I feel like riot should put something in the game that, if someone feeds on purpose you should not lose lp or if there is a dc or afk i really think this idea should be considered. I can't get out of bronze just because some guy decides to AFK in ranked i can't climb like this
ComeOnAndSlamJam1 votesJust keep playing. The enemy team will have just as many AFKs/feeders/retards as you will.
Try not to take it too seriously. I view bronze as being yolo queue on nobody cares mode.
Calibansfury1 votesIt's not about the volume of retards/feeders/afks, it's when they emerge. Losing a promo game due to an afk is an awful feeling, and there's a good chance that one of your next two games will have an afk/feeder/troll/retard in it. The retard-gravity of bronze is difficult to break free from.
ComeOnAndSlamJam1 votesI failed out of bronze 2 twice because of retards/feeders/AFKs. Now I'm in my promos to go to silver 5.
Just keep playing. You can escape bronze just on sheer volume of games. If you're consistently making making an S and having games with three or fewer deaths you'll make it out.
Calibansfury1 votesI made a post earlier today about this. Simple solution riot could put in.
If someone AFK's for more than 5 minutes, the loss is prevented for everyone other than the AFKer, who suffers an LP loss even if the 4 man team can pull off a win.
If someone AFK's while duo queued, they both suffer the LP loss. This prevents manipulation by teams of people who would have someone go AFK in order for the rest of them to dodge a lost game. Otherwise four man teams could have one guy jump on the grenade to save the other three from LP losses. If the rest of them stay and pull off a 4v5 win, they still dont get any LP, but they don't lose any.
Simple solution, why Riot doesn't do it (it's not that revolutionary of an idea), is beyond me.
