I'm sick of the way this game punishes people.

Riot the way you punish players is so ridiculous. I just afkd from a game because what was going on was just wrong and I know I'm going to get in trouble for it yet it was another player who literally pushed me so far that I had no choice but to leave the game. Muting him wasn't enough. Here is what happened. I'm playing ADC as Jinx, my support is a Braum. Keep in mind I just bought Jinx today and I was trying to learn her. The enemy bot lane was a tristana ADC and a Brand support. The lane started out fine I was just farming not trying to start a fight. Braum Q's the brand and spam pings for me to hit him, there was a giant wave of minnions in my way and a tristana so i pinged for him to back off. There was no need for us to fight as long as I farm well we should be fine late game. He continued to keep going ham and I told him that he should stop I don't want to fight we don't need to risk it. He then says "This jinx doesn't know how to adc" After he says that he gets killed and says :Fuck this I'm roaming" He then leaves me alone bot lane to roam around the map helping the rest of the team. Granted I got mad and said some rude shit but like wtf. I did nothing wrong to start with and he freaked out. I died two more times and then he started talking more shit. What was I supposed to do? I left the game I'm not going to put myself inthat situation. Now I know I'm going to get in trouble when really this Braum should be reported for leaving the adc after the adc did nothing but not want to do what he did.

there's no rule that the support has to stay bot lane

you should have communicated with him at the start of the game that you wanted a passive lane

otherwise there's really no reason why, as Jinx, you shouldn't try to proc his passive when he landed a Q on someone. It's somewhat disrespectful to him for you to just leave him hanging without an explanation that you would be going off-meta regarding a standard Jinx/Braum lane.

Mute him and move on. Adc in general is a frustrating role. Not only can anyone 1 shot you at any point, but you're extremely team-dependent during the game. Let's be real here, there's no reason to afk. I play games where I go like 0-11, it happens, and even though he might be upset, he tried his best to win the game, so you should respect that and play it out to your best ability. When you click that "Play" button, you're basically signing the next 20+ minutes of your time to committing to winning that game.

What do you mean you're going to get in trouble for it, the system let's leave unranked games without any repercussions, it's when you do it a lot or on a consistent basis that you get punished.
