So, my account, which had a 70% win rate in ranked games prior to the 2 games that I will detail below, was permanently banned today for an isolated incident of toxticity that I feel was avoidable with the aformentioned suggestion for format correction. I was in my ranked promotional series to get to silver this morning, and started out with 2 reasonable games that I won handedly. Then, I was placed in a game where my jungler was dominated and ended up having 0 kills and 8 deaths by 20 minutes. I held my tongue and we lost the game quickly. Then, in the champion select for the next game of my series, my teammates declared as Kindred jg, Yasuo mid, Kalista bot and Tryndamere top. There is not a support to fix that team composition, which lacks for crowd control, tankiness, and ability power. I begged them to change their picks but they refused. Turns out, it was also a first time Tryndamere player. I locked in Zyra and expressed my frustrations too much throughout the duration of the game, which was lost in under 20 minutes, and understand why I was banned. I do believe, though, that my negativity was not misplaced, and that the situation was avoidable given the suggested format correction. I believe this change would benefit all competitively minded players who choose to partake in ranked games. I would like my account, LilQT13, back, given the currently unavoidable and deeply frustrating nature of my predicament. In failure of that, this change should be made nonetheless to better the ranking system going forward.

The reason there are dodge penalties is so players can actually get into games. If there were no dodge penalties, people would dodge everytime they didn't like their team comp or they didn't like the champions on the enemy team. This would make it so you would most likely have to go through 30 minutes just to get into a game, because people keep dodging if they don't like the team comps, so dodge penalty is there to prevent people from dodging too much.

Would love to discuss the pros and cons of this with anyone who is interested, I really want to get a lot of support for this concept because I believe it would make average game quality markedly better.
