Low Priority Que

Truth Hurts··1 votes·586 views

I apologize if a post was already made on this topic but didn't really feel like searching for something that could potentially be buried.

I'm sure some of you have had it happen (some maybe more than others) where, you're in the middle of a game, and either you get disconnected, or in my case, your computer decides to restart on its own in the middle of the game.

Just had that very thing come to pass on me earlier, and even though I returned to the game, WON AFTER coming back, how am I rewarded? I get placed in low priority que, despite having come back to the game.

I know in the past if you left a game and didn't return, you could get placed in the Leaver Buster system, but it seems now with the new client that despite all reasons, if you leave at any point during the game, well sorry folks, but you're gonna be in low priority que, first for five minutes for five games, and now in my case, 10 minutes for 5 games. That's almost two games worth of waiting because you got DC'd or your computer decided to screw you over in the middle of a match.

Some of you may see this as a rant or just some bronze player complaining, but I've seen it happen too often where a player gets punished for an honest, uncontrollable thing screwing them over and getting placed in this que. I hope Riot finds this post and does something to rectify the situation, I'm all about punishing players for leaving games and not coming back, I've done it myself a time or two and have no issue serving my sentence as it were, but this getting punished for coming back to a game thing has to end.

Well, leaving in general SHOULD get punished, but since you actually RETURNED, this is BS. And on top of that, you even WON the game. That's definitely something worth looking at.
