I have heard riot say that jail doesn't work but why does it work in other games?

The best example I can give is killer instincts jail system where if you afk too much you are just flat out locked out of ranked. Hell I hear that even overwatch does the same sort of thing.

That isn't the "jail" they are talking about. The concept of a "Prisoner's Island" isn't the inability to play, it's putting them in their own queue with each other, and the reason they say it doesn't work for them is because it is really bad for reforming players, which is what Riot is trying to accomplish.
