proposed changes to improve player behavior in ranked.

scazzman··2 votes·388 views

players on active chat bans cannot queue for ranked games and players coming off of 14 day bans for chat offenses cannot join ranked queues for 3 months. bans for intentional feeding and gameplay trolling in ranked games now result in a PERMANENT ban from ranked play on that account.

allchat is no longer available in ranked queues.

players can no longer premade with people outside of thier current tier. "bronze can only queue with bronze, silver with silver ect." no more bronze 5s getting carried by high silvers. or low silvers getting carried by high golds

in ranked games, the mute feature is disabled for both chat and pings, and the chat box cannot be resized, to compensate for players being unable to mute. chat is automatically restricted for EVERYONE in ranked queues only

while in low priority queue for afk. ranked play is disabled

/remake is now available until the 15 minute mark. provided a player has been afk for more than 3 minutes

players no longer earn IP for ranked games. only LP

in order to play ranked with a particular champion, that player must have at least mastery 5

autofill is now disabled in ranked play.

Youre going a little overly extreme with this.

  • Getting rid of all chat isnt gonna prevent people from flaming within the team
  • The "only in your own tier" suggestion is silly because Ive played games with people who still play like theyre in bronze in S5 to S3
  • Game requires communication. How are we suppose to indicate if someones ult is down or suggest a build if someone looking for opinions or have fun by cracking a funny or two ?
  • No IP in ranked? Might as well ban them then as the reason to play is by enjoying to get good in order to see how well you do against the masses of players imo.
  • Mastery 5 and below means nothing other than that person has played that champion vigorously. It doesnt mean theyre good with that champion. I got mastery 5 on MF and Syndra, but im pretty trash with them. Heck, even tho I have mastery 6 on Morgana, there are times I cant even land a skillshot.
  • If there was no autofill, people will start complaining about queue times. Theres no way around this unless we can go old school and try to learn every lane before you could even pre-select your lane.

Current system is fine.

  1. The shop will buy items automaticly
  2. Everyone gets invincible when they are about to die

Now i got rid of trolls and feeders. I am awesome right?=

So I cannot premade with my silver 5 friend because I'm bronze 1, not that's a mood killer. Why the fuck would you disable the muting system? The remake system can be easily abused. First turret in min 10 or 1 vs 9 in first 10 min? Leave for remake. Why would you remove the IP rewards??? And the mastery 5 is bullshit since I can have level 3 or 4 on that champion and understand it really good.

Well I have a few problems with this system:

Regarding the ban for people abusing chat

  • Players who get a chat restriction will instead just make normals a living hell if you do this, you are just moving the problem, not fixing it.
  • people who got a 14 day ban already got a punishment, they could not play ranked for 14 days, isn't that enough?

Regarding the chat mute function and ping mute function

  • I don't mind having chat disabled in ranked games and fully disabling all chat is a good idea for ranked if you ask me.
  • I fully disagree with the disabling of mute pings. I fucking hate people that spam missing and a lot of people abuse this.

regarding remake

  • Oh no, my team is losing let's just dc so we can remake for a smaller loss in lp. Why not simply make it so that the player that afk's for more then 5 minutes and the teammates he premades with get to share the lp loss, that is way less abusable.

##Regarding your low priority queue idea.

  • this would be a good idea if you ask me.

##Regarding queuing up with premades.

  • Why would you not simply make it so that the difference can be 5 divisions at best(silver 1 to gold 1/ bronze 1 to silver 1/etc), because with the system you propose a silver 1 100lp could team up with a silver 5 0lp but not with a gold 5 0 lp.

regarding the rest of the statements.

  • only gaining lp in ranked doesn't really solve any problem, it just makes the player use more time in normals to make ip for runes.
  • this mastery 5 level thing is way too far, I would say I can understand mastery level 2/3, but requiring everybody to have the time to level 20 champions to mastery level 5 is ridiculous. Also meta players(summoners that specialize in picking flavor of the month champions) would be brutally screwed by this system.
  • I think they should probably disable autofill below diamond again.

Thank you for actually being constructive rather then "drive by downvoting"

I remember when ranked restrictions were a thing. The mistake riot made Was people on ranked restrictions actually had to WIN games in order to remove them. And if i remember correctly it had to be normal draft. This was counterproductive because it made players on ranked restrictions treat normal draft as seriously as ranked.

The only requirement in my case is they have to go through thier chat ban. "If they were punished for chat" And if they continue their behavior in normals. They will just get banned anyway

And riot already restricts the players i mentioned from recieving ranked rewards anyway. So why not just make it so they can't play ranked

And i do have sympathy for the people in normals. But that doesnt take away from the fact that people in ranked dont want to deal with them either.

The reason i say take away the mute button for ranked. Is /mute all has become a plague. And while thats okay for normals. In ranked. If you /mute all at the start of the game you're a liability. And chat restricting everyone forces players to contain thier typing to gameplay

Youre right about mastery 3 and 4 being sufficient. My main goal was to keep 1st time champs out of ranked And 5 divisions seems reasonable

Taking away IP is another barrier to keep casual players in normals. And maybe not take it away. But reduce it VASTLY

The one part I like is the 14 day ban prevention from ranked q. But not because I hate them. It's because I HOPE that they'll be able to relax a bit in another game mode instead of going straight off a 14 day ban into ranked competition and getting perma'd.
