@Riot: For /remake - Why is a 4v5 suddenly acceptable once someone dies?

I'm so very confused. What about First Blood means that the game isn't allowed to be end early despite a 4v5? How are the two connected?

I think the whole first blood thing is meant to be a failsafe to prevent people from abusing the system.

I'm more worried about the time it takes for remake to occur. I feel like it's way too situational

Why not allow them to end the game anyways with full penalty?

It's intended to be situational. Rarely will I play a game where someone doesn't connect (the intention behind the new command) and I feel that once /remake is live, rarely will it be used.

what happens if a troll firstbloods and then afks to stop the vote

Then you won't be able to remake. The intention is for players who get disconnected or otherwise can't connect to the game. This is not a solution to intentional feeders or trolls.

So what's stopping the opposing team from abusing the system by feeding a first blood to their opponents the instant the enemy support appears in bot lane without his ADC to ensure their opponents can't deprive them of their 5v4 undeserved free win? What is the team with the absent player supposed to do, just all afk at fountain until 3 minutes is up to ensure that nobody (on EITHER team) dies before they get a chance to /remake? They'll look bloody stupid when their absent teammate reconnects at 2:45 (they'll actually be completely out of the game).

What this stupid "no first blood" requirement does is mandate that you not play the game for 3 minutes- you can't try to get a kill, because if you succeed you've just screwed your entire team and you can't put yourself at risk of dying either because if the opponent finds any success they've just screwed you. It's a completely asinine decision which is going to negate the entire remake system- I bet that only about 1/3 of all 4v5 games will be able to be successfully remade and everyone else will just continue to get fucked over because Riot can't be bothered implementing a proper system.

It should be a timeframe rather than FB. A good or bad invade by the full Team could cancel the possibility to vote.

It's for those games where people never connect. If remakes could happen at any point past first blood, someone on a smurf duoing with a lower tier player can just AFK and not get a loss.
