The Current AFK Problem..

Riot really needs to crack down a little harder on people leaving matches, especially ranked matches, than the current leaverbuster system is offering. In my last 5 games between any of my accounts I've won 1 game, and that game was the only fair 5v5 game I had across all of them. In my other four, I've had an Aatrox top ragequit, a Yasuo top ragequit, a Vayne adc ragequit, and a Lucian adc ragequit. I've never had near as much of a problem with this issue than I have in the past two patches and it's really making me consider whether I should keep playing League or not. Even though I've been playing for 7 years, it's just really frustrating when 80% of my matches are effectively unwinnable because it is a 4v5.

The only time I ever even attempt to have fun playing anymore is with 5 man groups of friends (BECAUSE THE AFK LUCIAN GAME WAS WITH A FOUR MAN), but my issue there is that none of my friends are ranked as high as me, so I cant ever play ranked with them even though I generally prefer the higher pressure/stakes of ranked. All around I'm just kinda salty and venting since I never get to play a fair game of League of Legends anymore, and it makes me really sad my favorite go to game over the years has degraded to people just giving up after they die 2-4 times and not even attempt to play the game..

UPDATE: I've played 4 more games and had 3 more afks in those.. I've now had 7 afks in 9 games. I don't know what Riot wants from me, but this is becoming more and more depressing.

I would honestly go with the one and done rule. First time you decide to ragequit? You're done, gone, end of story.

5 fucking afks in 2 days and a total of what? 7 games? Rito needs to 2 week ban all those fuckers. It's so fucking frustrating to lose games cause some %%%%s decide to not play the game they chose to. Even if they have internet problems, I don't give a fuck. Fix them before you play. Or get fucking banned. I literally have to play with 4 premades to not have afk problem. Countless times I have been in a game where we were 4 premades and the 5th guy just went afk. DO SOMETHING RIOT.

It sounds like only AD champs are ragequitting, coincidence?
