Ranked Queue w/ no surrender

There should be a ranked queue, same as the current in ranking, that you can queue up in where you can't surrender. The idea being that if you aren't going to give it your 100% effort to win until your nexus is dead, you shouldn't be in this queue. I don't care how long the wait time is I'd rather wait 20 minutes for a game where I don't get griefed and people give up at 15 when we pick a scaling team. If you get enough bans in this ranked lobby for giving up you get suspended from joining the queue. Any thoughts? Do you guys think this would work? Other than the queue time I can't think of many reasons why this shouldn't work.

Dota 2 doesn't have surrender and it most certainly does not make people try harder. People rage and int in that game just as much as in league, if not more. What it does do though is create situations where the enemy team refuses to end because they want to keep killing you, but you have absolutely no hope of mounting a comeback. So even if you open the game won't end.

Being tiltproof is a skill like any other. You wouldn't think of creating a special queue getting rid of people not csing enough, or not properly using their wards.

Giving up is just a more obvious flaw in their gameplay, but if you didn't have to play with them, another smaller group would form into your new environment and start being picky about the second most common mistake, and so on.

You can't expect 4 other players to patiently wait for you to farm veigar Q stacks as they get dove on by roaming mid laners.

If 4 other people on your team want to surrender, and you hold them hostage, I think that makes you the "griefer"

Its the solo queue grind mentality, nobody wants a 50 minute game... the goal is to get as many Ws as possible in a session. So spending 50 minutes on a potential loss isn't smart from that perspective.

The longer you drag out a losing game, the more your kda and your desire to play goes down.

But I vote no for every ff if the score isn't something like 1 kill for us and 20 kills for them.

So I 99% of the will never FF a game if it is Ranked.

Last night I had a perfect example of it. Smurf Fiddle Jungler was toxic to the team because he ganked bot lane and they were so bad they all died.

He was "GG FF@15 games over" and it was 7m in.

I would not FF and so the game kept going. Fast forward to 45m in and even tho bot lane kept feeding, Me (Top) and this Smurf Fiddle were able to pull it off and we won because I scaled to late and Fiddle understood how to close a game out. He was still Toxic all game but that is what the mute button is for.

Give players the option to queue with forfeit disabled then priority queue them with others who do the same.

The people that give up will just sit in base or troll to make the game end faster LMAO.

Fuck no. You don't get to go 0 fuckin 9 in a lane and then hold me hostage in an unwinnable game. Fuck that. I will grief the fuck out of games if surrender was ever removed.
