Honor FAQ

how do i know my honor progress?

Just wanted to find a way to tell the rioters I am a big fan of the new honor system. What is the best way to do so? I now stop at the end of every game and take a moment to think about who did well. This small shift may make a big difference in the culture of the game.

Does the release of Honor mean that my Key Fragment cycle is reset?

As much as i enjoy the new honor system... I am very upset my old honor is just GONE. I had over 800 Teamwork. Been playing since season one.. and been a team player since they started the honor system... not fair imho

Hey why dont we see the progress we are making towards next honor stage and why dont we see honor in our match history

How often do keys dropped? I've played like 10+ games in two days and gotten an honor in almost every single game and still no key. With the old system I would've gotten a key every few games...

How will you find out that you level up in Honor?

Honor being initially designed as the positive reinforcement counterpart to the negative one of reports, what does the new system mean for the frequency of when I should give honor out? Is it still something I should only give for the best of the best, or is it a mostly hollow statement of you were average so you deserve a little something?

Put simply where should I draw the new line for awarding honor if it's moving away from being the opposite of the report system?

Can I game the system and boost to level 5 by constantly playing with a premade and honoring each other every game?

That’s a great idea. Luckily, we’ve broken a few systems in our day, too. So we specifically built Honor so potential exploits like this give you (and your friend) literally no benefit.

I play way more often with a small group of friends than with random people. Are we going to be penalized for not playing more frequently with other people?

I didn't find this question answered in the FAQ, but is your Honor level (where it shows on your profile page) only visible to you, or can your friends see it too once you've hit level 3+?

Does Honor only apply to SR? Can't find any reference to applicable game modes!

If it does, does the key drop rate from wins only remain for other game modes?

Too many chests, not enough keys!
