Should Riot add vote kick option in solo ranked games ?

I think it would be better for all player in general if we get option to kick trollers from ranked games before game even start,remake is a good thing but it kinda only fixes problems with people who are afk. Alot of games preaty much suck becouse people just dont know how to play or they just dont care or the classic can i mid/adc/top and when ppl dont want to swap lanes they just feed or troll pick a champ unfit for their role. So i think simple vote from players could fix this issues alot becouse almost all my bad experiences with this game come from trollers not buggs or unbalanced champs.

I understand your thought process. I hate to be so negative, but I think this is a poor system to have in a game that has a terrible community. No one can deny that League fits the description.

As a slight disagreement, I don't think someone should be kicked just for being bad, unless they are going 0-10 as Janna every game. Then they need practice for sure. Apart from that, vote to kick afk would be a 4v5 either way so everyone gets the same "punishment" in lost LP. From personal experience, in CS:GO I got kicked from a competitive/ranked game once for telling someone to stop saying a racially profane term (the team thought I was a "pansy" and unanimously agreed to kick me), and then when I got in to my next game, I told someone I was muting them for consistently swearing and calling everyone autistic (the fact that he was using it as an insult is the problem, obviously), and I almost immediately got kicked from the game by my team for saying that. I was then given a 24 hour matchmaking suspension for "unsportsmanlike behavior."

It would be wonderful if it was possible to have an incredible replacement for the "tribunal system" that could somehow ban every offender, even if only for 48 hours at a time, but that just isn't realistic.

Very easy to abuse and cause more problems. So, no.

Only if someone voting to kick someone without cause is punished. If someone wants to go Bard top, that isn't a bannable offence, so it shouldn't be kickable(it actually works for many people). Basically, if someone is raging in chat and says they are going to feed, or is raging and cussing out everyone, then the thing would go through without a hitch. If someone just wanted to do something unusual, say a Snare Sisters bot lane in a comp with everyone else being ad, that should cause the people trying to kick the players to be punished in some way(maybe can no longer start kicking processes?).

Basically, if there was a punishment to trying to wield the kicking like a whip, people would be less likely to use it when it is unwarranted.
