I just left a big post about just that. Hopefully riot can support a system where the loss prevention system can be automated.

I don't think Riot will. in a situation like that the team of 4 has the LP protected. but what about the winning team do they keep their LP at the same level or gain more?

if they gain more then there will be a inflation of LP in the system allowing more people to become plat and diamond.

idk if inflation is a major deal to riot but I know they certainly do not want more people in high ranks.

no say they keep they're LP level at the same. as soon as that happens you would have somebody post into these forums saying "why don't I gain LP for this win my team did everything correct" which turns this into a circle of forum posts of life.

I can see the thought there. My post before this one talks about punishment for the person who afked as well. The idea is, the winning team gets the same amount of IP for winning and why wouldn't they? They had to play the 35/45 minutes game. It is just protecting those who might be in a promotion or being demoted because of an afk person. If the person is truly skilled at league they will climb the ladder at the appropriate rate for their skill level. Meaning that a gold skill player will not be stuck in silver because of lower teir BS. They will make their way to gold and stay there until their skills improve to a higher caliber.

Just cancel the win as well....why would you be mad for not getting lp for a game you didnt deserve to win?

Cancel both lost and win and punish afk player...end of story

Better idea; No one loses, losing costs you NOTHING, Absolutely NOTHING! League of Winners, where losing a game doesn't dock LP, you just win win win win, so any grinder who spends 100 hours a week in game will be Challenger based on what? Not skill, not needed to climb, not it's just PLAY PLAY!!!!

... Why don't I get loss prevented when my Dr Pepper is empty and I need to run to the fridge? I was afk for 27 seconds, so I missed CS... i want loss prevented.

My team mate took the lane I wanted, so i had to go to a lane I am not good at, I want Loss Prevented for when I don't perform optimally.

Oh, and make sure that every time the other team has an AFK, they cancel my Win, as the other team got Loss Prevented...

Come to think of it, why don't see see any complaints about not getting a "Win Prevented" added to the game? When people win these 4v5's I don't see them coming to the forums and complaining? Why?

One your reasoning is completely flawed in thinking that he wants it just because he lost. If you look their team was up in kills, obviously better mechanics, but because of the NUMBER advantage on the enemy team they lost. The amount of damage or support ONE player puts out is always going to out weigh mechanical skills.

Second, if you have nothing worthwhile to add, it is probably better you don't make yourself look bad on the forums where thousands of people read daily.

I dont remind ever getting a free win because ennemy team had a afk...stopped counting lost duw to afk however...matchmaking seem very unfair to me in that matter....

Still...if i eved did won a 4 vs 5 game..mi would not ming having it prevented and not winning lp-promo ue to it....because it work both way...free win duw to infair 4vs 5 nowhere a legit win to begin with anyway...game like that should be cancelled period.

I mean look at the exemple i posted...we actually put a fight and where up in kill....there is no way we would have lose 5 vs 5...those guy didnt deserve to winand we didnt deserve to lose...

They should do like dota do...if a player afk withing the first 5 minute..game is cancelled no mmr lost and played in faut is punished for leaving.
