Please no, after ff@15 came in I've had so many more people give up and or troll in my games if surrender votes don't come through.

Hence the reason I said unanimous and there has to be an AFK for this one to work. If you have an AFK before 10 minutes, you're not winning. Unless you drag a game out for 40 minutes and your comp can deal with a missing person. But in most cases, it's not possible.

Premades or duos will have someone afk, or harass their team to afk, then troll/int to surrender the game.

I'm sorry, but what kind of situation would have to happen to cause that.

I literally have never seen these hypothetical situations happen with the remake system, so I completely doubt it will happen (at least extremely rarely) with a 10-minute surrender system.

If it hypothetically does happen then you can report them and move on. There is no question that they'll be banned for harassment, and they'll definitely get banned if they int if you report it to Riot.

I've seen people sabotage games so their team is more likely to surrender at 15, so anything is possible.

There is no question that they'll be banned for harassment, and they'll definitely get banned if they int if you report it to Riot.

What about my lp? If a team is genuinely all in agreement that they want to get the game over with, they can open mid. We don't need to give people who give up over the slightest thing any more ways to quit early.

slightest thing

AFK

I'd argue we have two differing opinions on the definition of "slightest thing"

You're more likely to gain LP by surrendering early in a game with an afk and going to the next game than you are to continue to play it out unless you have significant advantages against the enemy team.

Also, how many people are we talking have given up and started trolling at 15 minutes in your experience? Since that change has come out I have yet to see it happen in my games. The only games I open mid to give up to surrender at 15 minutes are ones with afks in it.

I've had 5 in my past 20 games. Granted, one of the games they did start trying at around 27 minutes after I started to hard carry, but it still was not enjoyable to play with.
