The law of averages is not ok.

Just for the devs and people who trawl the boards looking for comments:

The law of averages is not an acceptable solution to ranked game AFK's.

It would be better if a team mate goes afk for more than 7.5 minutes, that loss prevention goes into effect, the game is nullified for winners and losers in terms of LP gains, and a notice (like the remake notice) pops up and says that the match can be FF'd without loss.

In terms of long term game health for the community, it is a QOL improvement that should not be overlooked.

What happens to the player that feeds early then refuses to afk so you lose LP anyway.

What happens when someone disconnects? Then it becomes a race for the other team to finish in 7.5 mins or not get credit for the win and the remaining 4 just need to defend base for 7.5 mins to avoid LP loss and deny the other team a win.

Doesn't seem like an improvement to me.

People who just spent 20 minutes stomping another team into the ground should not get punished because one person decides to rage quit.
