I GOT HONOR LEVEL 3 --- And I didn't do much.
It's been almost a week since players started getting honor level 3, and I know a lot of us were/are feeling left behind. I thought maybe I wasn't doing something right, maybe not enough of something; should I chat more? Should I play ranked? Should I do premades? But I stuck to my routine and got it! It didn't take much, but I was pretty consistent.
My routine (since the honor update):
- I've played ARAM almost every day, generally until I get first win of the day; whether it takes one match, or more.
- I've played 192 games since the honor update.
- I'm unranked, I don't play ranked (haven't since s4), and I don't do premades. I always que alone (I'm a happy loner).
- I always honor vote at the end of a match, win or lose.
- I RARELY chat in-game and usually mute my whole team. I'll maybe type "gj", "wp" once or twice every other game.
- I always have all-chat disabled (I get tilted too easily).
- I get honored regularly (anywhere from no honors, to a ribbon). I try to play well and help my teammates, and I try hard **not ** to show it when I get tilted, like when I'm getting rekt or teammates seem to be trolling. I keep the tilt to myself.
I got the honor 3 notification while I was ready to que up a game. I had just badly lost a game of ARAM, was ready to que up again, and left to make some food. When I came back ~15 min later, the notification was waiting for me.
I hope this information helps someone while they wait for their own notification, and I hope everyone trying to get to honor level 3 gets there swiftly! I know the wait is awful.
