20 minutes just seems annoyingly long in some games. Yes I've heard the argument, "every game is winnable", but some really just aren't, and are a complete waste of time. When I have two dc's on my team, I don't want to have to waste 20 minutes just to lose in a more long and painful fashion.
Leti the Yeti2 votes20 minutes is fine, the issue is people are not surrendering and it takes about another 15 minutes of failing to convince them Enemy has slain baron we surrendering now? no enemy pentakill! ace! how bout now? no enemy quadrakill ace! how about now? no enemy doubekill! Akali is godlike enemy triple kill! master yi is legendary ace! how bout now? no enemy team has slain the nexus! kay ff
Sir ArmaMalum1 votesThe thing about 20 minutes is that that's when all the gameplay elements are up and accounted for, i.e. baron spawn. Just explaining where that number comes from.
I 100% agree with you there should be an action available if someone dc'd and never connected in the first place but the biggest issue with a dc in the middle of a game is that that's abusable. Simply, if you can get a benefit by someone dc'ing that's supplying an incentive to disconnect intentionally, either for you or for your team. Thus, flaming with the sole intent of getting someone to leave will inevitably happen.

Kaisha1 votesIn season 4 I think I hit yes to surrender a total of maybe 4 times the entire season. In season 5 there's so much snowball, if they're ahead by 10 kills three's no point. It could be 10 min or 30 min, the outcomes the same. In fact out of every game I've played in season 5, if a team ever got ahead by 10 kills, no matter what else happened, they never lost. Not once have I seen a comeback yet. Even when players DC, or the game played out 50+ min, the team ahead early game always won.
I hate season 5... S4 sucked compared to S3 but I'd go back to S4 in a heartbeat of this abomination....
