Something has to be done about the impossible 4v5 / 3v5 situation in bronze.

Just had a game where our Jungle Vi was afk from the begininng and our adc afked at the 20 minute mark. We demolished the enemy team early game and were ahead at the end of the game 40 to 22.

I think we should be refunded our LP if someone has been afk for a majority of the match. It is literally 100% impossible to win a 3v5 and about 75% impossible to win a 4v5. It's retarded that there's afks at least once every 3 games in bronze and we're still expected to just carry our way out.

This is why you're bronze. You still think kills win matches. This is not team deathmatch.

Obviously kills don't win matches. Objectives win matches. We had 2 drags to their 1 drag, but we were severely down in towers due to 2 afks.

You need to be able to do some shotcalling in that situation, using minion softpushing while rotating your 3 members through the map to get some pressure on towers and other objectives.

Okay, first off you aren't expected to "carry your way out," because as long as you don't go afk yourself, the AFKs are going to be on the enemy team more often than they will be on yours. Sometimes you will have streaks of AFKs on your own team, and sometimes you will get several wins in a row because of enemy AFKs. It's just the way chance works.

Bottom line is that AFKs do not make it harder to gain rank--if you yourself are someone who never AFKs, they make it easier.
