One Solution to AFKs.

Rensenpai··3 votes·330 views

I recently lost two ranked matches because of one AFK. I'm pretty sure all of us experienced this. It feels bad but it's worse when you're in a ranked game and you're in your promos or something. I've got one solution to this that maybe Riot can consider. Teams with the AFK shouldn't lose LP but the winning team can gain the LP from the win. The player has to be at least AFK for 20 min or some certain amount of time and/or was AFK till the end of the game. I know there are lots of better solutions out there but I'm just giving my suggestion. The current punishment or penalty for AFK won't stop the anger of the players and the loss of LP. Just because a player has to wait a lengthened queue or is suspended doesn't mean another player isn't going to AFK in a game. Please Riot. Please read this and consider. I think this would benefit the game play and the community as a whole.

That, and you are statistically just as likely to win from an enemy AFK. So the problem doesn't even really affect Ranked integrity. At least not to the same level that premades do.

We're going to be getting /Remake soon so it's kinda pointless.
