Fix your game Riot

Im tired of having to go into ranked games and seeing two or even three afks in base for 1 minute or even 2:30 minutes in the timer and then they just magically reconnect and say they had a bug crash and Riot wont give us back our LP. It has never gotten this bad. This is beyond unfair and stupid. You expect me to not flame when they come back and lose the rest of the team LP. No. I will flame. It is unacceptable. I am tired of face tanking a fucking red or blue buff just because my jungler didnt connect in time and is running their ass off to the buff while I have to then pop two potions and lose a whole wave of xp just to lose later in the game because the enemy has levels and gold above me and my teammates. Im trying to be a good summoner and hope they come back while I sacrifice my whole laning phase just to ensure we have jungle pressure. I dont even like it when it happens to my opponents. I hate gaining free LP. I play this game to have fun and interact and have an actual challenge that starts off fair. I do not want someone to ruin the remake and see one of the enemy laners get to lane at lvl 1 while the ally has already 30 cs and at level 3. Early game is too important for this shit to be around. FIX IT!!! I never report an AFK now because I understand the game crashes a lot more now. If they do leave in the middle I will report. I respect the players who just let the team remake and then they lose a small bit of LP instead of losing 120 team players worth of it. Stop reporting people who dont fully connect in the very beginning of the match. In most scenarios it is Riots fault for them reconnecting to the point of no return. Either implement a system that tell us if we have disconnected or implement a system that tells us we have disconnected. You already took forever to implement post death stats.

They dont lose a small bit of LP! THAT IS THE FUCKING PROBLEM! They lose the whole amount. Like if they would lose a game. When i dont connect to game after champ select and i know i will lose 17 LP if i cant reconnect in time i do everything to connect to the game and try to win this. Dont blame those people. Blame Riot! Often you need to restart your game and close all processes with Task Manager. If you can do that fast enough you can make it back in time. But sometimes you even have to restart your PC.

Also i often reconnected when the game was already running for 2 minutes. Yes i had no leashe but we could still win the game most of the time. So dont tell me you would not try to reconnect and lose 17 LP game after game after game, if you know you can still win a game after reconnect. You would try it too!

AFKs are a problem, but their entire ranked system is a problem. Its an actual joke. I just had a bronze 1 playing in a Gold Elo game and unrankeds who are somehow playing in a gold elo level but are clearly bronze or iron.

I dunno, looking back to how it originally was, I am glad they have the rematch system in place. There was times you'd connect and a person would just leave from the beginning on a smurf or alternate account to just lose the other 4 players LP. So just be glad there is some sort of rematch function to the game, even if it happens to you, it can still save you LP another time if someone else AFKs.
