My idea to change LP.

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.
