How does honor work? I was punished during pre season (working on not being toxic, using AHK to block chat), but i was wondering how does getting my honor level back up work? It seems like every game that I am getting 2-3 honors so far and It doesn't seem to move from being locked. Does anyone have any idea how long it takes to get it unlocked/level 1 and what does the new season honor reset mean for me?
Thanks!
Honor progress is generally determined by how many games you play in which you don't get validly reported - so, saying nothing and simply playing the games through will give you the ambient Honor gains, while getting Honored and getting full team Honor bonuses will give you more progress.
I'm unsure about the prerequisites to unlock Honor - all I can say is to simply keep playing games 'til it clears.
As for how long to reach Honor Level 1, on best behavior, I've heard that it takes only a week to clear a Checkpoint, so on neutral behavior, maybe two-three months to go up an Honor Level? It's tough to really make solid estimates.
And, as for the Honor Level Reset, unfortunately, the reset only applies to players at or above Honor Level 2. Players below Honor Level 2 will be unaffected by the reset.
Preseason is over in a few hours, honor will reset with it and you should find yourself at honor level 2 I believe. Personally it took me 2 days to get out of honor 0 but I just spammed ARAM, made stupid jokes and played my best. Playing around this time in ARAM is best, especially on Fridays-Saturdays because you'll find a lot of premades who appreciate good banter and skilled players.
what is AHK? if i could remove the chat function as an option i would. i havent seen a key frag in months
