Don't you love low priority queue?!

It's awesome when I never dodge or leave games, but the one time my internet decides to shutdown when I'm in champ select I get a leaver buster and get placed in low priority queue and have to wait 20 minutes to queue for 5 games. I have to wait a total of 100 minutes in order to play 5 games. That's really irritating when you have 4 other people waiting on you. There's no use in giving people longer wait times to play a game if they leave once. Give a different penalty. Maybe give a chat ban for leavers, or a certain amount of games vs bots, or something other than waiting to play. It doesn't change anything for anyone when you have to wait longer. People want to play the game, that's why they play in the first place.

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure the fact that you got dinged for 5 games means that you've had problems before. Last time I had internet issues and couldn't connect to a ranked game, I had to wait for one game.

You're required to dodge about 5 or more games to be reaching the 20 minute penalty. Get a better wifi.

You can't get low priotrity queue for dodging in champion select. You had to have dodged a match, and even then you do not get the full 20 minute wait time per match until it is your 4th time afking in games. I know because I had got up to the 20 minute timer myself and even then I got the 20 minute LPQ 5 times before i finally decided I shouldnt play league while my parents were watching netflix. I've had over 400 consecutive games without incident and so my status has improved.

If you got a 20 minute wait time after dodging champion select, then it is the one time wait that expires after 20 minutes whether you are in queue for that time or not. If you actually got leaverbuster for a dodge in champion select then send a ticket to riot.

Low priority queue isn't given for dodging champion select. Your story doesn't add up.
