Just a Rant...

So I was in a ranked game just now with 99 lp to enter my promos and we were all having fun. I carried the game 12/4/11 and 2 minutes before the game ended I disconnected due to a power outage (there's a storm outside that literally just started during game). The thing is, we were so far ahead that my team managed to win anyway and before i can reconnect, the game already ended. So basically i got placed on leaver buster from a game i carried, lost all of my mastery points, lost my chances on promos, have to do it all over again with low que priority over 1 dc for the last 2 minutes before ONE GAME that WE ALSO WON ended. I believe I also forgot to mention that we had a Jinx on our team that played less than me because she also disconnected but did not get punished because she reconnected around 5 minutes before the game ended. I had no sign of raging the entire game, I was very mannered during the game (you can even check the chat history), and i managed to reconnect 7 minutes before the game saying, "there is a storm outside, pls lets finish." I also have very few Disconnections that only happen during emergencies (around 5 cases in the last 3-4 years). I believe that the severity of the punishment that I got was very proportional compared to what actually happened. I have been with this game for a very long time and I know when I have messed up (bad behaviour, feeding, etc), and tried really hard to change. But i believe this case is very unjustified and very unfair to me considering the circumstances and the lack of anyone losing any lp or games.

Leagues system at the moments are run by bots if I'm not mistaken. Giving out punishments if they meet a certain criteria. Though I'm sorry man, that sucks. Send in a ticket to their support staff and they may fix it

I remember a tornado knocked the power out while I was in the middle of a game once. Logged back in later to see that I was on leaver buster. At the same time, I got a message saying someone had been punished for verbal harassment due to my report and Riot thanked me. How dafuq you gonna put me on leaver buster and thank me at the same time?

I know that feel man. I had a friend who'd have a shitty connection and get dc every now and then, ending in a leaverbuster. Eventually we'd just made the 5 times 20 mins, and litterely the round after that he was dc by his internet. That about 3 times in row.

I predict that this either will be ignored, or Riot will answer back in 8 hours.
