Surrender button in ranked needs to be moved to 45 Mins instead of 20mins

You shouldn't be surrendering in ranked, EVER. If you get frustrated and want to quit, then don't play ranked. Go play normals or arams. Ranked is a competitive area where people want to climb and WIN. If your gonna be a little bitch about riven feeding 3 kills top and already Ff'ing at 20. Then don't play ranked. EVERY SINGLE GAME can be won. This is solo queue, not LCS, solo queue players don't know how to close out a game. If you have to grind through a 55+ Min game to win, then so be it. Thats the joy of ranked, to climb, you'll never climb if you quit so easily because of a bad play.

To often do I see people just FF at 20, and me being forced to lose 25 LP, for a game that could have been won.

Sometimes people do give up too early, but really if 4 people on your team don't think you can win then you aren't going too. Even if that thought was objectively wrong.

By 20 minutes you have all the information you need to pretty accurately predict if you are going to win or not. There is just no reason to continue in many cases.

Then those people shouldn't play ranked, any game can be won, the mentality that a game is lost, because your 5k gold behind or something is ridiculous. Even 10k gold, it's solo queue, people will throw, people will mess up, any game can be come back from unless the team has a 30k Gold lead and has all your turrets. Never surrender, its ranked come in with the attitude that you can always win, you never see people in sports quit, because theres little time left and there at a huge loss in score.

Any game can be won, but what chance though? If there's a low enough chance it is just better to go onto the next game.

Gold deficit is not the reason to surrender, its the cause of the deficit is. At the start of the game your team was losing with gold being even. So if they couldn't win with a level playing field why should you think they can win an uphill battle? Most cases not surrendering is just stalling hoping for the other team to throw. Which certainly does happen. But they simply not worth the time to most people.

Its a vote for a reason. When to surrender is an opinion. Acting like yours is the only valid one is silly.
