Please explain me why i have to lose points for someone afk
It's so difficult to give a lose prevented when someone is afk? I'm sick of this situation. This is not fair at all

Loss prevented occurs when **Riot ** servers have problems that disconnect people or create major lag/problems. That is the only time it will happen, here an one reason why.
Imagine your playing ranked and your team sucks, you don't want a loss, so you AFK or a friend your playing with AFKs, then it become loss prevented and you just dodged a loss.
As stated by 12Tales, you will get points when someone on the opposing team AFKs, so it is fair(unless you are profoundly unlucky)
If you really want to avoid it, joining or creating a team would probably fix it
AFK teammates will reduce as your rank goes up, you can push through it
Because you gain points when some dude on the other team afks.
An impossible problem to address because it is subject to abuse. I agree, but I doubt riot will be willing to do anything.
i dont even know why u mad. if rito put up loss prevented everyone is going to abuse the fuck out of it since they can just duo que and if u guys are about to lose u can just call ur partner to afk and save ur LP. Im pretty sure u are not the only one who is sick and tired of afks we all are but we just have to deal with it -sorry for my bad english
If so, you can get loss prevented easily if you're playing duo queue with premade, if you're losing a match he/she can go afk and give team loss prevented. That's also not fair. But I agree, this is a major issue for me too, why should I lose 17-23 IP if someone goes afk...
I think Riot Lyte mentioned that their new Leave Buster system is going to aggressively target/punish AFKs and DCs. Solution incoming soon!
I think the solution to the other comments I've read is to make the loss prevention occur when the AFK has been AFK for a high percentage of the game (let's say 50%). This way it could not be abused as a last second ditch. Alos if the AFK loss prevention didn't decrease the LP game of the winning team, then everyone could be happy.
Good news: 5th promo went to hell for an other afk, i'm litterally stucked in my league for afkers
Basically because they feel that it will even out over time, and everyone suffers the same. Obviously this isn't the case, but that's their logic. Expecting everyone's experiences to work out to be average is a bit odd though.
When you gain LP in ranked, you are essentially taking those points from the other team. If they don't lose any points, the winners can't gain any points. It wouldn't be fair for a team that flat-out won to be denied points because someone on the losing team decided to afk 3 minutes before the game ended.
