League only punishes its players (Riots a joke)

I always recommend friends play other games and not to even try this game as it's unreliable and based more on luck than skill. Sure skill/mechanics help with consistency of gameplay but one player cant carry the way one person can lose for your team and it's unfortunate. Not to mention the AFK, dc, MMR system. When the season was fresh placed G1 got to promo and lost my promo game due to my internet disconnecting so I reconnected and still won due to the gap but even though I got the W for placements it was an L. I emailed Riot and they said

"I understand how you're feeling, but unfortunately, the reason you lost an LP was due to you were AFK during the game. As you have said, your internet cut out and the system detected that you were AFK. Even if the game won, your game still considered a loss.

I am sorry I cannot return your LP as it could damage the system ;~;

If you have other concerns, feel free to reach out! I'm always here for you!

I still have my acct I just duo with ranked in plat almost diamond but on my main I just learn new champs in ranked since the matchmaking is so terrible its a gamble regardless if I'm one tricking or not so I see no point.

how about this system: he's 5 minutes afk so he is afk whole game The player that's afk based on system: level 16 system: yep he is afk the player: comes back after those 5 minutes and is active for like 20+ minutes system: aaaaaah but he was 5 mins afk so he was afk the whole game logic: but he reconnected and was there for another 20 minutes system: no he wasn't he was afk whole match logic: facepalms

Would be really strange if they started punishing other games' players

Nothing strange here. You were afk, you were punished for that. The fact that you won overall is not your achievement, but your other 4 teammates

the matchmaking is so terrible its a gamble on my main I just learn new champs in ranked

People like you are the reason MM works the way it does

The game would be better if it was a little more friendly to players who get held captive by trolls.
