Wanna know what's even worse than having one person AFK?
Two people who are AFK because they are "Duos"
I come to wonder why doesn't rank have one of those pause system things like they do in custom games. Like you're only allowed to pause a game when a player in your team is D/C'd
But of course if that were to be implemented people will complain "The wait is too long!" so I wouldn't know how in the world this AFK issue in rank can be fixed.
My only thought is when the game notices a team mate is d.c'd, that team doesn't lose LP but the enemy gains half the LP. That's it.
I mean come on, it's only fair for both teams. And by half gaining LP I mean like 10-15LP depending how the LP gains are working for each player.
