So I was playing a ranked game and I experienced a brownout...

The brownout disconnected me, and after 30ish minutes our power came back on again. I then checked to see if my team won without me and they did, however I got lower priority queue but earned a victory for the ranked game, but lost LP. Yea, bad luck and stuff, as riot "punished" me because it's impossible to tell if you DCed on purpose or not. So why exactly did I win even though I DCed?

A brownout is when voltage is lowered and lights dim, most brownouts are controlled and used to shut off certain transformers while still providing power to people. A brownout could have made him lag but " after 30ish minutes our power came back on again" is not a brownout. What he described is a blackout

Yeah.....being room mates with two electrical engineer majors will do that kind of stuff to you. They would sleep like 2 hours a day and spent all night working on circuits homework and diffy.

Your team won so it's a victory...you leaving doesn't make the enemy team default win.
