There are two big problems with penalizing dying:
Thus I believe that losing RP each time you die is a bad idea.
Hot drop is not a thing in Diamond rank. I specified that everything below Diamond is fine right now. Diamond is where the real problems begin.
Platinum you can hot drop, Diamond you have dedicated drops, you don't get to pick.
My suggestions are just ideas, I welcome better ideas on how to mitigate and punish toxic and damaging behaviors that hold back ranked in diamond and up. But I bring Diamond up specifically as it is the skill ceiling for players with JUST aim and no tactical sense. Players who do not develop strategy, won't get out of diamond with just aggressive solo players, they MIGHT get out with a triple stack of course. Which is fine. My critique is targeted at the toxic solo aggressive players who do not adapt to the random teams they get. It's a difficult problem to solve. But I think the psychology aspect I brought up does need to be taken into account for the health of the game and the enjoyment of the players. Instead of letting toxic sabotaging players take over the game.
It IS a problem to be solved diamond and up.
