LoL Honor Rewards	How To Unlock
Key Fragments	Everyone who’s level 1 or above gets all their free key fragments by just playing games without getting hit with penalties Earning Honor votes is NOT required to get your keys. Winning is no longer required to earn keys. Keys no longer drop at end-of-game, but periodically while outside of queue.
Honor Capsule	LoL Honor Level 3+ players earn Honor Capsule that includes a shot at exclusive Rewards. These are basically Key-Free Chest that has a high chance rate to drop key fragments and champion shards. They will begin to drop randomly once you earn Level 3 and even have a chance to drop Grey Warwick and Medieval Twitch. You have a chance to earn a Capsule with every key fragment drop. Your chances for getting a Capsule double each week as you play games. You’re guaranteed a Capsule within two months. Your drop rate resets after getting a capsule. You can only earn one capsule every three weeks.
End of Season Reward	Don’t forget players are expected to receive some sort of End of Season Reward if they manage a Level 3+ or higher within this new behavior system. Details on the rewards are to be announced later in the 2017 Season.

What happens to my LoL Honor when I get hit with Penalties?

1	Getting hit with penalties will level you down, and temporarily lock you out of rewards.
2	Your Honor lock state can be seen on your profile (only visible to you) and can be lifted by consistent sportsmanlike games.
3	You’ll get a notification when your penalty has been lifted, and your profile will update at the same time

If you get hit with enough penalties you may reach dishonorable status and will have to work your way back up.

LoL Honor

League of Legends New Honor System uses an end game Ceremony to award players with Honor. The more Honor you gain from allies allows you to level up and receive additional rewards for your sportsmen like behavior.

How Does The Honor Ceremony Work?

This is a two-stage process to the ceremony, the first stage is honoring a player. The second stage is at the end-game screen figuring out how much honor you received.

Honor Ceremony – How To Honor Players

1. A new voting screen appears after every Matchmade Game.

(You can only Honor one teammate per game.)

2. Mouse over a teammate, choose a category, then click to vote before time runs out. The new categories are:

Stayed Cool	That tilt-proof top laner who took a beating but didn’t give up.
Great Shotcalling	The Player who made a clutch Baron call after cleaning up a team fight.
GG <3	The player who saved your butt or even just cracked a good joke.

(There’s a Vote Skip button available.)

End Game Screen – Receiving Honor From Players

At the End of Game screen, you’ll see the honors you’ve received from other players.

If you receive the majority of the team’s honors, everyone sees a celebration over your summoner name.

At level 3+, a small gemstone will signal when you’ve unlocked loading screen flair in your next game

League of Legends Honor Levels

Everyone starts at Level 1.

You have a level that lasts all season.

How Do Level Up My Honor In LoL?

You max out your level at 5 by playing games and consistently playing to win.

Earning Honor game to game will level you up slightly faster, but honors are not required to level up.

You only lose levels by getting hit with penalties. Simply not receiving Honor will not level you down.

Every two weeks the meta changes, that means new champions are on the rise. You can view the strongest champions every patch here:
