Fix your broken game.
So I've been playing League for a little over a couple of months now. I've been playing it religiously almost every day with my girlfriend and friends, and having fun with the game. Theeeeen the bug started a little over a week ago.
Every time I pick my champion and wait at the loading screen, the game crashes and I have to reconnect. Only reconnecting isn't that easy. Usually I have to close the game using Task Manager just so I can reconnect quickly. "Quickly" meaning about 10 minutes after the game I joined started. When I can finally join back in the game, I'm kicked again for being idle. So, guess what? Gotta wait to reconnect again. At least I don't have to use task manager. So you know what all of this means? LeaverBuster.
I've never left a match or even gone AFK unless it's absolutely necessary. And when I do, I always reconnect or come back and catch up (unless I'm solo-ing Lane), so I've never had to deal with the LeaverBuster before. At first, 5 minute mark wasn't such a big deal. I figured it'd be fixed ASAP so I didn't really bother with it. Then when I tested the game again, I got suspended for 10 minutes each game. Got pretty aggravated. Now, when I test the game today, my friends and I have to wait 20 minutes to play a game all because of me. And it isn't even my damn fault. I shouldn't have to wait 20 minutes because Riot messed something up and my friends DEFINITELY shouldn't have to wait 20 minutes just to play a game with me. I understand games aren't perfect and they never will be. There will always be a few bugs and glitches here and there... but the fact that this hasn't been addressed by any of the staff so far is a little weird. This obviously is a type of bug that creates a VERY unbalanced game, which I thought Riot prided themselves for saying this game is a great balance. Welp, now it's about as balanced as a fat lady on a tricycle.
Either fix your game or be lenient with the LeaverBuster. Because right now Smite and DOTA are looking like a great alternative.
