You can report them, but I don't think anything happens to AFK players. You can get LeaverBuster IF you're gone long enough that the game flags you as AFK. That only happens 50% of the time from my experience. I believe someone "rage quitting" at the end of the game so that the enemy team can push and end is reportable. But to verify and issue a penalty, someone from the Riot team would have to investigate, and I can't imagine they waste money on employee headcount to do this for the millions of reports they get each week.

Even those players who leave long enough to get tagged with LeaverBuster, you have to reach a certain % of games being leaves before the game punishes you.

Really the only negative behavior that is reliably punished is text-based, because it does not require human review. Abusive chat, hate speech, offensive name. Everything else is a waste of a report. Which is sad, because someone can be toxic and still win a game, but someone who leaves a match is actually stealing -17 or so LP from his teammates. I'd rather have a toxic player than a leaver any day.

Great!

No you did not have this every "two or three games." The exaggeration in all of these posts is truly epic.

It's another example of game design that encourages bad behavior by Riot/Tencent.
