If you are in the mood to play this game and are not so sure of your time, whether you think you are gonna leave soon or you have an active life, GTFO of ranked, NOBODY wants to play with someone who afk's in the first minute or in any time of the game
FrankerX41 votesDUDE WTF noone who plays normals or arams wants an afk either! get out of league!
MeilinII6 votesI mean, this kid has a point..... But it still goes double for ranked.
Ariel the Cruel10 votesIt was bad enough when Riot turned normals draft into a prisoner's island before. Now normals can't hide in team builder either.
So no. It doesn't go double for ranked. It goes equally for all game modes. Quit dumping your rejects on us.
iamthegoatofwar3 votesnah it goes double for ranked still...everything goes double for ranked on things like this.
Rew7111 votesI miss those days where I could go into Twisted Treeline and not have to worry about AFKs or OP champs taking the lead. Its basically easier to kill them (except Illaoi who can dominate every squishy, unmobile champs).
I miss those days that people would play Dominion. It takes forever now to play a 15 minute match (at best). Its a lot funner than Summoner's Rift right now.
I miss when ARAM allowed the whole champ select... wait, we're still trying to tell Riot that this is how ARAM should be.
I miss the other ARAM map. Riot put so much effort into it.
I miss Showdown. It lasted at most 5 minutes and best of all, no team fights. Solos and Duos can have a blast here.
I miss how URF actually "balanced" certain champs so they couldn't spam and be played the most and make games less fun for others. (Like Nidalee and Hecarim)
I miss Team Builder.... If it takes half of the player base from the new mode, there is a good reason why it is. Half the player base probably doesn't like being forced into a random area. If I wanted to play Draft, I would play Draft.
I miss the original Mordekaiser. He had a better chance of being a bottom lane marksman than he does now. More MS, ranged Q, a better E, and a not broken passive or ultimate.
I miss the mana stuff. Specifically, I miss the 
spell.
I miss the contests Riot use to give us, like comics or artwork. We didn't even get a contest like Brazil did for those icons.
I miss how Riot use to give us icons for IP. About 15 so far we could have had for IP. The poro icons for the christmas event are debatable though.
I miss the fact that Ao Shin was going to be a champion last year.
I miss being able to play duo top, all mid, three mid/bot/top, or do whatever. Its too far into the meta, we don't even get a Sandbox mode. Its all basically in "speculation" and we only had a few discussions on it.
I miss feeling like getting champions was easy and would only take about 1 to 2 years... working on year 3 and I'm still not caught up with other players.
That's what I miss...
Ariel the Cruel1 votesUm....... Objection....... Relevance?
MachineCaliber2 votesI mean, this kid has a point..... But it still goes double for ranked.
Agreed.
61939590DEL11 votesAgreed.
Aren't you all kids even this insane no lifer above you ^^^.
When I play rank, people often complain "It's a lagging as hell here" Why the f##k are you in ranked if your experiencing lag constantly. I've never got disconnected from Ranked matches if I even did experience any sort of lag. Idk whats wrong the United States ISP or Americans computers @ this point, but I'm glad I'm n Canada.

Have you considered, even for a moment, that some people play ranked with the sole purpose of ruining the experience for the other players? I think that's a legit thing.

I'm sure your one of those folks that thrive it that area of immature childish behavior?
Sypher The Poro1 votesRegardless, stop talking about no lifers and immature children when the only thing you have contributed to this is acting more childish than the people you called out.
61939590DEL11 votesI don't know why, but something about your attitude made me look you up. I legit yelled out loud when I saw that Riven build.
Regardless, stop talking about no lifers and immature children when the only thing you have contributed to this is acting more childish than the people you called out.
I was calling that "troll" out regardless plz use the reply button next time.
Sypher The Poro1 votesI did use the reply button. Otherwise my post would not be attached to the bottom of yours.

Let me teach you! This is replying correctly to a post.
Sypher The Poro1 votesThat is quoting a post. Notice at the bottom there are 2 buttons "reply" and "quote"?
I tend to only quote people if I want to make a point about only a certain portion of what they said. Otherwise there is just needless text that doesn't need to be there.

