Why isn't 15+ deaths immediately removed from ranked play?

I feel like no matter your ELO you are facing people of your own skill level. But when you are just walking into lane and dying again and again to the point where you die 15+ times, i feel like you just know nothing about the game in general and shouldn't be allowed to play ranked. Not only that, they can just say they had a "bad game" and get no punishment for doing so damn poorly. The rest of the team, does seriously well despite the 6k gold handed to the enemy team for free. So my question is this, where do we draw the line on how bad you can do before you just get instantly removed from ranked play. It isn't fair to the rest of the team to lose LP and 40 minutes of their time just because of one person who can't use their brain. It just ruins players game experience, and its the one thing that just isnt punished for some reason??

Also how is this person so outmatched skill wise that they are dying 15+ times in a game?? Feel like the ranked system might be broken for matchmaking atm and needs to have a fix... Perhaps stop matching based on W/L and just go with MMR like every other ranked system in existence.

Because a 30/15 Yi is probably carrying your team. Also some champions having 15 deaths may be doing their job, while others not.

Also we all have bad games-- just saying.

Also looking at some of your matches you also do just as bad as the Yas that was in one of your games with 17 deaths. This is evidence that we all have bad games and you should let it go because you put your team in the same situation as that Yas did to you and your team mates.

"just a bad game"

But 1/9/0 and farming bot jungle at full build when the baron is open would be way more useful, amirite?

While I understand where this is coming from, there are quite a few legit exceptions such as Singed dying over and over but winning the game in the process, or some extreme cases where you have a Nunu support who never shows up bot lane and you're just getting 3-men camped by Elise who can turret dive you any day.

Also, your argument is entirely based on the assumption that people are facing those of their skill level, and I can assure you that is not what is happening in most cases. The matchmaking is so screwed up a silver V can end up facing high plat (even though they cannot queue together), and you also have to take into account the endless amount of smurfs in low elo.

Trust me, a close game comes by very rarely, and most often game is one sided with either the dominant side winning or dominant side throwing the game with long death timer late game.

Singed can go 0/15 and win game without much trouble.

So... I accidently meet a player I dont like: Let's say he's called BabeisBae => 'Hey JGL want to have some fun?'

20 Minutes in, you're at 14 Deaths because you get ganked the second you leave your base and you can decide either AFK or get banned. Yeah - let's do this, sounds fun!

How about we remove the xp cut and make runes expensive again then. Make beginners take more time to learn :)
