Why dont people ff

So hopped in ranked and got a game where a one trick smurf goes 9/0 and has IE and Stormrazor at 13 min. This in itself is fine. Smurf exist and sometimes games just go this way. Why I had to then convince my team that surrendering was the best move here is what confuses me. The lux support was upset bc it was her promos. Bad proms happen youll get promos again later. Lux thought I was flaming her and saying it was her fault, which eventually I was able to explain that I really did not blame her for losing lane so hard, Its draven after all, the definition of snowball. This game went onto 25 min and both MF and my Jungler refused to surreder even though every lane lost and draven was unkillable. Does this happen in your games, and is there a way to deal with/report these players?

There's only one answer - Because they don't have to.

Here's another tip for you - don't play ranked. Ever. Please.

Want to know the only way to ONE HUNDRED PERCENT guarantee yourself a ranked loss? Surrender. No matter how small a chance of winning, the only way you garen-fucking-tee (see what I did there) a loss for yourself is to surrender. Wnat to know what people are good at? Throwing games. The longer it does, the better they throws. I've had fed-as-fuck people like that Draven win games for my team by quitting because he's pissed that he can't end the game.

reported under what category? Not wanting to give up? If next time you get into a very winnable game and your team wants to surrender at 15 because score is 3-0, you're okay with either 100% lose that game via surrender or risk getting banned?

20 to 3 =/= 3 to 0

but we're not just talking about that game yes? we're talking about all possible games. he's asking if refusing to surrender should be reportable, not just refusing to surrender THAT game.

Big difference between 1 losing lane and 3 losing lanes.

zPOOPzFeb 5, 20202 votes

Again, that is not the topic of discussion. Why are you so stuck on that game? I am talking about refusing to surrender being reported as a policy. Then consider the scenario I posted. It does happen....so then what? Reportable if I don't want to surrender a 3-0 game at 15?

It's an extremely often scenario, I literally just watched it happen to Tyler1. Game is 5 to 20, 3 losing lanes fed master yi, but his team still doesn't FF at 15, the game ended at 17 minutes with their nexus being killed. Absolutely no reason to not FF.

and absolutely no reason to be reportable for not wanting to FF either. Otherwise, that FF "vote" is just a big trap isn't it? You're fucked if you vote "yes" (guaranteed loss) and you're fucked if you vote "no" (reportable?)

Literally anything is reportable, there is nothing stopping you from reporting someone for any reason. The OP is simply asking others opinions on if he should report players who deny surrender votes for no reason.

This is going nowhere. Let's just leave it...wherevere it is.

You want to stop the conversation after you realize you misread the OP's post, I accept that.

zPOOPzFeb 5, 20201 votes

No, I want to stop the conversation because I realized you're not going to budge on your stance and I won't budge on mine. There doesn't need to be a "winner". I didn't misread anything nor do I want to have a pointless convo with some anonymous stranger on the internet on a subject I ceased to have any interest in with that person.

Do you always have a need to "win"? It's not a real question and I'm not interested to know the answer. I won't reply to you anymore on this thread...

Because its RL OP. Stakes are too high. A loss means a death IRL. No one can afford this! Not them, not me. Not YOU!

Comeback is always possible even in seemingly impossible situations. I faced teams throwing their advantage when they are winning. It's wrong that some don't want to give up yet?

because in ranked players only care about winning and surrendering is not winning (not even for the enemy team). if you want to surrender on the fly make a premade of 4 so you can surrender games to your heart's content. but if players don't want to surrender you cannot force them to. and spamming it won't make them change their mind.
