Surrender at 15:00 , Summoner's Rift ?

I'd really like to see Riot enable surrender at 15:00 at Summoner's Rift . Sometimes , those games in which you have a troll , afk , or get totally destroyed by opposing team , it can be clear at 10th minute or so that you will almost certainly lose . We've all had those games , and those 5-10 minutes seemed like unnecessary , frustrating , time-draining torture . It would be great if we wouldn't waste time and energy in such a infamous way , and could just surrender it at 15:00 . I assume that main reason why surrender is unavailable before 20:00 is the fact that people could just give up because of few early kills and press surrender at 10 minutes or so because there is 6/0 LeeSin in the enemy team , who is building full AD and can be nuked easily with proper counterplay. Taking that in consideration , maybe it's not the best idea to put surrender available at 10:00 , but 15:00 seems just fine to assume that there are very low chances of you winning the game .

Actually, there were a couple games in the past year whereas we had to 4v5....and it was very difficult and we lost more turrets by min 20 but then we actually won in the end and the enemy team couldnt believe it and was very frustrated bc it took them about 50 minutes to lose, all 3-4 games that we won 4v5

Whats stopping you from just leaving the game if the match is no longer enjoyable?

I'd prefer a change to surrender at 25:00. Too many people want to throw in the towel too early and justify it because someone else was struggling early game.

Every other map has a surrender time of 15 though.

I just had a ranked game yesterday. I was Teemo vs Darius top lane. I believe he was 5/0 or something (yes I was 0/5/0) before he started roaming. They got nearly all our towers and all lanes were pushing. Every was certain we would lose.

Good opportunity for a 15 minute surrender, right?

I said in chat (to the team begging for surrender): "Alright, guys I know I've been feeding Darius. This might sound impossible but I'm going to focus and win this game."

I went 10/7/11 and we WON.
