+3 LP for a remake?

At the moment, you can get -3lp for dodging a que, I can assume this can be taken as a penalty for wasting others time.

Holding up this logic, your time is wasted in a remake, shouldn't the players who didn't afk get +3lp?

I believe this is a fair way of giving a player some compensation for something that wasn't their fault. Obviously the penalties for the Afker and anyone in their lobby remain in place to avoid exploitation.

In a remake, there is a penalty too. The DCer gets a loss.

There isn't and shouldn't be a bonus for doing nothing.

I queue with someone on 97 LP, quit on start. He remakes and gets 3 LP getting him to promo. Ye, cant be abused.

I don't know if this is the right solution, but it does suck that remakes waste so much time. I've had an hour to play before and had to quit after a remake because it took so much time and I didn't want to risk being in a game and having to leave. Something to show for all that time would be nice.

mechanic that prevents you from losing an unfair game should give you the benefit of wining one

dumb thread your reward for your time is not losing LP because you had an afk

Well, before the remake the team of 5 would have gotten ~20lp. Now, they don't get anything and it wasn't really their fault. I agree that the team who /remakes shouldn't be punished because it is unfair. But imo this idea should be +3lp to the enemy team. The players on the /remake team save their lp, and the others on the enemy team still get some.

This sounds like a decent idea to compensate some for the time wasted in queue and loading screen in a remake, but only if Riot makes SoloQ a TRUE SoloQ. (Where it's you + 4 randoms vs 5 randoms so it can't be abused by duos/2 accounts on different computers)

Yeah, this is a good idea. I've actually afk'd at the start of a game because someone on my team said "their kat is smurfing with 90% win rate"

I could give a damn less about my LP because I was trying to help my friend rank up.

"Holding up to this logic"... but you usually diverted from the logic. If someone wastes a bit of your time bu dodging in champ select they lose 3lp. If someone wastes even more of your time by forcing a remake, "holding up to this logic", they should lose even more lp... which they do. It's a loss for them.

I also hate wasting my time on remakes, but rewarding us rp for losing time is just silly. Following your logic here, they should also give us lp when someone dodges. Just a bad idea to reward lp for anything other than winning.

This would be abused to no end.

The bonus should be IP

Because that would make sense, and Riot is filled with college dropouts.

+1 LP maybe ... maybe

Player w: How'd you make challenger with only 10 wins on your account? Player c: People kept not connecting and I'd get to promos for each rank via remakes - you know what they say... "+3lp = op".

The rate it takes to actually get into a game, after waiting for queues, then several dodges and finally getting through champ selection, just to get a remake is frustrating as hell.. Even in normals.

I can't stand it.

Just a random thought, but maybe if a person dodges that person loses 4lp and each LP goes to those who didn't dodge. Why? Because, why not?!?!? [zombie-brand-mindblown]
