Riot NEEDS to compensate for unfair matches!

Hi everyone, I have experienced many excruciatingly painful games with DCs and people who intentionally feed, and I know that Riot is trying to punish these players, but there is one GIANT issue that riot is struggling to understand.

We as dedicated LOL players care that the Leaverbuster improves our community, But we NEVER get re-payed for the damage that DCs, AFKs or Feeders do to our LP. We spend our free time enjoying league and frankly, games with DCs and Intentional Feeders are NOT enjoyable, we NEED compensation. Now I know some higher ELO players will come and say i'm being greedy but c'mon. We lower Bronze-Gold players have a very hard time scaling when 1/4 matches has a DC. Whether the DC gets punished or not isn't our main concern. Our main concern is how the hell are we gonna get that LP back, not to mention the Champion Points and IP we loose.

I know I don't speak for myself when I say this; Riot Needs to make a system where victims of a DC get repayment for their loss of time, self-esteem and most importantly LP

> P.S this is my first thread so pls help me get it noticed

Firstly, it happens to everyone. In most cases for each DC/afk you get, there would eventually be one on the other team to balance it out.

Secondly, what do you propose rito does about it? The exact reason they haven't taken action is because literally any action you will be able to think of can be abused by players.

What annoys me the most is when someone says they have to leave, but instead of leaving they just beg the whole time for the team to surrender so they don't get the leaver penalty.

I, too with the -Lower community- Bronze ~ Gold- I had very hard times because of what you just said. Been playing for about 6 seasons now. But I got to admit the community improved by so much. in season 6. I rarely now get the dc and afkers problem. now it is only newbies and very young people playing. But games lost because of those you mentioned should be forgiven. We have leave buster now , why don't we have Victims Buster to be forgiven! Thank you for raising the issue.

I don't see why it would be so difficult for Riot to not count matches where a player does not show up at all. If a player does this more than once a month when ban them from ranked for 2 months. That would solve the problem real quick.

no they should just balance champs and game would be 100% better most games are lost/won by unfair champs not by dcs or trolls
