Toxic Lobbies. Solution: Lobby Abort Vote?
I just dodged a ranked game... Starts out with one person banning another person's "declared champion".
(paraphrasing)
Person B: Why did you do that?
Person A: Because you were a @*#$ last game.
Person B: (sarcasm) Well, you're going to LOVE me now.
Person A: Go ahead and feed. IDC..
Me: Squash it, dodge, or speak up, so the rest of us can avoid your toxic trash.
Person B: (locks in Annie Jungle) I'm going to enjoy this.
Me: (dodges last sec)
Yet I have no way of reporting this unless I suffer through the game which is almost guaranteed to be a loss and more importantly unenjoyable. I do recognize that dodging is obviously an option, and if infrequent enough, is not overly punishing. It just feels bad that it's the ONLY thing that can be done currently. It would be nice if there was a way to start a vote to abort a lobby and then report negative behavior then and there.
EDIT: Adding this idea from Jo0o up here, so people don't miss it. I like his idea better than mine, and several people have pointed out how a vote could be misused.
Cue the “please start vote kick for X” calls in champ select, not healthy for team cohesion.
Ultimately, I think the best course to take is simply adding a report function in champ select. A five-minute dodge timer isn’t a big deal. Maybe implement dodge LP loss forgiveness if the report results in action, though that might shine more light on the inner workings than Riot is comfortable with...
