Honor Capsules (imo) don't actually give enough 'stuff' to incentivize good behavior

This may be a touchy subject but honestly, I feel like Honor Capsules hardly give anything that really urge us to better ourselves. I always do anyway since I know that has a massive impact on win rate and overall team morale but I'd definitely think if Honor Capsules gave actual, meaningful things, Honor level and overall good behavior would be far more appealing.

I know it sounds like I'm just asking for free shit but honestly, maybe Riot would lose out on some sales revenue but player behavior would drastically be improved if they literally "provide enough" of a reason to make us want to improve behavior.

So yeah, I don't need this at all, I just thought that this would do far more good than harm. Well, harm to the players, not harm to Riot's wallets.

EDIT: They could either increase the loot or have something exclusive to Honor rewards in terms of progression. They have two exclusive skins but that's all the way at the very end of Honor 5, something that's "seemingly so far" that it kinda makes us give up in getting it. In order for Honor (or any real) progression to work, we need rewards for the progression itself, not just by reaching the destination.

They aren't supposed to be an incentive for good behavior. They're supposed to be a reward for not behaving bad.

You don't incentivize lack of negative behavior. You punish negative behavior.

Incentives are reward for behavior above that which is expected.

You’re not wrong, they’re pretty meh.

For me, the randomness of the rewards ruins the entire thing. I want to choose which skin/champion I unlock.

I've never gotten an honors capsule. I'm going to flip my shit if I ever see one.

  • Honor ward
  • Grey WW
  • Medieval Twitch
  • Hextech Key frags
  • Orange essence

So either those rewards don't fit you or you are pretty greedy.

You know what though, I've personally stopped opening my mastery chests until they remove BEfrom the rewards.

Events will give me master chests that don't have BE and I just use those to get my free content.

imo the most stupid thing riot did was... keyfragments linked to honor BUT also have them craftable from event tokens.

so i have the option... i either make a "event chest" for 300 tokens that most likely only includes a random skinshard... or i get 1 keyfrag for 15 token... so i get 20 and can make 8 keys and have 2 frags left.

this is just so stupid.
