A game isn't fair if someone afk's/dc's

Finn Teh Human··3 votes·593 views

I don't care what point in time someone afk'd or dc'd, it's still not fair. I just lost a game because our top laner at first refused to group, even though each lane was ahead and we could have ended. Fast forward 13 minutes and the top laner still refuses to group and want's to 1v5 the enemy team has made a comeback. A short while later we're able to open 2 inhibitors while our top finally saw we needed to group. Well after the enemy team got baron because our top laner decided to go into the enemy jungle he went afk. We got the enemy team down to 1 nexus turret but were unable to end because again, we lost our top laner. Now you tell me which team actually deserved to win. The team that worked together for 15 minutes after the top laner afk'd and nearly ended a 4v5, or the team that had the ability to get kills and farm because one person didn't want to end. At least make it so we lose less LP. Nothing is more depressing than games like that.

omg. i'm giving you an upvote for being innocent and still idealistically wanting fairness in league

i'm sure someone will come along soon and mansplain to you how your team has less of a chance over all of getting an afk/dc this is done through the magic of riot maths.

I get a lot more afk's on my side than other side. Math wise I'm at probably 70/30. It sucks and it should automatically (after 3 minutes) kick everyone from the game without penalty so we can actually play a 5v5.

Nope. No.....no......no......you don't understand. The magic of Riot Maths doesn't require real world variables. It's all computed magically, free of reality's shackles.

Also keep in mind, riot almost NEVER punishes the very slightly smarter cheats which are not actually AFK, just sitting at base until the very end, when they magically "reconnect" to the game and at the end game stats look like they were there the entire time. Although this also happens occasionally when their bot program crashes. This also creates the connected-disconnected-connected-disconnected effect, if the cheater set their options to automatically reconnect after crash.

Its no different than having a feeder on your team.

I'd rather have a feeder. At least a feeder (generally) will still group, still try to help, still attempt to make a comeback.
