Pretty sure there is no way to recover this LP, but this group of 3 in my flex queue game just up and left after we got behind early.

These guys were 100% in a discord as the "Bot" and "Mid" roles swapped champs in pick/ban without telling anyone in chat.

Is there another place to report this clear and intentional dumping of a game besides here or in-game? Screenshot

Also if anyone wants to squad up trying to grind to gold lemme know.

besides here

not here either

LeaveBuster is automated. Even if you don't report them at all, they will trigger LB regardless.

The issue with this is it encourages players to try and make people AFK if a game isn’t going well.

Game not going well? If you make someone (or multiple, or whatever) afk, you don’t lose as much LP! That’s instantly going to make a portion of players start trying to make people who they think are bad AFK.

Assuming you never AFK you have a slightly higher chance of an AFK being on the enemy team than yours. so while it sucks to have an AFK statistically you have likely benefitted from it more than you have suffered unless of course you personally AFK more than the average player

It would have to depend on the AFK time, what it should be classified, like if someone leaves 4 minutes in i would say yeah you either deserve a 2nd remake timer, and or your LP back if you lose, but on the other hand if its 15-20 minutes in you don't get any LP back and you lose it like normal, this way it would possibly not encourage anyone to go AFK on the other hand some players get so pissed due to first blood they leave 4-5 minutes in so its a tough line to walk for something like this, it all depends
