What do you do when your enemy laner is afk for 5 mins and then reconnects?

Like, he had some internet trouble and his team didn't remake for some reason. Do you let him farm? Or do you just kill him again and again? Also, do you report them at the end?

Depends on the game and how you're feeling.

Ranked? Sorry bud, pick someplace I'm not if you don't want me taking advantage of you being under leveled. (I might even suggest they duo jungle for a bit to catch up on experience faster).

Normals? I'll usually let them farm for a little bit to catch up so that all involved can have a more interesting match in 3 or 4 more minutes.

There are a surprising amount of idiots that will take the kindness of the second scenario, then start attacking me before they're caught up. I always take that as a signal "OK, you think you're good now"

I tend to leave the person alone since I know they aren't a threat to me. The game is designed to let people catch up to an average level if they've been disconnected for awhile. If their jungler comes to gank me when I am not harming them, gloves off.

Otherwise, I personally see no reason not to be sportsmanlike. You already have a major advantage in them permanently being down farm the rest of the game. You could at least be a decent human being and let them have a fair match. Afterall, you'd be hoping for the same treatment if you disconnected.

Depends if you want to be bm or not, If its someone that you shouldnt let free farm, like a Nasus , you just dont want to let him do what ever he wants, so it depends on your morals

Kill him repeatedly. No reason not to. I'm not here to compensate for his shitty wifi toaster.

As much as being sportsmanlike and letting him catch up is the good thing to do I would just farm him. I don't see a scenario where an enemy team wouldn't do the same to me and ranked can be so stressful that any advantageous situation is one I want to jump on.
