The Climb From Dishonorable Is STILL Way Too Steep

After my 14-Day ban was let up and I unlocked honor gain again I have been sitting at Honor Level 0, Checkpoint 0. That was about a month ago. I've been consistently honored at least once per game by people I'm not duo'd with even in losses, yet there I remain. Even after Riot supposedly "buffed" the climb from Level 0 to Level 2 I still have not noticed a difference. I'm wondering if the system is just straight up bugged or if it is meant as yet more punishment. I continue to accumulate boxes with no way of opening them outside of purchasing RP.

If there is anyone else who has a similar experience please post below.

Once you hit honor 0, you never come out, as far as I can tell.

Tantram has said that on average, the time to get out of dishonorable was 3 months. You may be longer or you may be shorter. Riot is taking a very hard stance on toxicity because it's one of the top reasons players stop playing a multiplayer game. The reason you may feel like you're never getting out of honor 0 may be your own fault but you don't know it.

The way the IFS works with honor while dishonored is that they rate your games on toxicity.

  • If you have clean games, ie NO toxicity at all, you go up and take a step closer to getting out of dishonored.

  • If you are slightly toxic, you take one step back and you stay in dishonored longer than you would have had you not been slightly toxic.

  • If you are toxic enough to get a chat restriction and if you've had a 14 day temp ban before this, you get hit with an escalated punishment and get permabanned.

You have to have CLEAN games to progress out of dishonored. These red posts are hidden among all of the Q's from various players so it's kind of hard to sift through and link because I don't keep them on hand, but you can look at red posts yourself and confirm I'm paraphrasing the reds here.

The slightly toxic games are cumulative. The more you have, the longer you stay in dishonored. People have said that the best way to get out of dishonored is to only say positive things and don't be sarcastic, mean, or passive aggressive with teammates at all as the IFS can detect it.

It might be that you're still negative in games, just not negative enough to get punished. You can progress through honor by at least being neutral, or not saying anything.
