I just had a game that was terrible from the get go, our bot fed which of course means the game was already lost (thanks balance team), but mid and top (me) also lost lanes so it was pretty much definitely game over. However my premade (Kha jungle) had an argument with the enemy support who was flaming and spamming in /all chat during the entire game, anyway my friend said he will "give him 10 deaths" which besides enemy team flaming him, prompted them to decide to not end the game until they killed my friend exactly 10 times. Since we understood what was going on we asked our team to surrender or at least let the enemy end, but they refused (I think they were low level or newbies since they didn't seem to understand what was going on). Anyway in the end we had a situation where the enemy are holding us in base, trying to kill Kha 10 times and my team refuses to surrender and fights the minions back over and over and over. What the hell do I even do then? I just had 20 minutes of pure hell. I guess I should just take the leaverbuster , but even then I can't start a new game.

"holding a game hostage" isn't a reportable offence. or even a thing.

Leave the game but do not close the client. Report them after the game ends and hope for the best.

Or

Close the client. Email support.

Or

Pretend like you are trying and wait for the game to end.

(Sorry, there are no good options. That is why it is called "taken hostage".)

It wont be fixed because Riot would rather ban you for posting about this rather than do actual player behavior management.

The game is lost solely because of this mentality. ADC's are worthless unless they have 6 items. What are: item 3047 item 3076 item 3082 Tough shit

I get where you're coming from but if your team didn't want to surrender you can't essentially prevent them from being allowed to play the game.

On another note though -- if they were in your base and had knocked out at least one inhib to get there how on earth were the super minions not destroying your nexus? The only way would've been for your team to cooperate with them in order to push them back.

if your team doesn't surrender it's your teams fault.

else you can just scale until you have 4-5 items and turn it around.

I would have spent the time trying out builds with the sole purpose of bypassing their line.

Build for maximum movement speed, then sprint toward them and flash/ghost over them.
trade my items in for zz'rot and Banner of command just to be a little annoying
buy a support item (or sell your old one and get a new one) and try to complete the 'quest' before the game is over
swap out all my tank items for AD or AP items and test out just how much damage I can do
try to cc the enemies into the fountain
buy and try to bait them to attacking you in the foutain
try to break the line, and if successful run suicide missions into their towers. EVENTUALLY, you'll break it down.

Alternately, have EVERYONE on your team purchase support items and make your only objective the protection of Kha'Zix. They want to kill him? Make 'em earn it.

When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade. Make a Tom Collins.
