Losing a 5v4 is even shittier.

I don't think they can not let people lose LP for 4v5s if you think about it people would abuse that system to keep other people a certain rank I think it used to be like that.

Plus there would be a whole new pressure to quit the game in the middle making more 4v5s and ruining more games. I think they tested something like this for a while and that's why they have the current remake system instead of something else though it is a bit of an issue.

-18 lp? dang I lose 23 lp now lol. Yeah, it sucks, but just losing in general sucks too. The problem with changing how the lp is lost/gained due to a player leaving the game is it is abusable.

I have this pattern of getting promoted and then immediately losing 8 games in a row, happens almost everytime it seems.

I still think they just need to take away the penalty but keep it for anybody partied with the AFK/drop. At least then the solo players won't be punished for something out of their control, but will remove any abuse as well. As for the idea of it giving people extra LP on the other side, it doesn't really matter. If it bumps them up to where they should be then they deserve it anyway. If it bumps them up too high then their lack of skill will correct it before they are far beyond their skill level.

I've had a game where someones like brb I think? Then blew flash to prevent remake... and didn't come back.

20 minutes of waisted time and -18 Lp later... actually went and played another game for the night. Was so much less stressful then the RNG of at any time matchmaking can fuck you over and theres nothing you can do about it other then grind out more games.

Most games right now feel like a 4v5 though, because someone always gets his ass clapped so utterly hard, they feel completely useless.

I feel your pain but I would like to point out that there is a system in place called "leaverbuster". It puts people who leave or dc in a low priority queue so that they'll show up less In your games*[slayer-pantheon-thumbs]*

Being 4v5 is not that bad If It happens not in late game but mid or early -1 person more xp and creep score for others you will have higher level and etc. So It’s not that bad but 4v5 where the leaving person left because he was 0/7 and he didn’t wanted do play anymore is the worst...

You are doomed to lose if someone leaves the game after just a few minutes. Jungle has to fill in, isn't prepared for laning, gets less exp etc.. and has no pressure on other lanes.
