Really wish players would stop soft inting because they're not scared of demoting.

This is the gold 5 problem, where players like to literally troll in ranked because they're gold 5 with 4 LP or some shit. In my previous case, I had a MF ADC who doesn't have a single game of MF in her belt across 5 fucking seasons of playing the game, goes 3/13 and decides to leave the game because "I'm not getting demoted anyways so whatever".

This is literally borderline intentionally feeding, I don't care how you look at it. She legitimately went into ranked knowing she has absolutely no experience with the champion and puts everyone elses time and LP at risk because she isn't scared of demoting. I don't fucking understand how this is allowed by any means of fucking reasonable equation.

That is why players like Hash SHOULD be banned for soft inting.

Firsttiming in ranked is not advisable, but should not ever be against the rules.

Singlehandedly deciding that the game is over should be punished by more than leaverbuster though, but we can't reliably detect it.

Unless it is recent games i do not think you can see normal games with the champion. Thus, they have hundreds of games played in normals without it showing up to you because its not in ranked. Also they could play her on another account.

Though that does not seem to be entirely the case here, they were trolling, and that was determined after they left. It is very obvious to this. People keep saying "soft inting" and refering to like they continuously call people white knights or whatever else. It often is used horribly wrong.

They potentially could just be being outplayed early then stat checked while getting no help the entire game, and having the enemy throw the game simply to set that one person back and tilt them and make their team rage at them for "being useless" which the team then does and sets them back even more by taking all the farm they potentially could have used, saying "you are useless anyways". So this new fad of people saying "soft inting" in an attempt to "justifiably" flame is just as stupid as every other thing people come up with.

They were trolling. They purposefully went out of their way to make the game harder or more annoying.
