Dodge Penalties

Lemon of Despair··2 votes·183 views

TLDR; Make a 'rude player/uncooperative' button in pregame lobby where if 4 out of the 5 people hit the button for someone, the whole game is dropped, the rude gamer gets a penalty, the others do not. This way when you're playing ranked and a TROLL doesn't give two shits about teamplay, the team can kick them and start a new search.

I have had to quit out of my last two ranked games in pre-game lobby due to trolls who think they are above teamwork... Either I am first pick and coordinate with another teammate to pick their champ so we can switch and some troll autolocks the position i was trading for with no regard.. or some guy who is 4 or 5th pick who ONLY plays top so when we need an ADC, he picks garen or something... I worked really hard the other day (almost more then half my day, which many would consider a complete waste of time) to rank up. I had awesome teams who talked with each other and worked as a team... but since then, Ive lost 2 games, one to a rage quitter (so we had a 4v5, which btw, how have you guys NOT found a solution to that problem yet??? It RUINS your game when it happens and i've heard of many other games that resolve this issue...), and the other to people autolocking the ONE character they take to ranked games. So I propose a system in pregame lobby, where if 4 out of 5 people "mark" a problem-ed player in lobby (probably like the same system you have for honors), the game quites out and that player has an 'asshole' penalty timer... where the other players do not. I honestly just thought of that solution while i was writing this.. it isn't that hard, and you already have most of the code structure there..hopefully my 30 min timer is down now..

the reason i'm sure this isn't in affect is to abuse. We want you to play cait adc, oh you said no? BOOM all 4 hit it. You never know some people would find a way 2 abuse it and second it would never work with a duo que since the duo would always refuse to vote against there duo que? I'm not disagreeing but this "solutioin" has been stated countless times and riot still has not even glanced at it

What foxy said. Maybe it wouldn't be an issue, but I'm not sure any one will ever quit contributing money to riot because trolls have to be dodged and the penalty isn't that bad. I guarantee people will boycott shit over any system that ever makes it so that you can get punished for playing something different. I'm a shitty silver player, and I play Heimer mid and top mostly. Occasionally I've had people complain that I'm gonna play Heimer, and even had people be like "No, we already have a mid and you can't play Heimer top." I have like a 65% win rate over 90+ games on him and prefer to play him top over mid honestly, and I'm even considering not waiting to buy his skins on sale since I like playing him enough. If I could lose LP and get a time restriction bc someone didn't want me to play Heimer top and wanted a tank instead (even though I have a better chance of winning the game w/ Heimer if statistics are considered) I'd be super pissed. It might not happen often, but the punishment is significantly worse than the benefit in terms of the people it does hurt, so I don't see this ever being done.

I agree with exiting the game, if some is being an ass in champ select I don't want to play with them, on the other side, if my entire team is against what I want to do, they are going to rage at me and i am not going to enjoy the game with them. Solve the problem there and let us not play together instead of one of us getting punished for not wanting to play with that group.

So what if more games get canceled, I would rather wait a bit longer for a game with people i might enjoy playing with than play 20-30 minutes of hell with a team I don't like just so I don't get punished.
