Low Priority Queue for 1 AFK

I've been playing this game since Season 2. I've left games on my old accounts a few times a season and I was never really punished.

Everyone has to AFK a game once in a while.

Fast forward to Season 8 I'm on a different account, after exactly 50 ranked games I left one game. ONE GAME. I got placed in low priority 20 minute queues for 5 games.

That is ridiculous, is it not? I had one AFK game and now I have to wait a total of 100 minutes to play 5 league games.

The system is flawed. I didn't get a warning like you used to get for an AFK game. Not even a 5 minute priority queue. Straight to the dreaded 100 minute wait to play this game.

I'm sure the people at Riot are so egotistical to think that they can make people wait to play their stupid game.

Ranked games (to my information) are treated more seriously then blinds, i have afked 3 games in a row before and still unbanned.

I don't think low priority lasts more than 5 games. Just power through it

And everyone has to wait 100 minutes to play 5 games once in a while. I see afk people in my team every fking day and I'm glad that at least one of them got punished.

You skipped through all the other tiers of punishments and went straight through the 20 minute one? Perhaps they've changed things but this doesn't seem to add up to to me.
