So matches are usually 25 minutes now and the surrender vote's still at 20 minutes

It's fine, really! Nothing says "I feel like an adult" more than feeling completely helpless in a video game when I'm shackled to an intentional feeding Nunu and an AFK

ff vote should be 15mins. specially in high elo once fb tower goes down and the game has like a 5kills difference it's over. with the only beam of light beeing a baron steal but people are not retarded enough to go for a 50-50 baron when they can preassure towers and choke the enemy.

They destroyed the game, because LCS is super boring and nothing happens for 30-45 minutes. Now nothing will happen for 20-25 minutes. Great game design, RIOT. I think that they will regret this fiasco in the future, but there is still no real competition that can dethrone LoL.

The bot tower is the new Nexus dude.

Even worse, it still takes 4 votes out of 5 to surrender, it should only be 3 out of 5 (majority rule, it only makes sense).

I don't think Moobeat would be happy about changing the surrender vote to 15min. Surrender@15 doesn't have that ring to it.

Agreed, the ff vote should be at 15 mins, but most people who int don't want to surrender so I don't know how much it would help.

Doesn't matter most players are too stupid to vote to surrender.

I dont mind losing a game. But i cannot fucking stand being in a game where youre 10+ kills behind, dont have any towers down, and 2 people on your team decided to hold everyone else hostage for 10+ minutes as you just sit in your base.

Surrender vote needs to go to 15 minutes and be a 3 vote imo.

Games are usually 25 minutes

Your match history suggests otherwise.

Liar.

Even if you do this, the morons at low elo will still, no matter what, vote no and continue to say "we can still win." Nothing like being 20 minutes in and the score is 7-20, they have 4 turrets and 2 drags, while you have nothing, and they still vote no. And then tell everyone to report you for giving up/quitting.

You say this as if making the vote earlier would help. The rest of your team is just going to say no until the enemy is right on your nexus.

Ive seen games make insane comebacks so i have to disagree on this one. Some comps are early game but shit late game. Say Le Blanc, Zed, Ekko jg, and adc and support vs. Malphite, Ahri, Vi jg. Even if they lose early, they can win late game.

Why are you lying ? For most players average game duration is still 30 minuts.

This would be fine for normal's.... I would not recommend changing the surrender time in ranked. This just opens the door to more trolls getting their way. The closer they get to your base the easier it is to catch back up in farm. Play safe, farm, and focus the fed champ that is crushing you.... done.

No one votes to surrender anyway.

This is sadly true. Games are never long enough, and when you are in a long game, it's because your team refuses to FF and you lose 55 minutes in. But when it's your turn to win? Over in 20

Or, an easier solution.. remove first tower gold really dumb mechanic, and it greatly punishes those that can't shove lane. It doesn't keep laners from roaming, especially assassins. Most assassins have good pushing power

10 minutes should be the right one.

Epicanian1/20/2017, 3:35:54 AM1 votes

most of my games go on for 30-35 min, but it's almost always decided at 15 min and the rest is just the losing team delaying the inevitable
