why are people timed out when theyre dodging a ranked game?

isnt the stacking lp penalty enough to keep people from doing it too much? all youre doing is remove players from the que and overall increase que time. even just the first 5 minute timeout doesnt make much of a sense.

also people should be able to store up free dodges like the rerolls on arams with enough games in a row played (also to be used in promos). i had to dodge a game just now which cost me 10 lp because the atmosphere was fucking awful.

we had 2 guys bitching at each other and one of them troll picking already because kayne was banned out from him by a teammate. i dont understand why this is even tolerated and everyone but the people trolling and bitching in champ select are punished for it.

the same guys i just dodged will get into another game right away, while i payed with a timeout and lp penalty.

you really need to improve the entire situation during the draft phase.

  • new released and reworked champions should be automatically banned out from ranked games for a week. this is really fucking long overdue. people keep banning these champions either way. they do NOT want their teammates experimenting in competitive games. its completely understandable and this shit leads to a lot of toxicity.

  • add a report function already in pre game chat to decentivise dickish behaviour. let us push a report button on these turds so these pre game chatlogs actually reach you.

  • improve the entire system around que dodging to allow people to just avoid these games.

No, they have to use double jeopardy.

all good and well, but id really like to not take the lp loss and the timeout for toxic teammates during the draft phase. this should have top priority.

right now they can freely get away with this shit while others have to take the hit for them.

two people get in an argument and decide to sabotage each other and the entire team either pays with a lost game, or someone has to take the dodge and lp penalty for them.

the fact that this is still a thing after 7 years is kindof ridiculous. how many times have people asked for riot to do something about the pre game chat situation?

im lucky that this rarely happens at the mmr im playing at. but it still happens occationally.

YES i agree on banning the new/reworked champions in ranked for a month not a week!
