Can we please get some IP from remaked games?

It usually takes 10 minutes to get into the champion select and start a game (at least for me), because sometimes players decline the match/leave champion select. Then, we wait around 2 minutes to get everyone ready into the game. Then the game finally starts and, 3 minutes later, the game is remaked? I mean, it's like wasting 15 minutes of your life since you don't get any IP rewards. What I'm suggesting is getting like 10-15 IP from a remaked game, it's not too much, but at least it's not a complete waste of like 15 minutes. Non-level 30 players could also get some XP.

Feel free to vote and to comment your opinion/ideas.

Thanks for reading.

The problem with that I think is how riot coded remakes. The reason they work is that games under 7 minutes in length don't give you rewards or count as wins/losses

10-15lp is way to much. I think 5lp is very fair considering the time spent.

Made a thread with the same concept over a month ago. Nothing feels worse than getting a bomb-ass team comp, waiting out the 5 minute champion select, 3 minute loading screen, 3 minutes ingame, then a remake passing and nobody gets exp for all that time wasted.

Additionally, they need to make it so that you can remake even if someone connected to the game. I've had someone connect to the game and never make it to lane countless times. At 3 mins when someone is still afk and level 1 you should be able to remake as if they never connected. Just because they connected to the game doesn't mean they're not going to afk for the entire match.

there should be some compensation for loosing your time. Add the queue time, which sometimes can go 10 mnts even when you sign to fill, several minutes for picks and bans...ye this stage takes quite long, then the loading screen and few mnts of "game", add another queue time, picks, loading and whatnot and you get over 30 minutes waiting to start a game which will last the same amount of time(and chances are your fun is screwed once more of a feeder or an afk)

how about a 10 IP extra for your next match to make up for the time lost due to the remake

My time is valuable

15-20 minutes of my life wasted and I dont get ANYTHING from it? Really?

To me this seems ABC123-level basic

Give us something at least.....

I made a post like this the day Remake started working. Got downvoted. This is needed. There should be a reward for spending 20 mins in queue and 5 mins in champ select.

nah I don't think we should, the only loss in LP are the people that caused the remake which is fair, its the whole reason remake was brought in because people whined about losing LP because of a leaver, I personally like how it is now compaired to before

I think that being able to not take a lose is a valuable enough reward.

yeah i think 10 to 15 is a bit much but this is a good idea. probly 1 to 5 IP would make it atleast FEEL like we didnt completely waste the time

I understand where you're coming from with this. I agree it would be nice to get at least some IP for these types of games, but I also see it from a different perspective: It's not Riot's fault that someone AFKed or DCed and although it does take wayyyyy more than three minutes to actually start the game, we really don't get much done in the first three minutes of the game. So that would be like Riot giving us IP for doing nothing. (except waiting to get the game started)

Amen. Especially during those times where I go "I really ahouldnt, but I'll squeeze one more game in tonight."

And then 15 later "oooooh sorry. No, you'll have to get back in the queue."

Awful idea. People'd just abuse it for "free" easy IP.

Which is why you should screw the remake system by going to the nearest enemy, letting them hit you, then suicide into a tower for first blood so they can't :)

Clarify in your post btw that its Influence Points not League Points btw.

Only if it was like 10-12 IP. Just so it's not a complete waste of time. Like a little gift for the team and opposing team that had to deal with this situation.
