I don't mind losing but why didn't we get a lose prevention idk what it is thats not letting riot implement a lose prevention for afks there must be some reason im not aware of that prevents such a feature.

Because then it could be heavily abused. Whats stopping you or anyone else from just harassing another person because you guys are losing and instead of taking the full hit, will just get hit with a Loss Prevention. Granted it does suck when this happen, but there is nothing they can do to prevent something like this. Plus it could not even be the players fault. Riot Servers arent the greatest, and things like ISP arent always reliable. So anything can happen.

Because LP points would get out of handle. If someone doesnt want to lose LP he just goes afk / leaves the game. The enemy team wins and gets LP. Everyone would get LP and nobody would lose them. The Point / Ranked System would get fucked up. If you would think 5 seconds about the scenario then you should come to that fact.

You obviously didn't read the original post. viktor NEVER connected from the very start of the game till the end. you'd know that if you actually read and processed the post.

Here's why.

You go into a match with two different accounts. A main and a smurf. Your teammates can be premades or random. When the game starts you quit with your alt. You fight it out 4v5. You win you get LP. You loose you don't loose LP. Freelo. Slow but steady. Now do you see how it can easily be exploited.

except it's not steady. Riot would most likely notice that account x and account y constantly duo with account x never connecting causing account y to gain LP your main account and smurf would be banned. And if enough people did it which most likely would happen then riot would just put in a new system to prevent such a plan.

Which is why we have the current system. They don't need witch hunts.
