Penalizing Team Builder Leavers

There has to be some way to penalize people who enter a team builder lobby and just leave if it's not full. I've sat in lobby for a good period of time all the while needing only two spots to fill and having someone join and leave right away.

Kind of kills the point of Team Builder if you try that.

Team builder is meant for you to choose what and who you play with. If you start penalizing people for leaving the room then you might as well do away with team builder.

riot implements penalties for leaving team builder

Next day:

I create a lobby with ADC Bard and laugh as people are penalized for leaving my doomed team in team builder.

Team builder lets you join a team comp that you want with a champion that you want. You get to pick and choose, and it's glorious. It really only needs two improvements:

  1. Estimated wait times for each role prior to champion select.
  2. IP boosts for anyone who selects an unpopular role. (for example: 50 bonus IP for support if average time waiting for support is >10m)
