren't there because it takes too long to get out of, but rather that their behavior makes them accomplish zero actual progress at all. Moving the finish line closer won't help folks who still haven't made it out of the gates.

Not gonna lie, i put that in the title so people would click the thread.
Real discussion though, Wouldn't this be a benefit for ranked players? And wouldn't it promote reforming, since the majority of toxicity takes place in ranked queue.
Jo0o1 votesHah! Well played.
Well, I suppose it would benefit ranked players... but it also kinda turns norms into a prisoner's island, right? Especially when you consider folks resigned to being stuck Honor 0 would be doubly punished by being indefinitely locked out of ranked.
I like where your head is at, but the implementation would be dangerous.
KingWanahakalugi1 votesHonestly, I'm not entirely opposed to norms being turned into a prisoner's island. I enjoy playing ranked, but I struggle to find the desire to play more than one consecutive game after watching my team verbally beat each other to the point of typing in chat more than playing the game. I don't know if that experience is as common in mid-to-high elo as it is in low elo, but anymore it just seems more and more frequent.
Implementation would surely be dangerous, but I wouldn't be opposed to Riot testing it for some time. Perhaps, now that we have two queues for ranked, restricting one for a period of testing allowing only players who have never been punished or players dedicated to reforming themselves. I don't get mad often, and I don't see myself getting banned for my occasional outbursts (small and rare in comparison to some chats I've read), but even if I did receive a ban, I could see myself working much harder to reform and "escape the island". I think it would at least be worth some experimentation even if it was just for a month or so.
MasterDClone1 votesI am honor 0 at the moment and i for one do not want to play norms game it is so terrible with just tons of very toxic people and to force all the toxic parts of the community in one game-mode may destroy the game that and a lot of people all they play is ranked so to stop them from doing so won't clean anything at all

It's a way to lose something they care about without having to reach permabanned status. Players who are going to reform are going to do so regardless if they can play ranked.
Putting all the toxic players in normals just makes it easier to ban them
MasterDClone1 votesthe main issue that i have with this is that the honor drop is constantly adding new locked away things like the clash game mode and ranked rewards. losing ranked would be just as bad as a perma if it's all you play in the game because normals are too toxic, too many trolls and nobody takes it seriously. I just don't want this to happen because i don't want to lose ranked it's the only fun i get in league, ranked rewards it's one thing clash pissed me off but to remove ranked you might as well just perma me cuz this game wouldn't be worth to drop such a bomb on those that are trying to reform
