This game isn't against you, It doesn't go "Hmm let me demote this guy right now." Your MM and your gameplay were key factors. I'm sure if you didn't lose that many games in a row you MIGHT of not got demoted. However after looking through your games the demotions were justified.

So when an ally ragequits for no apparent reason, do you really want to have to wait out a pause timer before you can get out of the game? There's no way to know if/when they'll be back. What's a reasonable time to wait for somebody to return to the game? It needs to be long enough to account for a short outage and maybe a modem and computer reboot. But at a certain point, you'll have been gone long enough anyhow that coming back from so many levels and so much gold down is highly unlikely.

Well boss go back to Dota. Problem Solved.

And a cursory search about the pause feature in Dota returns a LOT of complaints about the feature just wasting their time.

I could see maybe adding it to a Ranked 5's queue (if that still existed), but in solo queue it'll create just as many problems as it solves.
