First off I deleted his name to follow guidelines, avoiding name calling and such on him.

This was my 3rd match to get promoted, we clearly lost after this. I was 1win and 1loss. Me and Alcoma are usually generous in ranked queues. This guy just pissed Alcoma off and he wanted mid after supporting bot last game. He was seated higher and chose mid, this guy was an ass about it and locked in a mid champion after Alcoma already had locked in. We got him to go bot in the match but he decides to feed bot lane. Ruining the match and giving us no chance to recover. Right at twenty minutes he just kept trying to surrender. Then in the after chat he was just calling us garbage team. My duo partner and another player on my team reported him over this.

I'm sure a lot of people in elo hell have to deal with this. My first question because I am not sure about is, Do you lose more LP for surrendering in a match? I was told that you do but that just seems silly and just really a time waster, idk. Next is, why must I get punished for queue skipping a match like this and losing LP? Would it of been better for queue skipping it, is it less LP loss? Though I also get banned for some time since it's ranked queue. I understand why there is a punishment system there. Just so you don't waste peoples time and I'm sure there is a few other things. Though I feel like this punishment system is a little harsh. It wasn't because I was trolling or because I had to leave. I was going to queue skip because I had to play with a rude guy like this, and it was clear that our team communication just wasn't there.

Sorry for the long rant, I got pretty salty about this. He even reported me for bad language because I had gotten pretty rude towards him in chat. I haven't been reported for it before(from what I know), but I might even get banned over that. Hope some people can answer my questions, thanks.

First get rid of all IGN's except your own.

Second, if you dodge one game you only lose 3 LP and its a 5 min wait. No sense in losing more LP than you have to

Third, a vote to kick option gets thrown here a lot. Riot has come out and said they won't do it because of the potential abuse that it can cause. Especially with dynamic que coming up soon (trademark) you can play ranked with more than 2 people.

Fourth, the new dynamic que should solve a lot of these problems.

Finally, I how much LP you gain/lose is depended a little on how long the games go. I don't have any statistics to back this up, this is just what I have noticed from my experience. We are talking like maybe 5-7 LP difference between /ff and finishing out the game. Again this is just my experience so take that with a grain of salt.
