My idea to change LP.

Lexicanum··2 votes·428 views

So, the more I play ranked the more I realize that the system is broken with how someone gains LP. I have been getting lots of people that are feeding and trolling in my games and even after reporting them they're still playing. So, I thought to myself, how can they change this? I immediately thought of the rank system they have after the match to fix this issue. Hear me out because I know a lot of people complain about how shitty the LP system is for climbing the ladders.

First, keep the win/loss LP but reduce the amount you gain or lose overall. Make it a flat amount for each win/loss. Then you use the player's rank at the end of the match to adjust how much they get. This way a player that trolls and feeds doesn't really hurt other players, win or lose.

Example/Thoughts S+ is an extra 10 LP S is an extra 8 LP S- is an extra 6 LP A+ is an extra 5 LP A is an extra 4 LP A- is an extra 3 LP B+ is 1 extra LP B is no gain or loss B- is -1 LP C+ is -2 LP C is -3 LP C- is -4 LP

And anything less than that will be -5 or more points to the win/loss LP...but I've yet to see anything less than a C-.

I believe this will allow players that have excellent games, but still lose, to lose less LP than someone who does terribly. On the flip side, if someone goes out and does terribly due for whatever reason then they lose more LP than the players that do very well on the losing team. I also believe this will help stop people from being carried by a team to victory and getting lots of LP for it. I may not be describing my idea well on here and if there are any questions please respond to this and I will attempt to answer them.

If you believe my idea has some merit please help it get the attention of the Riot staff so, hopefully, it gives them some ideas on how to rework the LP system.

Thanks for taking the time to read my ramblings. See you on the Rift.

Never said you didn't have to die to win but there is a difference between dying while fighting and playing and being someone that is deliberately feeding and trolling. My idea is there to actually allow players that do well, and still lose, to advance. For example, I lost a game this morning as Alistar support. I got an A- for my game but the reason we lost is that we had a Teemo continuously feed and just troll by running into the entire enemy team on his own. He died 13 times and our second highest death was our Vi, with 9. Vi was doing really well until Teemo kept feeding the enemy Kayle and Lee Sin. Overall, I believe my idea would help get deserving players out of the so called Elo Hell. Now, this is only my second season so maybe, with time, I will see how things work in the current ranking system but as of right now I feel as if there could be a much better way to do ranked games. Obviously my idea wouldn't work with a ranked team because that means those 5 people are tied together through the team.

i understand sometimes like a darius top can keep killing and killing and killing u while tower diving without ur jungler ganking or a teemo ap that rapes like a bitch hides and comes out and rapes again i mean as long as the person is actually trying and not jsut trying to die then it makes sence.

sorry for spelling erroers in advance.
