Your matchmaking makes me dodge 20% of my ranked games.

I have to dodge just remain a 50% player.

EDIT: At this rate, this is going to be a real reality.

At least you only penalize us a half an hour at a time. At some point I'm expecting the fouled up picks and non-attention paying summoners in champ select to lighten up. But still, it is happening because of mashing the mmrs together so tightly.

EDIT: That is, unless you are actually expecting me to stay and lose to elements outside of my control.

Nothing is making you dodge, besides you.

So i roll top Garen as 2nd pick. And last pick says he's going darius top.

We don't have a single ranged champion, let alone an adc.

The rest of picks 1-through-4 are supposed to just deal with the lossed MMR?

I suppose you are right, technically speaking. But who in their right mind is going to choose to stay?

(I took the bullet for the team)

The reason I bring up this technicality is because you sound like you're blaming Riot for the actions of players. Riot tried very harsh punishments for dodging in the past, and there's a reason they reverted back to a small punishment.

They understand there's a difference between someone dodging because they did not get what they want, and someone who has to go, or who dodges because of a legitimate troll. The problem is an automated system cannot make that distinction, and they are hardly capable of having trustworthy people handle every case.

The current system is literally the best they could do. They will always say that you should put up with it and not dodge, but that is because supporting any kind of dodging would be a horrible move, however they are keeping punishments small so that dodges that must happen can happen. Contrary to what some think they actually know what is going on in their game.

Yeah, you're right. I'll deal with it. I don't mind 30 min.

Raises hand

I'd rather play the game that I enjoy playing than sit and stare at a timer. Even if we get stomped, 20

When i see 3 other people go "WTF Man. We need adc" And he still locks in Darius...

I'm not going to stick around for 20 min of flaming. That is not enjoyable to me, personally

not only do i also not wanna stare and hear 20 minutes of full fledge flaming and screaming at everyone but that 30 minute timer isnt so bad when u get up to go do something in that time frame such as eat or watch a tv show..just an opinion
