Kharazim is a kick option, have you concidered taking him with insight so you can spam the “kick”?

Would you really want a “kick option” and be left with an ai?

In my personal opinion, no

But you can. Just Alt+F4 and you will kick the most unimportant player in your team out of the game.

Honestly yes in some cases.

Had some varian rage one game because I asked if he ever planned on joining the team, since he was top for the first 7 minutes of the game. He replied with “now you’ll have to carry, I quit.” And proceeded to run around and occasionally attack minions for the entire game, like a child. So yeah, I would have much rather have had a bot.

For everytime the kick option would used correctly, there would be 3 times where it would be used incorrectly.

I agree with this too. For it to even kind of work, it would have to pass all 4 votes.

4man silver party + random gold

I can already see how this is not going to work properly even in those cases.

If there has to be a kick option, it must have a very strict and harsh limit. So that when you abuse it, you are going to regret it the next game. For example:

  • You gain 1 kick point per game
  • You can stack up to 30
  • Votekicks cost 10 points if they succeed, 5 points if they failed.
  • For bigger parties, more points are consumed (for example a 2man group costs 12, 3man = 14, 4man and 5man = 16). This is on a ratio base, so a failed 4man group vote would cost 8 points.

As a result:

  • Obtaining 1 potential kick option once per 10 games.
  • While still being required to have a full agreement of 4 to make it pass.
  • If it fails, it takes 5 games to recover that failed vote.
  • Sure, you can stack up 3 votes to at least make it a bit more graceful to those that truly barely use it.
  • Depending on the group size, more kick points are consumed. This makes you think on which teammates you obtain, and since you can generaly plan better, makes the agreement more strict.

This way abusers are quickly going to learn that randomly voting for a kick is barely going to work. They will be out of stacks and get frustrated the most in it.
And especialy those 4 man groups are going to find it painful to kick the random 2 times when he disagrees but otherwise was playing fine, and then witnessing they cannot kick a true feeder the 3rd time.

And its better to have it too strict at first and adjust it later on, than to make it a 4man group trolling tool itself from the start.

No.

Very often inexperienced players outnumber good players. And they figure the good player is doing something wrong because they don’t understand what he’s doing.

maybe add a feature that gives you the option to enter games that have ai replacements, you replace the ai and get bonus rewards for entering these games.

and yes some players are worse than ai, at least ai can be told what to do. lots of players dont even know what an objective is

Rather play with a toxic person than an AI.

That’s how bad the game is lol
