Way too many surrenders

Enough said. Too many times my team is losing and just hits surrender at 20. It's lame. A good game is like a seesaw. I think it's better to play it out and I'm sick of games ending in surrender. Besides, you can't learn anything from surrendering.

i had a match today where the graph showed the gold advantage changing 9 times throughout the game. some games really are like a seesaw. as you can see, both teams were pretty evenly matched, the highest gold advantage was 4k, meaning on average each player on my team had 800 more. but in the case of most games, even if you're 10k behind, you should always hold out until the nexus is actually destroyed, while some games are unwinnable, the vast majority you do have a chance.

Agreed. People need to learn that surrendering early is not good. I only surrneder in <.01% of my games, and only when we are getting destroyed and I'm not having a fun time at all

I only surrender if it's like, 40-50 minutes into the game and we can't do absolutely anything, and no one is fed, and we have 3 inhibs down and we just got aced.

I'm the opposite. I'm tired of games where we're like 10k gold behind, and their adc can kill you in 5-6 hits without a crit before 20mins. When they're 4-6 towers, 2 dragons and 10 kills ahead, I prefer to just end the game there. I know it's possible to come back, and sometimes I don't mind trying, but allied chat usually gets pretty rough to sit through at this point.

Surrendering teaches you when to give up.

I'm sick of the "never give up dont play ranked if u surrender" attitude.

If the enemy team is up 15 kills, 6 towers, and 2 dragons while you are struggling to take a single T1 tower, just surrender.

Stop wasting people's time.
