INNOVATIVE IDEA FOR AFK'S AND LEAVERS

I have a innovative idea for afk's and leavers.

I would love an option in the solo ranked & normal Q's for players to be able to fill in for afk's and leavers. It would relieve the players left to the dogs in a 4v5 or even worse 3v5, it would help to protect gamers from being surrendered on in a ranked game, and I think it could be a very convenient option for players with limited time but still want to play and help out a team in need. It could be like a reinforcements or mercenary option.

Please give this idea some thought I would love join a game like this and have players come help me in return. Thank you for reading and thank you for your time. AfterBurners

I'd be very down. Maybe it could just be a list of champs showing what was available to be filled in so it wasn't random. And incetivize people to do it. Say max -5lp on loss and get like.. most or all of the lp on win.

I'd love to KNOW what happened to the AFK-er.

It feels so frustrating to lose 8/10 games; 1 because you get put up against a stacked team of experienced players who are leveling the clan accounts with names including their clan tag. 2 because of legitimate good opponents. 3 because players on your team are AFK. 2 because players on your team feed, not excluding yourself.

...

The worst part is when a player AFK-s after a failed Surrender vote -- and you actually break into the opponent base and take down one of the final towers... only to lose because that one player alive is AFK, letting basic enemy minions survive under your last turret so that their only living melee character can safely knock the last tower down.

That has happened TWICE the last 20 games or so I've played: Comebacks prevented because players go AFK because of a failed surrender.
