I'm silver 5 I got 27 LP and I just lose 20LP cause a thresh who was afk from the start of the game...! I want to suggest you something to avoid situations like that in the future.... A good idea would be **riot to create bot to take the place of the champion when a summoner go afk **(at least at ranked games). That could protect lots of players. The team that left behind is not response if someone go afk.....!

Please SHARE this if you thing that it need to be......!

(I'm not talking about normal bots I'm talking about pro-bots, created to play on ranked games only)

I've read this suggestion before. People unanimously disagreed with it on the grounds that the game's AI is terrible.

Well considering that killing a bot without even trying is an easy task even for b5 players, i think that such a counter-measure against AFKs would bring up more problems that it would actually solve. Having a bot in your team would make the game even more unbalanced as the enemy team would have an easy gold source to take advantage of while the team that plays with a bot would not only be minus one player ( BOTS cannot think or take decisions , their moves are merely based on game patterns so they do not count as a player ) but it would also have to do something for the immense gold amounts which the bot had given up to the enemy team. Once you get a better feel of the game, and by that i mean expand your gameknowledge, you will see for yourself that 4v5s are actually viable providing that you maintain your calm and you do not give up objectives by getting caught or doing other silly mistakes.

Not a good idea. Enemy team will just feed itself on the bot, it will be even worse than playing 5v4.

Truthfully, I'd rather play 4 v 5 than with a bot. Bots are stupid and will always feed.

In many ways, that'd be worse: At least if the afk is at base, they can't be killed for free gold by the enemy team.

Plus, what if the jungler or something DCs? Bots can't jungle, so it'll probably just walk into whatever lane it feels like, leach your gold/exp, and feed horribly. Heck, doesn't even have to be a jungler, for some reason Top could DC and the bot decides the best place to be is midlane.

A free farm bot? No.

well i was waiting for this discuss a long time ago so i suggest riot to demote the afk a whole division and give a loss prevented to the team who had the afk

I would love to call jungle and have my client crash and come back only to find that my bot replacement fed two kills to the enemy top lane.

The bots are so bad that they're probably worse than an AFK in like anything higher than bronze V. They'd probably just be easy gold for the other team.
