Since you refuse to do anything about AFK in ranked,

Make it so I can block and not queue with people who afk in the future.

This way people who routinely AFK will have a harder and harder time getting match ups and not fuck anyone else's games. Community policing at its finest.

Had similar idea, but not speifically against afks, but in general against "undesirables". Trolls, int-feeders, afks, e-bay accounts, toxic players etc.. In my idea you could only ban players from matchmade WITH YOU. So if you ban a player, then he might appear in enemy team still.

  1. problem: As we know everyone hates good players. People DESPISE when someone has skill, and take it as personal offense to be carried. Even worse when the good player is in enemy team. /s Now to be serious. One argument is that people would ban good players, and that would prevent them from playing. Might be true on super high ranks.

  2. problem: Jerks couldn't play at some point, because they would be banned by everyone. And there are plenty of jerks around, that might buy skins. Preventing them from playing might mean profit loss.

Problem with that is that they are going to abuse the system by also blocking people that they consider bad. Congrats, you have now just fked the match making.

Afks are punished when they do it too often.

This is a really really dumb idea. If you want do know how dumb it is, go through your match history and see how often you end up in the same game with even a single person. Only in Diamond 1 and up do you play with the same people regularly.
