The performance bonus is, if you perform above your expected level So basically, it is given for people that are playing above their current rank Basically, they’re performing above the games expectations for their visual rank so it’s giving them a boost to get them quickly to their rank that they’re expected to perform it

Sorry I got a little bit confused with who got the performance bonus That person who receives the performance bonus is the one that is performing above their rank expectations Performance bonuses are received when you perform better. So if you perform better than other matches you have played you would receive it. It also doesn't have to be just about kills, A lot of different factors are taking into account to see if I got performance bonus

First of all you're a higher rank From the screenshots you provided you are gold three and they are low gold 2 Meaning that he is most likely playing against people that are higher overall ranks that they are not supposed to be playing against

Like let's say you're kayo has the best flashes and is enabling your dualists to completely destroy the other team. Who deserves to be praised more the dualists or the person actually enabling the dualists to play the role?
