Riot: The amount of afks/dc

The amount of disconnects lately has been utterly impossible to play with. Either on their team or ours, doesn't matter. Makes playing this game a waste of time and no fun at all. There is a afk or dc in probably close to 50% of my games of late. And i dont play anything other than ranked. I enjoy playing ranked when this game is running smoothly and correctly the way it was intended. But can't even get that, half the time don't have a fair chance to even win let alone have any fun. Can outplay another team and still lose cause you lose a player 15 min in that never comes back. Even have had quite a few that are just afk from the very beginning of the game. Should these not be loss forgiven? at least for the ones who stayed and tried to maybe win.i dont mind losing in a fair game but this kinda really sucks. I dont have a answer to this. Just kinda sucks i guess cause i play when i can and can't play nearly as much as a lot of people do so getting on for 2 games that are a waste of time is just that, a waste of time and money. idk if you can fix this or not just really venting.

Sometimes I think disconnections are a myth.

Sometimes I think players are out just to ruin your time.

Friend of mine was duoing with me, announced he wanted to win the match since it was my 3rd promo match. Proceed that one of them didn't even leave the loading screen: he never once showed up or reconnected during or after the match.

Well recently riot has been experiencing record Ddos attacks on their servers providers meaning it is extrememly hard for them to deal with them all hence the rise in dcs and afks

I'm so pissed about this, last 3 games i loss because of players disconecting or going afk and i dont even get a loss prevented , my number of games lost is rising and it bothers me because its not that we are losing because the other team is better i think riot should pay more atention on loss prevention because it sucks that when a player its gone since the begining of the game it doesnt even give you loss prevented and 1 game i got a disconection because of the server it said i needed to turn off my firewall and i did and still can't log in, please riot fix your loss prevention system because it isnt working very well or if its working its not doing what we players want, prevent our losing score from rising when its because afk and dc players.
