Leaverbuster for server issues???

had 3 back to back games this morning; 1st - unable to connect, found the game in match history, 5 people were unable to connect to that game and all received lp loss for the remake. 2nd - connected this time, but adc's for both teams did not. remake. 3rd unable to connect, same situation where multiple people were effected in the match history. I now have a 5 min penalty for 5 games.... that's 35 minutes of queue time (total average) for 5 games....being punished for spending 45 mins trying to get a game earlier this morning. something doesn't add up.

Why the hell were you still playing? 5 People not connecting to 1 game would throw SO many red flags.

I was punished for this problem of the bug where people weren't able to connect and due to this problem I was punished with leaver buster so now I have 5 20minute low priority queues.

They probably should temporarily remove the penalty from games that pushed people toward the leavebuster during these server issues, but as a side question;

May I ask why you didn't try to discover the issue before you re-queued?

I mean, the very first queue should have pointed that there was a problem on the server when all 5 people were unable to connect. A quick check to the forum or the server status would have likely shown that the server was experiencing some issues.

I can see both sides of the argument: You are getting punished for a server error that wasn't your fault but you should've understood there was a problem. Honestly I think they should've disabled ranked
