Being held hostage in urf

Is it reportable for holding people hostage in URF? I just spent 20 minutes where every second I spawned I got hooked, pulled, or whatever other cced and died. The entire enemy team was just sitting outside the fountain and two people on my team refused to surrender. Instead, the other team let those two go and clear the waves while they camped our fountain. My only option was to quit the game to stop wasting time, but then I risk getting banned. So what can I do when my team refuses to surrender and is working with the other team?

Is this something Riot condones? That URF game literally made me consider quitting the game.

It's called trolling and it is reportable. Just don't mention you are going too

Unfortunately this was such a painful experience that I've decided to quit the game now. I play this game to destress and do something mind numbing. The fact that this can happen so easily with no recourse, wasting my time and making me miserable, means that League is not the right game for me anymore.

Damn dude, just chill when that happens. You sound like you were annoyed, and instead of just going alright this is happening now, whatever... you went the opposite way and it took it super seriously and embraced the rage and let it eat you. Just idk... cant you laugh at how absurd the situation is? I get it... ive let anger consume before, just recently when my computer flipped out and somehow opened twitch, causing a standstill in load screen, which i made the mistake of alt tabbing to see what was going on, which added probably 3 minutes of waiting for processes... it fucking enraged me. But 30 seconds after it, I laughed at myself. I laughed at how mad i was getting over a 5 minute delay. The fact that i was really getting that upset was just funny in retrospect. Like here I am spoiled sitting in a comfortable house with this amazing technology of playing a video game online with other people, and im flipping the fuck out. Sometimes you just gotta take a step back and think of how absurd it is to get that upset over a video game, or a computer fucking up.

If you are getting spawnkilled, go do something else. Not like you get leaverbusted for dying, and you can't really be reported for inting on KDA alone since its urf.

Then come back and report all 7 of them after the game is over.

Pretty sure this isn't bannable? I mean, you can always report people for whatever reason, but you're unlikely to get someone banned by something that isn't against the policy. It's sort of a part of the game mode though. URF gives 80% CDR, so obviously chain CC can allow for a permastun, especially if you're not banning Veigar, Malzahar, or other high CC characters, and your teammates are allowed to hit no on surrender votes. Just don't play the game mode.

i would yes it is, heres why.

the problem currently with urf is the elder dragon. its anti fun.

each dragon gives a 20% damage swing, plus true damage, plus all the other stats. its basicly a free auto win to the team that gets its kinda wasting the champ picking/ban they added back. as you need to pick strong laners so you have a chance to fight for that urf dragon. when it comes up.

as is the dragon is making the mode a 10 min lane phase then a stomp/or ff once a team gets a dragon forcing the game to end fast.this is anti fun. i yet to have a urf game get to 30 min since they added dragon and thats even with ppl not ending the game for 5 min while they stand on top of losing teams nexus waiting for them to respwan so they can kill them in fountain. (games used to range from short to +40 min with the longer games being more back and fourth on old ver of urf.)

the fountain camping shows two things.

people want the game to be longer. since ppl mlik the game for like 5 min like this in almost all the games.

the dragon is making the winning team so strong so fast that they can drive the losing team(team that did not get dragons) in fountain and still prob kill them at like 10-20 min mark. and still easly win most time even if the winning team ints a bunch in fountain for a few more kills .

and the worst thing is these stats the dragon gives are semi hidden stats(listed in tooltip) so there are somehow people still out there that dont know how much power that damn dragon is giving which mean some people on your team might not even try to contest the dragon, cause they dont know its almost an auto win.

games being auto won/lost by one sole objective at 10 min sucks a lot of the fun out of the mode.

also forced objective interactions over op objective is basically encouraging people to more competitive/aka tryhards rather then to just have fun.

in the pbe people tried to tell riot about how the urf dragon was anti fun. and snowballing the game to much...riot dident care. this is why i think riot wants it to be like this so it will likely stay like this till people stop asking for urf..
