Simple logic to show how much effect an AFK can have

89 points in ranked, win one more game to promo Score is 9 - 5 in game, advantage in tower and dragon Teammate leaves(ADC), follow by losing the current game, which in term also loses me getting to promo Next four games: Win, lose, Win, lose.
If I was in Promo I would've been in next division and I would not have been demoted cause I've just got to the next division with 0 points. But instead, thanks to that AFK I was stuck in the same division and pretty much gained nothing. I hate how AFK is part of ranked, it's not optional, something you HAVE TO deal with if you want to play the game.

I wonder if it would be alright to boot the afk-er from the game permanently as well as their counterpart as well. So, if you jungler afks, the other team's jungler is automatically kicked out of the game and both players are blocked from entering back into the game; they can queue up again for a new game w/o a penalty for the non-afk player who was kicked out (may be even grant them LP lost by the intentional afk-er) but LP loss for the afk-er along w/ a ban etc on multiple offenses.

This would normalize the teams, punish the afk, and not penalize the sacrificial player too much for their time spent as they would gain a small amount of compensatory LP.
