You shouldn't lose LP on first dodge nor should it escalate so much in 1 day

There are games when the other team picks cheese champs and the comp heavily outweighs my team's or when i ask for a certain champ to be banned they end up banning someone that is easily out-playable and isn't so much as game changing as the champ which is soon picked...thereby making me want to dodge so i don't have to deal with that champion.

I mean why should i have to suffer when someone I OP.GG/multi is going on a tilting streak or when someone decides to troll? i should be allowed to dodge with no negative effects other than timer

The loss of LP isn't an issue because your MMR stays the same.

Thanks for the obvious but either way that 3 lp could have saved you from having to play a bonus game at 99

Which also doesn't really matter in the long run, since even if you only get 1 lp for winning that match at 99LP, you get the full MMR gains.

Dodging properly saves you more LP in the long run.

Less dodge penalties mean more dodging which means with 10 people potentially dodging in any given champ select that time to get into game tends to skyrocket.

The vast majority of champions are 'easily outplayable' if you know how to deal with them appropriately, and on the rare occasion when something is super OP without outplay potential then it should probably be your own ban. Keep in mind different people have different amounts of experience playing against various things, so what is crazy OP no counterplay for you might be free win for another player, and vice versa, which is part of why everyone gets their own ban.
