Honor progress

Have A Crit·6/7/2018, 5:55:00 PM·2 votes·3,373 views

Hello,

I recently got a chat restriction for spamming in chat and apparently being toxic to my teammates. I sit through the 10 games on that same day, but my honor got reset back to lvl0 from the 3rd checkpoint and is locked since then.

Since I don't want to play Clash on a smurf, I'm trying to get my main back to lvl 2 as fast as possible.

I read about how the honor system works - that honor actually jumps lower even without getting a restriction, but without showing - and how reports are used for investigation of the game only.

Since I really want to get to honor lvl2 fast, I'm trying what I can to reach it. I was thinking of playing 2 games of normal games per day - with support role, roaming and helping other lanes, and begging for honors during champ select and game. (This is because I was assuming that both number of games as well time matters, but I'm not sure.)

Yet after 1 week my honor is still locked.

I would like to know what the most efficient way to get honors is - I'm not enjoying playing the support role and I don't like playing LoL during the week.

If I play 2 games a day and don't get any validated reports, how long do I have to play to a) get my honor unlocked and b) get to the next honor checkpoint (assuming each checkpoint has a fixed distance)

Does playing every day help or is it the same if I play 10 games during the weekend instead?

Also, I would like to know if any of my recent games have been considered as "toxic". I've read that it's better to mute and disable chat, but I'm trying to make people more likely to honor me through using phrases like "gj", "wp", "nice", ... (This is actually something I was doing even before getting restricted, but I'm very desperate to play clash with my friends so I'm exaggerating a lot.). AFAIK games get a numerical toxicity score if someone reported me in that game, and I would really like to know what I shouldn't type anymore.

The account I'm talking about is "Have A Crit" on EUW.

Thank you guys and have a great day.

Probably going to take months to reach honor level 2.

Always honor at the end of the game. Try to get that honor boost from everyone honoring.

I wouldn't recommend "honor begging". General "niceness" should be ok.

If you don't chat at all, you can't get in trouble for chat. Then, as long as you don't game play troll, there isn't really anything you could get in trouble for.

May not be true, but I think there may be "honor streaks". The more "nice" games you can string together, the faster your honor will progress.

We do know that even minor offenses that don't result in punishment, will slow your honor gain.

You can't really reach levels FAST in honor. They take months of good clean behavior to move forward.

from the p[eople that got out of h0, 250 games to go from h0 to h2. So by your 2 games / day formula, it will take around 4 months.

I've heard people claim they levelled honour up faster playing ARAMs - not sure if this is true but could be worth a go as you can fit in more games and people tend to be less tilted?
