here's the full thing. unironically "i can still win. and if i can't, then i can learn for the next time" is a genuinely amazing sentiment that i think more ranked players should consider
@drewlevin Is the lack of secondary rune trees being visible on the scoreboard on your radar? I've just been assuming everyone has cosmic insight for summ timers, but its not ideal
@drewlevin what is the restrictions with making dodging affect MMR? Essentially just cause it to be equivalent of losing the game
I figure it would increase chat toxicity marginally(where people hostage to get others to dodge), but otherwise works? Sorry if you've mentioned b4
@drewlevin For maximal competitive integrity, yes.
However, I also see and agree with what others have said around the feeling of winstreaking.
So with that in mind I would wonder if there would be a way to gradually phase it out from plat~masters. Where the value proposition makes sense
@LSXYZ9 What do you think about lowering the cd of the passive by an insane degree(like to 8sec?)
Lean into the only unique thing about the item, and could allow it to be a utility item for mage supports or something? (Could also lower the ap&cost to make it better for mage supp)
@drewlevin am I correct in assuming that riot approves of alt accounts for purposes like playing normals with friends and playing different roles, but that an alt account that only plays ranked and the same role as main is NOT approved?
@GoWon42@drewlevin Not to mention with the added smurf detection and banning of bought accounts, the feasibility of leveling an account all the way to 30, then dodging a million games, then avoiding smurf detection just doesn't seem feasible outside of an extreme edge case not worth discussion
@drewlevin what are the realistic challenges of just making dodges affect mmr? I know it wouldnt 100% solve the issue but if every dodge was like -10lp/mmr I'd think that it would feel bad enough for people to stop doing it outside of actual emergencies(only real use case)
@GoWon42@drewlevin You can only dodge a maximum of twice a day after the first 3(https://t.co/Ae3tGlMyGY)
Which at a rate of -10lp per dodge(speculative) would take you 2 months straight of dodging to go from the top of gold to the bottom of iron(1/2)
@pentaless1 No more smurfing == more people playing on main == less time in queue. Dodging is still quite problematic, but this is a step in the right direction
@drewlevin In regards to bought accounts, is there any reason why riot cant just recognize and ban when an account was botted to 30, inted 5 norms, then gets bought by someone else? It seems like the first part is easy to spot, then that account changes pw, email, and then->rank?
