Surrender voting system needs to be changed

Both of bot lane rage quit after feeding Kallista, and our syndra refused to surrender a 3v5.

I don't care what anyone says but if you're gonna force your teammates to play a 3v5 you can have fun by yourself, i refuse to play a match that is literally unwinnable

I was under the impression that it only takes 2 yes votes to surrender when there's only 3 players in the game. Has that changed?

Either yes it was, or it was always this way in the first place. As far as i'm aware it takes 70% of votes to equal a surrender, and with 3 people, 2 yes'es is only 66%

70% seems a strange choice of number. The standard 4-vote requirement is 80%, while a single-afk 3-vote is 75%. One would think if they wanted to ensure that it takes at least 3 people voting to surrender, they'd just set it to 75%. Even 65% would work to allow 2-vote surrenders on a 3-man team, because 3/5 is merely 60%.

That's not to argue with you, mind. Merely thinking out loud about how silly a breakpoint that is.

I'll test this myself later on to verify, but it seems strange that a supermajority vote would be insufficient to allow a surrender.

uhhh, no.

I've been in that situation before, and it is 2/3 = surrender

3/4 = surrender

4/5 = surrender

anything less and it continues.

never been in a 2v5 before, but I imagine one person is all it takes.

Well clearly 2/3 does not equal surrender anymore, because we had to wait for the enemy team to actually end because syndra wouldn't surrender

Did they end before the vote timer finished? That may have been why the surrender didn't go through.

At the end of the 60 seconds, if <70% of the team has agreed to surrender, the vote fails and cannot be initiated again for three minutes. If >70% do agree to surrender, the game will end in victory for the opposite team.

2/3 = 66% 3/4 = 75% 4/5 = 80%

Yes. Thank you. That had already been pointed out to me. I even made a post about the oddity of 70% as a break-point.

It's always needed an update. If there's 3 that say yes and 2 that say no, then it should go to the 3. It needs to be a majorities rules set up.

Easy way to deal with unfair afk situations is ask the enemy team to all shove mid and you guys chill in top or bot. The game goes quickly
