Question, if my turd adc afks at 3 min, why do i have to endure another 12 minutes of my life in a lost game ?

Plz answer me riot.

And ofc, another turd troll will say no at 15 and it will drag until 20, in what demented universe does this makes sense ?

The /Remake vote is meant to mitigate the damage done by people who fail to connect or leave before a match begins - sadly, it offers no protection against people leaving as the match kicks off.

The Early Surrender is meant to allow players a (currently) unanimous vote to call the match lost - ten minutes in would be far too short to tell in most cases, so fifteen minutes is the margin where Riot allows people to determine - as a team - that the match is going downhill.

Then, of course, the 20-minute Surrender is there to allow players to call a match done via majority vote.

There is some good news, though - Riot plans to reduce the Early Surrender vote requirements from unanimous to vast majority vote (so from 5/5 down to 4/5, 4/4 to 3/4, etc.) sometime in the near future.

id rather have an afk adc than a feeder adc turd, just be positive about it !

Remember these words?

Doesn't sound you like afk adcs as much now as you did in the past eh buddy?

Because surrendering is toxic behavior.

The 15 min surrender is like a grace period where if you catch up within those 5 min, you can still win but if, all of you are so far behind to the point where it's next to impossible for them to throw, then you have a way out.

The sad part is that you’re so impatient, you can’t enjoy the game for 15 min without wanting an immediate surrender.

If the game is lost at 10 min, try to do something that you consider fun. Set a mini-goal, like “I’m going to get to 200 CS before we surrender” or “I’m going to get shutdown on X fed enemy” and have fun with it. Just don’t troll trying to accomplish them.
