Honestly, I agree with you to a agree but think about it this way. Lets say that Riot did add the loss prevention for an afk player. Now, lets say that you are winning hard and your about to break into their base. An enemy player afk's before you destroy inhib tower. Now even though you won, they get no penalty for losing and they wont lose LP.

This guy is right, while it really does suck losing because of an AFK player, it would be difficult for the game to appropriately determine when to declare a match loss as "Loss Forgiven."

Now, certain conditions could be used, for instance,

  1. If a Player goes AFK within the 1st 8 minutes of the game and
  2. The player remains AFK for atleast 10 minutes and
  3. The player must remain atleast 3 levels behind the average game level, should he return.

Just my own thoughts, that way the game would only give out "Loss Forgiven" in situations that actually call for it.

Perhaps instead of a Loss Forgiven, then game could adjust the LP loss to be minimal, but increase the potential gains for the team down a man? That way there would be still be motivation for trying to pull out the 4v5 victory?

That said, I would not penalize the team of 5, sure it would be an easier win, but their laddering time and effort should not be made less productive or rewarding because some guy on the other team AFKed.

I was about to post a discussion on a similar issue. Just finished a game where we were ahead and our adc is crying about us not letting him get kills. To me, you need to get your own kills with your skills. Why should a team give up a sure kill for a "ok maybe i can kill him with my low hp". And the trolls for the rest of the game. Making everyone lose out because he sucked. The ranking system should be based upon our skills, not the team's win or lose. Someone can play at their best and still lose because of a teammate being stupid. Why not make the ranking system base on our kdr or damage dealt, etc. Obviously riot keeps track of these things with their new system. Maybe make use of what they have implemented.
