Game dodging epidemic!
Has anyone else noticed a huge increase in the number of game dodgers? I usually got through 2-3 dodges per actual match.
Anyone else experiencing this?
Can we increase the penalty for dodging or something?

how many total are we talking in this "epidemic"? and which game mode?
Been trying to get into a match right now. So far I've had 4 AFK (non accepts) and 2 dodges. Shit is very annoying, takes like 15 minutes just to get into a match lately.

want to reduce dodging? the eliminate autofill. better they dodge, than you get stuck with an autofill jungle
Not a player behavior issue. Take it over to gameplay and suggest a change to how queues work. You know if a queue breaks on you 4 times it's not the same person dodging each time, right?
Problem 1: Players have inflated MMR and an INSANELY negative win rates... (meaning you can have a 33% win rate overall and still be silver//gold - makes sense? because it really doesn't to me) Problem 2: Lower tier players (bronze, silver, and gold, and silver//gold//plat "MMR") are being matched together (probably shouldn't be happening... considering the way MMR works but what do i know? riot doesn't see a problem!) Problem 3: The games that you're actually getting into are games that are 100% coin-flips or heavily one sided due to Problem 1, and 2 (and because some people do actually know how to check teammates before hand and make a decision then to dodge or play...)
Solution: Revert positional MMR (you still get LP based on the position you played at its own individual MMR, it needs to be removed.) If you think about it, actually lowering the penalty of dodging (the wait time, not the LP loss) would actually be better to get more players into more games across single accounts instead of having to force a player to make 3-4+
Fun fact: I've dodged more games than I've played today, among 3 different accounts because 2 of them had 30 minute wait times due to multiple dodges in a row from Problem 1, and problem 2... (problem 1 and 2 makes playing not fun, so why play, hens influx of dodges)
