Best thing about the new ranked on PBE so far.....

If you get paired with the same individuals from last game that were toxic, you can choose not to ban someone and the game will exit and you lose no LP. Played a game where our Thresh went 1-20 and simply built Tears all game. Got him again in 3 subsequent lobbies and was able to dodge them all without incurring any penalties. Sucks, cause everyone else that doesn't know is angry at you, but you are honestly doing them a favour.

Are you sure Ranked PBE actually affects LP?

Well you have LP gains and losses; however I am not sure if being kicked back to the search menu without LP loss and no re-queue timers is what Riot had in mind. Personally I think it's brilliant since if you don't like the team comp, or if you have toxic people currently in your chat from last game or the current game, this lets you exit without being punished, I feel that was the whole point of getting a team builder format for ranked; if you don't like the teams, then leave.
