If after years we're finally having remake, please make it work well

Here's the major reasons it won't work perfectly

  1. It has to be VOTED to remake a game
  2. It can be only voted once

Explaination The vote system for remake is likely going to be the same as a surrender vote, which means 2 players voting "No" means a failed vote Premades of a size greater than 3 people will fuck up this vote entirely, for:

  1. My friend says he's rebooting, he's coming" -- I don't want to play an unfair game, even missing the first 2 minutes results in a huge disadvantage. This is so, so likely to happen. I can guarantee this situation to happen: someone from a premade doesn't connect; rest of premade says "wait he's coming"; you can't /remake cause you know they are voting no; you wait for a few minutes, either first blood goes out or the guy comes back few minutes into the game already and you suddenly have to play an unfair game like this system never exists.
  2. But why wouldn't premades agree to remake if they know the game won't be fair anyways? Well, "We will all be punished anyways, why would I let others go for free" -- Just like the present state, "We will probably win a 4v5, we lose the same LP anyways, we don't care about your time"

I'm not saying all premades will have the mentality in 2, but if the system suggests a likelihood of 2 happening, I won't feel it's helping protect competitive integrity.

And it's easy to improve

  1. Make it automatic remake if someone is DC at 2:00 or on the spawn of first wave or whatever, an afk player beyond 2:00 just puts the game on an uneven ground and if the system is to protect competitive integrity, it should be designed to do that to the very best.
  2. And/or make it like this -- DC=loss, Premade with DC=dodge, Rest=loss prevented -- so that it's easier for the entire premade to accept the punishment.

Anyways, please consider this system thoroughly before you release it, it will be a lifesaver for this game

I don't think anyone is going to view a forced remake as an improvement.
