  • should afk in ranked lose the team L.P. or should the afk lose points and the team get loss prevention? i think that people who rage quit or flame should lose L.P. for it. The lower tiers have a lot of toxic players its a given this would insure that the friendlier and positive players climb where the toxic players can see their problem and work in reforming but the higher tiers do not need toxic or flaming teammates although most laugh it off. it may clean up gold to challenger games quite a bit from bronze to low gold it would help the tiers learn to laugh it off, as for the afk if the team loses because of an afk as a team you shouldn't be punished for it but the person who afk's should be. I understand that this could create some situations where you drop connection for a second and your team surrenders and with that they should hold for at least 1 to 5 min, before surrendering, this type of punishment could help people trying to climb as well as make league a little bit more fun to play and less stressful. So regardless of the rank or predicament you should always be helpful and encourage your team in a non hateful manner now addressing the afk aspect of ranked the team shouldn't be punished for one persons inability to stay in the game until its over with. Its ranked if you lose your lane stick with your team and help how ever you can, if its a problem with vision ward if its focus, peel. It shouldn't matter if your fed or not this is a team game. suck up your pride and play it out [slayer-pantheon-thumbs] so lets get out their and try to help our team win

if the AFK made only one person lose IP (himself) then it would be abused far too easily so no its a terrible idea.

i agree it feels unfair to lose IP because of this but you need to accept this is part of league and all other competitive games and get on with it I'm afraid.

In theory it sounds like a good idea, but in practice, if I was playing with friends and we were losing, what's to keep my buddy from afking to save me IP? I wish people were virtuous enough not to abuse the system you have outlined....but such is not the case. They gave us remakes. I think we should be grateful for such and strive to be better ourselves.... roll with the punches as they say. gl hf m8!

Not really, as AFKing can sometimes be justified.
