I go on a losing streak, fine, then when I finally get a guaranteed free win it becomes a sure loss from my mid laner's comp crashing. The streak should have been broken, now it'll probably just continue to extend after i get fucking cheated by a guy who qued up for a ranked match knowing that he had a garbage computer and it might crash.
Is that the luck factor in this game, or a luck factor external to the game though?
Pretty much any multiplayer game is prone to the possibility of DCing or otherwise not being able to play properly. Even in real life sports you might have your star player get sick before a favoured match, but I don't think people get upset over the luck factor in soccer.
And y'know, unless you're into some hardcore conspiracy stuff, you actually will benefit more from the random afks than you lose out (5 possibilities of an afk on their team, only 4 on yours). The lose out situations are unfortunately more more memorable though so it rarely feels that way.
Its pretty dumb, the other day i DC for 10 mins cuz my net crashed and i come back and we're winning and eventually just win.. i was a non factor all game.. Similar things have happened and then when im hard carrying i have some guy on my team who insists on getting caught nonstop mid-late game and we lose.
they are doing more now that in the past with the leaverbuster system now forcing you to wait before entering a queue it means you cant just leave move to another account and play there under leaverbuster time past, leavers are force to waste time for making other waste theirs. also now there are remakes if someone never connects to the game
Play Street Fighter then.
