TL;DR at bottom

recently ive been playing alot of games and climbed myself from bronze 2 all the way to silver 4. i was sitting at 95 LP when i got a game with an AFK, we lost the match and i lost 20 LP. My next game i got an AFK half way through game but he came back and then someone AFK'd at the end because of rage. With that i lost another 20LP. and finally to top it all off i played one more game and had someone DC which yes, cost us the game. So i played 3 games lost about 20 LP each game and not even because i played poorly just because i got unlucky with DC and AFK so i went from 95 LP almost in promos to 35LP just like that. My solution is to cut the LP loss in half for when you get an AFK. its not fair to those who continue to play, its a waste of time and ill still lose the same amount of LP with 5 players.

TL;DR - been playing a lot of games and lost 3 games in a row because of AFK/DC'ers. Lost 20 LP each game. why not make the LP lost half for when you have an AFK?

Riot please this game is difficult enough to climb give us a little bit of breathing room

Because teams would have someone leave when they are losing so as to negate the full LP loss for the rest of the team. This in turn would boost people even more to ranks they don't belong in.

Let me know if you think this is a good idea or not
