League of Legends developer Riot Games has announced changes to top rewards for the game’s popular MOBA honor system and introduced a new set of skins for players who have shown exemplary behavior throughout. of the season on the League of Legends leaderboard.
According to a new blog from the studio, the “Three Honors” skins will be released this season and will debut with a gorgeous new look for Malzahar. According to Hana “TimTamMonster” Dinh, Product Manager of Behavior Systems, new skins will replace the currently released Riot colors for Medieval Twitch and Gray Warwick every year.
So how can players earn as much honor as possible to get these exclusive cosmetics? TimTamMonster says that if you’re consistently positive, you’ll get into the good books of the system. Additionally, being part of a coordinated team rather than just your friends will grant more credit as a precaution to avoid “Friendly Honor Swapping”. Oh, and if everyone on your matchmaking team honors another player, guess what? More credit to you.
TimTamMonster also notes that there is a hierarchy as to which command gets the most credits:
- Arranged Solo and Arranged Flex
- Normal, ARAM and Event modes
- AI versus collaboration
The developer says this “reflects the stakes as well as the amount of social interaction each queue provides.”
Conversely, of course, negative behavior can both affect the pace of your honor level and cause your level to drop overall.
Before deactivating, TimTamMonster explains that a number of exciting updates are on the way, including Riot’s ability to “rate live text in-game”, giving League systems the ability to deactivate players. unruly in real time. Pre-built lobbies also have their own text channels, providing another method to prevent abuse by those who don’t put a “mate” in their “teammate” at all.
Perhaps the most exciting change is that players will finally be able to report toxic players in the middle of the game soon.
But as TimTamMonster points out, it’s not just about preventing and eliminating toxicity, Riot is also working to improve your ability to replay with people you’ve enjoyed playing with in the past by giving you easy ways to party. I honor you.”
With flashy new rewards and a host of highly anticipated features coming to League, Riot is clearly building on the positive changes seen since the introduction of Honor Boosters earlier this year.
