a potential solution to elo boosting

why not simply have a volunteer program where high elo players would go into low mmr ranked matches. and not only play, but also coach. and there would be one "mentor player" on both teams, and they would be assigned to the same lane to prevent mismatches. these players would be given some sort of compensation by riot "I:e summoner icon, or a unique champ skin. " and in order for players to be eligible. they would have to be diamond or above, and in good standing

i dont really see the problem with elo boosting. i had a guy in my friendslist who was bronze 5 and got boosted to plat 5. not even 1 month later he was back to bronze 5 again. sure he ruined a bunch of games, but he wasted money, understood that he actually sucks not his team and never ever boosted again.

Many(most) of the games played by the booster on the way up and played by your friend on the way down were ruined by their pressence. On the way up you had a guy that didn't belong stomping on people much worse than him. On the way back down he was a boat anchor causing those losses.

That's not a solution to Elo boosting. You are talking about something to teach people and that's not what Elo boosting is.

People get boosts because they don't want to put in the work to climb, frequently because they don't have the ability to do so.
