Come on Riot, really?

Can't win them all, but having Rioters leave mid game should not go unpunished as they are the ones that SHOULD promote positive game experiences.

In Riot Blastoise's defense, he was being caught by a squad of ninjas at his web cafe

but having Rioters leave mid game

I would expect them to be held to the same standards as everyone else. And judging from the state of the game I would expect leavebuster to add about 30 seconds to their recent dc time.

TBH though, that game looks hella over from that point and you need to consider they are still people, he/ she probably didn't want to wait for the game to end (as he called for an ff; "-.ff" ) as he put a lot of his faith into a plan that didnt work.

feel like people semi blow stuff rioters may do in games out of proportion, yea if they are toxic or leave mid game they should most likely be punished with reason, but if he leaves when the teams getting plowed in base after just losing 2 team fights yea man i would want to leave too.

they are people too, ive played with rioters on pbe, its nothing special they play just like us; their names just have riot in them, we didnt win becuse he was i rioter we won because we played and did well.

i dont know these are my thoughts on the situation.

Doesn't matter, they are the Rioters, they are expected and held to a higher position because they are Rioters, they have rules set, and leaving the game, no matter how done it is, is against the rules. He should be punished.

I didn't saw the game, nor know the elo, but because he is a Rioter, I feel that people did try to hold him hostage the game, like they do in many matches whey they are winning with the "don't end" mentality. Feels like trash to be on the losing side of that, so having him leave such a game because of that wouldn't be something that bad, as it does show he doesn't support it. I mean, if I were in his place and stay to lose a "don't end" team, it would mean that I have nothing against it, which would be wrong.

Then again, you can't know what happened in real life, maybe something came up and the fact that he left at the end of the game was just a coincidence. Just because he is a Rioter doesn't mean he doesn't have a real life outside of the game.

And he will be punished like everyone else... If he has frequently done so. Rioters are allowed to have emergencies too. That's what Leaver Buster was designed for.

Yea he should not be allowed to do that without risking his job. He is meant to be an example for others. With power comes responsabilty.
