Riot should allow for promos/series wins to be conserved if game is decided by leaver.

Within the past week I have gotten from Silver IV into my promos for Silver II. During my promos my first game consisted of a toxic player who continued to flame not only our team, but the enemy team as well. In the second and final game, someone on my team fed (not sure whether it was intentional or not), and then left. I am not angry because someone fed or left in ranked, I am angry at the fact that I was kicked all the way down to 67 Lp due to players who cannot mute people and keep playing. I think that if you are in a promos/series and a game is decided by a person who left, then it should not be taken against you. I understand that that would be hard and nobody could predict if you would've still lost that game. Another solution to this problem is making the Lp lost not as substantial. I just recently played a game where my jungler left and my team won many team-fights as 4, we did not win the game and I did not feel any joy whilst playing it. League has brought me many years of joy, but I am not sure I can continue playing if nothing is done about me feeling as though I am being punished when other people leave and/or feed. I occasionally have bad games and feed the enemy team (never intentionally), but I never give up until my nexus has exploded. Riot, I hope you do something about this.

As with most suggestions, I fear I must point out that this will be easily abusable.

Game with people doing bad, at least one in promos. Starts begging for someone to leave/afk in chat (maybe promising or even being sincere that they will gift a skin/RP after) so they don't lose their promo games.

Riot should have a system that if your teammates afk, whether they have connection issues and never made it back or rage quit, then you shouldn't deserve to lose the 18-20 lp, but instead lose something like 5 or 10lp. Losing 0 lp for eveyrone while the afk is force to lose the full 20 feels like unfair in Riot's perspective. But nobody besides those that were still in game should end up stuck in a 40 min game and ends up losing cause of a afk/quitter.

As for promos, I think it will still be consider a lost for you. A lost will always make you play that extra 3rd or 4th or 5th game, however they should make it you get the better teammates next time. Speaking of teammates, promos this season has been bad for everyone. Everyone is pair up with teammates that are worst than the other teammates you climbed with to get your way to promos. I really want this part address like this upcoming next season. I'm sure by now everyone is tired of redoing their promos over and over for like 5 straight times.

Nah; Riot don't give a care about Toxic players or leavers. I've had 3 afks in my last three games. Matchmakings a joke of luck.

Almost every game I've had this season win/or loss has been solely based on who dosen't get the 0-8 or an afk. Little to no games I've won have actually been based on skill. Just the team I get on que,

b-but then their game becomes more fair...

thats not allowable by riots rules.

it has to be as rng as possible so they can make it just like LCS.

fast paced team required gameplay where 1 awful player can solo lose everyone the game but "just move on" is their quote.
