4 AFK Games in a Row after 10 Mins...New Remake Options plz!?

Why is it fair that I get penalized cause my teammates afk at 10-20 mins? A new remake option should be installed so that at 20 minutes, if they afk, I can ff without penalty.

That is very controversial. Although I get very frustrated when I lose a team mate at 15-20 minutes and have no way of remaking and just having to play 4v5. There should be a five minute window from when the player disconnects that they get to reconnect back to the game other wise I think there could possibly be a surrender/remake vote and the team with the afker should not lose any lp or if they do make it like -5 lp and if a team wins only give them 10lp or something. Very touchy and difficult subject, the answer I gave isn't the best way to solve that but it is a very difficult thing to control when a player DC's midgame.

I absolutely agree with this statement. Much better than my idea, cause yea at times I do DC too for just Lag spikes... but not a whole like game xD So maybe a window for them to come back and if they dont, we can ff with a smaller or no penalty.

This topic comes up every now and again, but the issue is that it's pretty abusable.

Usually within the first 3 minutes it's hard to tell who has the advantage. That's fine.

But after 15-20 minutes? This could create awkward situations where people queue with friends on smurf accounts to DC from losing games so their main account doesn't lose LP, or where players are actively encouraged to try to convince other players to disconnect so they don't lose LP, which would create a toxic environment. Just imagine: "You're the guy responsible for mid getting fed. Take responsibility for your fuck-up and DC so we don't lose points as well, noob."

It sucks to have DCs in your game, definitely. But those two concerns are major issues with the methods you've proposed.

Another good point. People would also just disconnect their internet to save themselves LP. Yes some people would go that far.

it can be abused lets say your in your promos and losing bad and its the 10-13 mark you can convince someone who is NOT in the promos to drop out so that they can have another shot at their promos
