RE: SPS Governance Proposal - Rework Leaderboard Rewards

Howdy, b4 I answer. Just like to add on a point that the banning/nerf applies to all league but not necessary the same card/stats as bronze lvl LAMA+KRON vs Diamond lvl maynot hve the same dominance play ( it's an example, not necessary true )

Who or what will do this research and decide what card will be nerfed in what way? You will do this in the future ?

I don't hve the brains & expertise but just sharing some random thoughts for you lots to ponder.

Banning Score = (Power Level * w_1) + (Format Dominance * w_2) + (Play Patterns * w_3) + (Community Feedback * w_4) + (Tournament Results * w_5) + (Accessibility and Cost * w_6)

Where:
- Power Level: A numerical measure of the card's power in the game.
- Format Dominance: A measure of how much the card or deck dominates the current league metagame.
- Play Patterns: An assessment of whether the card leads to interesting or repetitive gameplay.
- Community Feedback: A score based on players feedback and concerns.
- Tournament Results: Performance of the card or deck in high-level tournaments.
- Accessibility and Cost: Consideration of the card's impact on accessibility and cost for players.
- ( w_1, w_2, w_3, w_4, w_5, w_6 ): Weights assigned to each criterion to reflect their relative importance.

The weights ( w_1, w_2, w_3, w_4, w_5, w_6) would be arbitrary values based on the perceived importance of each criterion. A higher weight indicates a greater influence on the banning decision. In practice, determining these weights would involve a combination of game design expertise, player feedback analysis, and an understanding of the game's overall balance.

For start, we could create a "BAN/NERF/COOLING" vote page which refreshes evry season/month. Account holders ( limit to 1 per account per season/month) submit a card name or ID they deemed OP/unbalance ( submit a battle reference ID if possible ) . Then we list out the top 5 card that the community deemed is OP/Unbalance for DEV to find adjustment (nerfing).

ANother method was to gather inputs from :

• Summonerlab
• Splinterguide
• Splintercoach

Tht's just some random thoughts....😃
