How does a 4v5 not permit a loss prevented?

I totally understand that a duo partner could just leave and you wouldn't lose lp, but they would, and they'd also probably get suspensions. Why would someone even be willing to do that? You should REALLY be awardess loss prevention for afk's. a 4v5 is a complete disadvantage and if your matchmaking system pairs up two about even teams, it becomes VERY uneven when a player from one of those teams leaves.

I just played a game where our top laner dc'd 4 or 5 times for like 3 mins each, was barely there half the game. He ended up dc'ing at a dragon fight twice and in a different team fight another time.

Its completely ridiculous that players have to lose LP just because other players can handle their temper or they play when they have awful internet. Every single game man.

Well it sounds like a good idea but in reality people will abuse it, people are losing and 1 guy feeds the whole team is going to pester him to leave so they can all keep there LP it will happen.

i don't think anyone would actually leave to protect their pestering teammates. I wouldn't

You would be surprised, people raging at this 1 guy, guy decided he cba to play with toxic players so he afk's or just rage quit it happens, there would actually be an incentive for people to actually flame the feeder to leave.

This would actually only work if the game instantly started with 4v5 only that would work

Well... are you willing to be WIN prevented when someone in the opposite team ragequit ? Because logically you can't ask to reduce the LP deduction somewhere without also suggesting where we should take those LP from. If the mean player, in the right division still win more LP then he lose, every one will be diamond sooner or later...

Theres no such thing as win prevented... they still get the win.. And LP doesn't have some limited number... its a singular representation of where YOU are on the ladder. When someone gains it it doesn't mean someone loses it... Im not even gonna talk about your last remark smh dumbest comment I've ever attempted to reply to.

Hmm... Sorry what is dumb about what I said ? If riot start to give more lp then it takes, player will climb at alarming rate by default. It's just the base logic of a ranking system; It's meant to be PVP.

You can't just give more LP to players like this and think it will work right away. If you consider that "dumb" our conversation is over I guess.

If you allow players to get lost prevented from dc's then some players would develop a tactic where they try to get others to dc if it seems like a lost game.
