Leave buster cracking down for the wrong reason's? Can we prevent conflict in game with changes?

Leave Buster, we know it well. Each and every one of us have had to deal with the leave buster system at some point I'm sure. I do notice however, that even if you leave for all the right reasons, such as; Team is being toxic to one another just in the loading screen, or someone banned someones champ they where hovering out of sheer spite of that person not giving them their lane they wanted, etcetera etcetera etcetera. I firmly believe that there can be a simple and easy solution to this problem, that does not result in so many people having to sit out 5+ minutes due to them trying to prevent conflict/issue. I believe a simple system like the surrender mechanic could work. Say it could be used up until the last champ is picked, but once they are picked: leave buster activates. If anyone at Riot or anyone else in general has a better idea, please speak up and give your idea. I just think this is one of our best options in-stead of having to close the client and restart the game AND wait 5+ minutes.

Every time someone posts asking for a "authorized dodge" or similar system, I ask them where they got their crystal ball that shows them what's going to be done in-game before the game starts.

Riot is considering/internally testing a system to report toxic chat before game. However, that is the only thing that can be done before game that is punishable. You cannot punish trolling/inting/afk/leave before it happens.

Yes, they can. Here's how it will work:

If 3 players agree to kick a player, the game is disbanned. It is then reviewed. It the player kicked was one of those "I got support but im going mid" players, they're permabanned. If the player did nothing wrong, the other 3 are. Solves the issue right there.
