Dominion point system mistake

Ryddle·1/27/2015, 4:39:24 AM·3 votes·462 views

Had a game where our team's Ez Ezreal went bot and got over 600 points from 6 captures and 4 neutrelizes. The problem was that all of these caps were from our bot capture point. He could not hold. What's worse is that this was the highest score on our team (it's was a very bad game). To me this seems like a mistake. I understand that the complexities of this game can not be fully captured in such a simple mechanic but shouldn't there be a way to keep from rewarding bad playing? How about deducting points from a champion if a capture point is neutralized or captured within a few seconds of the champion leaving the point (including leaving by death)?

It's a super-horrible system and a lot of Dominion players have been asking Riot to remove it since it encourages bad play for years now.

But nothing has been done.

See you on the Rift! -Riot, probably

The point system would be perfect with a few changes, I think:

  1. Remove all references to score in the UI
  2. Change all objectives to award zero points
  3. Forget personal score ever existed

Ignore the score bro. It's broken and only make people see the mode in a wrong way. It's pretty annoying when people in matches argue with you based on this score. Riot needs to remove it.
