I feel defeated before I even play Ranked Games.

Sometimes, there are people who tell you that they will outright troll in the lobby. Then, what happens is that you have match making queues happening, after dropping, because that troll keeps getting back in queue. This causes more people to dodge. I might go to ideas and feedback to shoot this idea later, but I wish there was a instant ranked ban type thing. I'll explain it later on the other community.

How can I turn a toxic situation I can't get out of, into a positive one? I also hope that there are people out there who actually report the AFK on the other team, just because you won your game because it was a 4v5 the whole time, doesn't mean it's right.

I agree completely. All too often, I see players who outright say "F%&! you guys, I am doing whatever I want." And completely disregard the team comp or open roles. Many times, they have even outright said they are gonna troll hard. These players want to lose to watch people get mad.

I really think the best option for riot to combat this would be to have a "vote to kick" option in the lobby screen.

At least in that case, no one has to dodge to avoid playing a game (and losing) with a troll and being wrongfully penalized. If the vote to kick option were implemented, it should require a majority of the team lobby (like surrendering). If a majority agreed to kick the player, then it should treat it as if the kicked player dodged the queue (and penalize them with the LP loss and temporary queue ban to prevent getting in a lobby with them again.)

I know riot may never see this comment, but I feel like it's a start. I'm tired of being trolled by people smurfing on accounts they don't care about and throwing games. Yes I am still scrounging around in Silver, but if the option to kick players in the champ select lobby were implemented, I feel the game would be much more enjoyable as well as a more accurate representation of players' skills.

It has been a while since I reported someone for AFK because there has been situations where things irl come up and I just can't stay on the game. But I do report people who go AFK once they begin losing.

I feel like Riot is only trying to assist the trolls. Half the games I lose in Ranked are because of trolls/afk. I can dodge because the 2 League Points I scraped up from 37 victories is too valuable to lose by dodging because a troll. You win 1, maybe 2 league points from a 9 hour game. Then you lose a 19 minute game because of a troll and you lose 56 League Points.

I really like the "vote to kick" idea :o. You should put that on ideas and feedback. But i totally agree with you too Amanda. I lost my qualifier to gold once because someone didn't want me to get through and trolled hard, so I get where you're coming from. (Never made it to gold ;'{ )

I talked about exactly this and gave an in-depth explanation as to how to stop these guys in my post, you really should take a look at it and show it to a few people if you don't mind. TEAMWORK OP!
