I miss players honouring each other

Riot should give you some rewards like ward skins or summoner icons if you get honored or honor somebody. Now in ranked unless you are a great support or solo carry the game you barely get honoured.

welcome to the current game where the only people that care are the poor saps that are getting trolled trust me i like those days as well

VladTheMageJul 20, 20163 votes

Not really. Simply I always see people only say GG after a ranked game then going straight into another one.

457 honorable opponent honors... I'm not saying this to brag, or to put you down. Simply to give you some hope in people. It is possible that people are more picky with who they give honors to, but if you were getting them a lot before, then you can still get them. Try the following line

"The only reason you guys won is that you played better"

Edited to add : I replied to the wrong message, hopefully this wont be too confusing

Or:

"Fun dificult game" - regardless of win or loss in a balanced game

"Sad to me and my team, but you deserved to win. well done" - when losing in a one sided game.

"You did great regardless of afkers." - when winning vs a team that has afk, but still continue to play

etc...

Basicly just be a sportsman

Or even shorter: "gg wp all" whether you win or lose.

Those were tips to increase the odds of getting the "Honorable Opponent" tag, by being diferent and giving alot more enfasis to the positive side of the game than 'just' a "gg wp".

Amasa DelanoJul 21, 20161 votes

They were great tips. I was just trying to add one more, if people didn't want to type all that out every game.

If any opponent says "gg" in the after game chat (w/o "ez"), I always give them Honorable Opponent. It's just super rare that even that happens, especially if I was on the winning team.

I'm still getting honors all the time. I think it was 2 days ago, I was at 777 teamwork honors! I was so happy. But then the people had to give me more honors and now I think I'm at 781, which is so much less cool of a number.

VladTheMageJul 20, 20162 votes

Yeah. However enemies almost never honor you for honourable opponent and most of mid lane ones spam mastery level or says ez in all chat. Teammates are nice but opponents are cruel

Play Coop vs. AI games. The players there are usually super casual or extremely new, and both of those groups tend to be more honor heavy.

Most other game modes you have to pull off three pentakills while securing dragon and curing pancreatic cancer for a single teammate to honor you.

I don't honour anyone because I'm from Amurrica. I'll occasionally honor exceptional players though!

I miss early season 5 I joined around that time and I got all these within a years time https://gyazo.com/533517947c3899422145ba6f8d89294d.jpg however now I'm lucky to even get one despite if I carry or do a good job supporting Teams don't thank you anymore and seem to only care about themselves also when you screwup they flame you hard despite the fact that you may or maynot have the least ## of deaths and most ## of kills on team

sigh I really miss the good ol days when the riven mains roamed around free in toplane and fiora had that omnislash ulti :( nowdays you have midlaners who refuse to ping MIA's and botlaners that try and 1v3 constantly

VladTheMageJul 20, 20161 votes

Yeah. Old top lane was better. Now tanks are a shadow of their past that get kited to hell by ADC's. Also now most ranked players care about LP

tribunal 2.0 which involves rewarding of sportsmanlike behavior is in the works.

But it is faaaaaaaarrrr down the pipeline. Don't expect it anytime soon.

It used to be commonplace, back when people were respectful.

I solo carried many games as adc but still no honors are given. Well i do believe it will be more rewarding if players with S/S+ grades should have earned more IP (the /core they used for counting ur elo in ranked game) in order to encourage players to do better; and even if u lose, if u got high grades then u shouldnt drop too much IP or even prevent from dropping. since in a game, there are usually only one or two players who can achieve S, i do believe this could encourage players to play well and to stay possitive
