Thoughts about Queue and LP penalty for dodging at champion select
With the overwhelmingly danger of being called a whiner, salty player, troll or what ever else that might come in mind, I write this anyway in the hope that someone can explain to me in an understanding way why it is fair to be penalized so heavy for dodging a game in champion select.
This might only be a Bronze problem I don't know because I have never played anything else than bronze, but I really can't seems to get my mind around why it is fair that I lose LP and get 20 minute queue ban and worse if it happens many times.
Take for instance this real example.
I get in to a ranked game and the first thing written in the chat is the midlaner, who wanna play top, asking to be top. Nothing wrong with that, it is a fair question. He is then asked what champion he wanna play top in which he reply, Teemo. He is then denied the toplane because everyone, besides a selected few brain dead, hates Teemo. Then starts a flamewar like no other and the pregame chat is as long as the IKEA catalog written in lettersize 8 even before bans are done.
It then happens that our last ban person had enough of the shit and he bans Teemo as the Teemodude go on yabbing about then he just play Teemo mid and he will not help in any other lane and he will not do any teamfighting. With the result that we now have 2 IKEA catalogs in chat.
He then go "Fuck you guys, I am trolling this game" and pick Soraka mid.
At this point my "team" is in full conflict and I have a hard time figuring out how on earth the game will be even playable. Then our Jungler go "okay troll game" and he pick Sona Jungle.
I now have 1 of 2 choices. 1. I play the game and spend 20 minutes in hell and report the team after the game which is, for the most part, not yielding any results. On top of that I lose X LP for a lost game that should not have been started in the first place. 2. I dodge the game and I will be the only one loosing LP and I get banned from joining a new queue for 20 minutes, so again 20 minutes wasted.
So now, dear reader, can you tell me what to do and why it is fair to be double penalized for dodging.
