Try CBR 3500 instead. Drop the Q-10. People shouldn't try streaming in Q-10 as far as I'm concerned, it's a waste of bandwidth and just ends up making things look worse actually. Anyhow, if your connection can support it, just do CBR 3500 and see if remains blurry.

Won't help? You have tried it or you're just assuming it won't work? Regarding showing us -- You're streaming LoL, right? So, just show us a past broadcast.

Regarding CBR 3500. Just as an example: DOTA2, 3500 Kbps, CBR with these settings in OBS. Looks fine, right?

One thing you may also want to try is toning LoL's graphics a bit. And run an upload test. Make sure you pick a server near you. Toning down the graphics will ensure that CPU and GPU are always able to encode a particular frame and the upload test is to make sure you can in fact stream at 3500 Kbps.
