I actually think Riot is hiding their true motive of stealth nerfing smurfing, because as is ELO loss makes a lot of sense.

the problem is that the mid or feed kids are gonna be playing a game a chicken with the 4 other people on their team with their revive/promote eves and getting someone else to dodge will work often enough that the deterrent will possibly be completely ineffective.

there is almost always gonna be 1 out of 4 people who would rather dodge than play with a troll if there is no elo loss, and the actual troll will rarely have to experience whatever the dodge penalty is himself.

Also, can someone explain Riot's reasoning to make a skin worth the same amount as a champion?

They put as much or more effort into it, hence it's worth the same or more.


I don't think anyone who doesn't work at Riot knows for sure how long they take to work on a particular champion or skin. But by their own admission Pulsefire Ez took a lot more people working on it than any other skin has and it's been getting worked on for over a year now. So yeah, I think it's safe to say they put more time, effort, and manpower into this skin than they probably do for most champion releases.

I'm personally looking forward to bailing out of games where two people are already at each other's throats before the first ban, where the last pick is a special snowflake, or when TL B starts yelling at me for queuing too fast. There will be downsides, but I think they'll be worth it.

The thing, though, is that this already happens. You're always going to get people that act like that, whether there's an ELO penalty or not. Now, though, I won't have a real issue dodging that troll myself, I'll just go get some water or something and wait for the timer.

Will there be more dodges? Maybe. But there'll also, I think, be less troll games because there's less incentive to stick with a bad team.

The lack of elo loss also makes it feel a little less awful when an emergency happens when your queue pops (which has happened to me a couple of times). Granted, it's kind of a minority case, but when, for example, your friend gets really sick and you have to take him to the doctor and he calls you, but you're currently in champ select, it feels kinda bad when you get additional, permanent punishment from riot for dodging.

no doubt the quality of games with improve enough that it'll most likely be worth it, but if riot doesn't handle the change close to perfectly there is potential for queuing and starting a ranked game to be a much, much longer and more frustrating process than it is currently.

The penalty shouldn't be losing ELO, it should be something much harsher like LOSING IP/RP OR BEING BANNED

Losing IP and RP is the dumbest thing ive ever heard. Lets pay money to give it away cause we have an emergency

double leaver debuff or just removing the ELO thing in general would be better

A simple -50% IP "buff" for a couple of games might be enough actually.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

I really like removing elo loss for dodging. Because for players like me who only have time to play 1 maybe 2 games every couple or days or so it SUCKS when you get that BS shit happening in champ select and that is the game you have to deal with unless you want to lower your elo (and this sucks when your TRYING your hardest to raise it).

Oh, and he was playing Cassio of all champs.

EDIT: I think an IP-reduction for 1 or max 2 games would be the best.

I think even reducing IP for a dodge is dumb, because I get in queue and hell I dunno my mother needs me to run to the store and I have to dodge, I then have to come back and sit through a game or two where i know its just wasting time because im getting jack shit for IP, just because of some unforeseen circumstance earlier. Thats dumb.

If anything make it double the dodge queue, instead of starting at 5 or 6 or whatever 10 or 12 for dodging ranked.

Random thought on removing elo loss:

Currently some people tank their elo to beat up scrubs by dodging a lot.
If people want to tank their elo still, will this mean they will start just afking in actual games to lose elo?

I have no idea how common people intentionally tanking their elo are, but I just hope it's not enough to noticably increase afks/leavers.

Yeah, but it's so much fun to play something like "support" lux at low elo's where you get so many kills you can build a deathcap around the same time as your AP mid l0l.

I always liked the loss of elo. Yes, it sucks if some emergency or unexpected circumstances happens (and it happend often enough to me), but they could aswell happen in the first minute of the game. IMO the game already starts at picks and bans since they are crucial to the actual game, and therefore you shouldn't be able to leave without an elo penalty.
