Remove the surrender option from ranked?

I've been in several games where we couldve came back but my team didnt want to make the effort to come back. My last game had a team who said 'they have the lead gg' then all 4 proceeded to surrender. We didnt even have our tier 3 towers down yet and it is just frustrating cause I cannot do anything about it.

So would it be smart to take the surrender option off ranked or at least make it so all 5 have to agree to surrender?

I agree.

I had one game where i was fed and able to take on 2-3 players and at there outer inhib tower destroying it while they only taken our first outer towers. As i was taking the tower my team forfeits and said it is a lost game because they lost there lanes......

What gives you, a single person, the right to decide that four other players HAVE to stay in the game and play with you or be punished? That is what is wrong with the voting system right now, it shouldn't even require four, it should only require 3. That way a duo queue can't hold the rest of the people hostage. Its where some of the most toxic behavior happens. Or, they could make it so if a surrender vote fails, you are free to leave with no leaver penalty and your team gets a bot to replace you. It probably has a better attitude than the leaver anyway.

Just because its possible to win doesn't mean you will. In fact, if you've got people throwing up surrender votes, they are already in the mindset for losing. The game is pretty much over. It is only rarely going to come back around. Some of us only have limited time to play and I for one would rather get into a new game with a new team ready to win, than sit in a game with people who just aren't in it.
