Long Matches Are NOT Fun

Please for the love of all that is holy, do not drag out a match for over 45 minutes. Good lord, I hate it when matches overextend to points of utter ridiculousness. It's downright miserable to be forced to play with a team you hate for far longer than one should have to. When someone asks for a forfeit, and it's gone on for over 45 minutes, please listen. Just take a breather and accept that the match is lost instead of hoping in vain that there is a way to come back. People have lives outside of League. Don't let matches go on forever.

Alternatively, why don't you take a breather, and realize that the longer the game goes on, the less meaningful whatever lead the other team has becomes? at 45 minutes, both sides will probably be at full build and level 18, leveling the playing field. One throw at that point is all it could take for you to win.

If your team doesn't want to surrender, keep playing until the end. If you've tried to surrender 3 times and they've said no every time, just stop starting a surrender vote.

You must have been one of those whiny players I had last game that afked in base because the surrender vote didn't go your way and joined back in for the final push to win after leaving your team to 4v5 for 10 minutes. Piece of advice.
You signed up for a game. Play it through. Stop being a sniveling wretch. Grow a pair

The same applies to short matches, via ridiculous snowballing that its basically over in less then 20 minutes, reason im glad they are pushing the FF point to 15 minutes also on top of upping the ban list to 10. Sadly some matches that are forced to continue can magically end up with miraculous turnabouts but its only a rarity that occurs when the teams are atleast evenly match to some degree, most forced to be extended matches are just fruitless efforts that most people who deny the match to end, are just or may as well be people who continue to look away from obvious gaps due to unfair champions & itemization exploits who snowball early game, mid game and late game with no stop in sight.

PSA to all the bronzetards posting in this thread: longer matches are more difficult to close, you might want to work on that, also it gets tiring and it raises the chance of making mistakes and losing the game, unless you want to troll just to post of facebook "WAAH, I DESERVE CHALLENJOUR WHY MY TEAM WON'T CARRY ME" i suggest to start looking in the mirror and realize that you might be the only thing that keep yourself and people down.

Long matches are what I live for in League. There's nothing fun than clutching a comeback win at 55 minutes, ESPECIALLY when there were whiners like you on my team who were screaming "FF".

Not to be a dick if you like short matches in moba form try heroes of the storm that is all it is and i can't stand it i played it a little i got tired of the snowballing with certain team builds and the fact objectives force the game down faster. I like 30+ matches as you can still turn things around. I understand wanting to quit when top and bot lanes fed and lost all their towers but if the game is still going even if i call for the ff i will still be fighting to the end.
