Kudos system
my biggest recurring frustration with this game is the lack of ability to compliment other players. People tend to vacate the post game quickly and there are not many means of communication you have other than in-game actions, which can be, up to interpretation. What I would like to see is a system to send one of a few preset compliments to other players after the match. stuff like "smart play" or "good chase", that pops up in a little unintrusive notification on their screen. no need for rewards or anything, and its probably better without it, but it would be nice to have a little way to compliment others for playing well

No point in adding something only a few dozens of people will ever use. The game already has the ability to "thumb up" a player in the report menu, and nobody uses it. The reverse system of -reps would be in much higher demand though, but then you would get 4 notifications after every killer game.

If the 'thumbs up' feature could be tracked, that would be a decent way of doing things. Just like a running total of how many you've received.
If there was an achievement to 'receive 100 thumbs up' or something to that effect, I think people would use it more, because they would want to receive them themselves. And you know you won't receive any if you play like a complete dick.
I think negativity breeds more negativity, but likewise positivity encourages more positivity. The game is a bit of a toxicity sinkhole right now and something like this could help smooth things out a little.

The fact the "thumbs up" feature really doesn't do anything is a shame. It doesn't need a crazy change, they could do it so the person who receives a thumbs up gets a small BP bonus.
The Multiversus beta had a feature that worked just like this (not sure if it's in the current version of the game too) and it definitely motivated players to reward respectful behavior / good plays. It will never change negative behavior obviously, but it would turn a lot of neutral behavior into positive behavior so it'd definitely be a felt change by the community.

Incentivizing positive behavior is pretty much always a good idea.

I just want to be able to donate BP like this

I love giving people thumbs up. I am pretty sure it does nothing, but if I see them again in queue I tell them I did it lol.
This is a good suggestion and I feel it too. Like if someone tries really hard to save you from a tunnel but you don't want to sit there for fifteen minutes to see if they get out, like why the heck WOULDN"T you want your players to give each other thumbs up. Like whats the downside? I guess you could be sad if you didn't get as many as you wanted.
IDK I have been playing league for years and its so toxic man, but honestly they worked really hard on their honour system and at first it was just something like that, like a thumbs up that did nothing but gave you a little notification and not that many people used it at first (though I did lol, of course I did, as if you wouldn't want to?) and they just reworked and reworked it and I honestly feel like it makes a difference now. Like I'm not gonna tell you league isn't toxic cause it is, but honestly players respond to stuff like this.2 -
LoL has a honor frame, when you get honor you "advance" and get better frames (or something similar)... Something like that would be nice. An end game screen with "Honor a player" and "Kudos to the killer" would be nice

As the others have said, I agree that the thumbs up button needs to be better implemented.
Being in the report screen is… Kinda lame and not many people go out of their way to use it, myself included.
