Does closing a lobby no longer dodge a game?

So last night I was in a ranked game lobby, where I didn't like our comp and I decided I was too tilted to play another game, it simply wasn't worth it. So I left the lobby and closed the client with plenty of time (10s+) to spare.

I've logged on this morning to find the game counted as a Leaver Loss and I've lost LP, despite me leaving with plenty of time the game was still made and I've obviously not loaded in and the game has been remade with me at fault.

Did Riot change the amount of time needed to leave a lobby to dodge? Is it a bug? Has anyone else experienced this?

If that's indeed the case, then that is complete dog shit. Matchmaker is enough of a random dice roll as it is.

If someone is trolling with an off meta pick that they literally have never played before, because they got auto filled, or are because they are just looking to ruin a game, you should have every right to cut and bail from the match, without getting an actual loss for it.
