LoL ranked decay is the system that quietly drains your LP if you stop queueing at Diamond or above. Stop playing for two weeks at Master and you’ll come back to about 1,050 LP gone. Stop for a month at Diamond and you’ll lose half your LP. It only affects the top 5% of the playerbase, but it punishes them at a pace that makes vacations genuinely scary if you don’t manage the bank.<\/p>\n
This is the boost-team breakdown of how decay actually works in the current season – bank sizes, LP loss per tick, the floor at Master, what the 2026 hard reset did to everyone’s decay clock, and the bare-minimum queue schedule that keeps you safe. Numbers are pulled from Riot’s published rules and what we see across active boost orders.<\/p>\n
