Using honor for matchmaking

No idea if this is already in-place but maybe honor levels should be paired together so that good players are with good players and Aholes are with Aholes? I know this would be sticky in the beginning of every season cuz all honor levels are 0 but it would balance out. -Make them drop a whole honor level for leaving a game. I suggest this because I'm tired of the AFKs and D/Cs. The drama people bring into games is rediculous.

Sure, I can chat mute and ping mute everyone every game (absolutely rediculous that I have good reason to do that).

Here's more ideas: When a player d/c's for a long time, have a vote to initiate a bot script. Don't allow chat(or limited chat) in-game for low level honor levels . Don't allow chat in lobbies for low level honors.

Another matchmaking problem: Solo queue should be solo. No pairs, No trips, No quads, No 5s.

thanks

P.S. regarding the afkers... I have been playing since 2009. I can probably count the number of games I've left on my 2 hands. This is not the case for A LOT of players. If you add tiers for levels of Ahole-ness(amount of AFKs) and group people based on that. I'd be willing to bet that you'll end up with empty games once all the grimey players collect at the bottom. Then you can just have the game close when all the players d/c and save yourselves some server speed, eh?

Sounds like a nice idea but wouldnt work that well in rank, since they'd have to match same rank and honor.

Meanwhile I've seen assholes at honor 5 before the season. So it wouldn't help really.

i think when it comes down to it, rewarding good players doesn't make money. rewarding ALL players makes money. so thats what they do. how lame.
