The new honor system is great, but there's one slight adjustment that would take it to next level
Currently, once you've reached Honor 5, you simply get a static Honor 5 Orb every time you obtain enough "honor exp" to hit the repeating checkpoint. This is nice, but ultimately not very relevant considering the rewards the orbs give are pretty much useless to people with most/all of the champions unlocked.
To fix this, I simply suggest that every fourth checkpoint, you get an Honor 5 Capsule instead of the normal Honor 5 Orb reward. This would effectively simulate "leveling up", without needing to add levels past Honor 5. The Honor 5 Capsule gives rewards relevant to everyone, so it would actually feel rewarding when you reach that point.
Alternatively, you could add the following rewards from Honor 5 Capsules to the Honor 5 Orbs:
- Medieval Twitch
- Grey Warwick
- Random emote
- Random ward skin
Could even put them in with only a chance to drop instead of guaranteed, if that's Tencent's concern about it. The main point is that it would make it actually feel rewarding to keep staying positive and earn honor.
