Disconnect Surrender

I imagine this has come up a thousand times, but with Smite introducing something similar i believe in a recent patch, i wanted to address it

If someone on a team never connects to the match (during the initial loading screen), that team should be able to Surrender at 10 minutes, and the four other players given a Loss Forgiven if in a ranked game, because there's simply nothing they could possibly do if they never had a 5th teammate since the very beginning

Its not impossible but your chances go down a lot and there is really nothing that you can do but prey the other team is crap and can't figure out how either to outnumber you in team fights or split push un-countered.

It's doubtful that he has a source. Riot has addressed this issue before to the effect that it's difficult to implement a system that is difficult to abuse without simply excluding premades who have a member with an actual connection issue.

Actually I do have a source, check my reply to Sneaky. I just didn't post it because I didn't really want to go searching for it

I agree. Games are lost way to often do to someone going afk. AFK is the worst thing that could happen in ranked and having to be stuck there for 20 mins is dumb.

I'd prefer a random queue if that weren't possible. To show your skills of champion diversity well playing behind you will be selected in a game where there is an afk, in order to do so the team mates have to agree because people like playing with their friends and what ever. Of course it would mean bonus ip to the individual and or a new type of medal system like honor, but for volunteering your team mates would give o.0
