My last couple of matches were bad, ended up losing them. Finally I'm in a game where I'm doing well and even carrying, but then my wire comes loose on my computer and shuts off. I quickly turn everything back on and rush back in, I get in and continue to help carry the game. Taking towers, getting kills, saving teammates. Then the game ends and I lose 17 fucking LP, are you kidding? I've been on and off this game for a while, but I think this finally turned me off from ever really wanting to try anymore.

Liking this game takes too much effort. It's flashy and fun at first but when you actually start taking the game seriously there's just too many flaws that you know will never be fixed. I'd highly recommend you guys don't reconnect to your games and just wait it out for a few minutes in hopes your team forfeits just so you can get into a new game faster.

Honestly, if you reconnect to a match and you're under "Leaver Buster" even though you have 100% intention to help your team win, don't.

Just type;

"I'd love to help you win this match, but Riot has chosen to punish me if I stay". "I apologize the system is designed to make you lose LP" "I apologize they'd rather also punish you then let me help you win".

Then dance around the fountain. This toxic environment was 100% avoidable but they chose to set up a situation where there are 0 reasons to be a sportsmanlike player.

Sadly yah that part is just sad about game no matter what you done if you did disconnect for more than 10min and then you connect back and carried it legit lose for you no matter what. And if you asked support for help, they would say they wish you do the right thing and reconnect but they saying in other words it up to you if you want to help or not, you will lose either way.

I only just recently was able to get a desktop. My laptop that I played on for years was having some hard drive failure issues. This happened to me a few times; computer shut off and I had to reconnect. Even if we won I lost lul

It happens when you trigger the AFK warning.

I played some ARAM. Waited in bush for level 6. After that, ended up 1v5 winning the game and getting 2 pentas. Then Riot nopes me. Didn't even actually leave the game :*(.
