Losing LP for afks and DC's.

Hey all, Wanted to just come on here and say that I am fed up with my teammates afking and leaving games, not being penalize or anything. They just want to open and go next (High Plat low Diamond elo). I personally try the best I can to win every game but am being preventing from climbing because of this. I SHOULD NOT lose my own LP if someone decides to ruin my game that's SO unfair and there needs to be a fix where you lose like hardly any LP or the person who afksd loses way more or is automatically demoted a tier. I know its a really hard issue to fix but it should be looked into as the whole season has been determined by it.

And yes I get life happens, but I'm more so talking about people tilting and just leaving base off the fact they got stomped or something happens they don't like so they get to choose where we win or lose just because they don't want to play any more it just ruins the experience of the game.

If anyone has ideas or wants to chat about this feel free to leave a note.

Thanks, Airzu. Ekko

Sure! Please throw out an idea on how to punish these people without screwing with LP. This is the part that people don't understand - as soon as you mess with LP in ways other than winning or losing the game, you pollute individual ranks and ladders as a whole.

where you lose like hardly any LP

But you lost the match. This is unfair to the people who actually won. Someone has to gain LP and someone has to lose LP or you pollute the ladder rankings.

or the person who afksd loses way more or is automatically demoted a tier

Automatically demoted a tier? That pollutes the ladder. Loses way more? Pollutes that person's individual rank and isn't fair to the people they get matched with.

These ideas have been thrown around a thousand times. You're going to have to do better.