ummm some people are so bad they need excuses to make themselves look less bad (Bronze)
Yummines9 votesYeap. Nobody wants to play with an afker.
Either find time to play, or don't play at all. It's that simple.
Dad Says7 votesNobody wants to play with like 90% of the people in low elo. It's an absolute hellhole.
Unstoppable Monk6 votesWhat other times of the day you propose their mom grab them and force them into a shower other than when a league game is going on?
Oksanaandjoy2 votesAgreed except this extends to normals and blinds too (and teambuilder if it ever comes back #bringbackteambuilder!).
It shows such high disrespect for your team mates time if you are leaving any game. If you aren't sure you have time, go play something else. Easy.
SlippySloop2 votesAlright, you've convinced me to go into ranked to see how many losers will actually whine over that first minute. Just as soon as I've leveled for it.
TlT1T1T1T1T1TlT1 votesAlright, you've convinced me to go into ranked to see how many losers will actually whine over that first minute. Just as soon as I've leveled for it.
let me know when you hit 30. You sound like someone I actually want in my games. I'm aiming for the lowest possible score in league.
SlippySloop1 votesYOU ARE TOO LATE! I've already reached Maximus Autismus Rank! We shall not abandon the dream, no one can stop us now!
Dunkrius2g2 votesSimple solution. If he left the game by clicking ESC and went through the 5 second delay to leave or clicks X on the client, If he doesn't log back in say 3 minutes, all his items are sold and all the money is shared between the team and he gets locked out of the game. So if he had 4k, each player gets 1k each.
Ik people will say about those who are lagging too hard or perhaps might be getting ddosed, increase the time limit. How will that work? Who knows but this is an idea.
Sevixys2 votesYesterday I got 5 afks IN A ROW - from which we won 1/5. Bye LP!

If only I could be so lucky.... I keep getting teams that actually want to win. I'm shooting for wood 7!
SnugglePuggle941 votesIf you keep having losing streaks like that, it's best to be smart and take a break before you lose a lot in a row.

Troll for Trump1 votesAsdf I keep crashing and that makes me DC for like the first 2 mins or so, as that's bout how long it takes to DC and RC. Normally it wouldn't be too late, but by the time I'm back in the game, thanks to the new minion spawn time, I'm basically 2 levels behind my opponent, and the whole game is impossible. Even worse if I'm jgling
fatherdarius1 votesTwo my recollection I've 'purposely' left two games. One was a medical incident. The other was when I received a phone call from law enforcement. Luckily, neither were ranked.
They could have been though.
That's when you just be honest. Take the 5 seconds to say: "Medical emergency, cya" or something.
Maximum Morde1 votesI don't mind playing with a few afkers on the enemy team. Harvesting their tears is deliciouss.
Mhihnj1 votesSo when should i start ranked games? My current amount of matches is around 300
The Loveless3 votesThe OP is saying that he's tired of people who can't commit 100% of their expected time to a ranked game. He's talking about people who have babies they constantly need to attend to, or they have school, or it's bedtime, or whatever else happens that can be predicted/expected.
If you know you have something that will pull you away from league soon, then don't screw your team over. They're not going to say "oh okay man you gotta work, that's cool!!! <3<3<3 enjoy and have a good day while we 4v5!!! :-D"
Eclipse13371 votesSo when should i start ranked games? My current amount of matches is around 300
Gonna take this as a legit question.
TlT1T1T1T1T1TlT1 votesGonna take this as a legit question.
- play at least 500 games
- Get 3 rune pages, tank AP AD
- Have knowledge of all the champions or play all of them in normals at least once That's about all I can think of on the spot.
rofl... eff that noise.
HOW TO PREP FOR RANKED:
Eclipse13371 votesrofl... eff that noise.
HOW TO PREP FOR RANKED:
- play about 2000 ARAM games. You'll totally get to play every champ, with every possible role
- queue up for ranked and play your 10 games, without ever setting foot in SR (except bot games, beginner of course)
- you will now be amazing at ranked
- when people bitch about how bad you are doing, just mute them.
HOW COULD I HAVE BEEN SO BLIND?

There's never a "now you're ready" moment. The best thing you can do is understand that you will lose games regardless. To improve yourself, you need to look at a large avenue of factors.
These are core mechanics to understanding how ranked works, and how to get better to eventually climb.
61939590DEL11 votesThere's never a "now you're ready" moment. The best thing you can do is understand that you will lose games regardless. To improve yourself, you need to look at a large avenue of factors.
- **CS **- Did you out CS your opponent? If not. Did you get an early lead and turn it into a win?
- Wards - Did you get ganked alot? Did you ward to try and get an early jump on retreating from the wards?
- **Map awareness **- You placed wards, now did they help you get away from ganks? Or did you continue to die from not noticing they were ganking until he was already in lane?
- Champion Pool - Did you play a champion you've invested time in to and understand how each matchup for you will turn out? Or did you pick into a matchup you didn't understand and lost horribly? Reflect on how it could have gone in your favor. Did you pick a champ you didn't know how to play well? Practice this champion in another game mode to learn matchups and mechanics.
- Item Builds - Each matchup should require you to build different items, or at least skew you away from the same build each game. Did you build properly this game? Would this item have helped you survive the burst damage compared to the item you built?
These are core mechanics to understanding how ranked works, and how to get better to eventually climb.
Those aren't the mechanics why bring out the fundamental principles of this game which that adults clearly understand. I will give you a little studying up on the mechanics of League of legends in order of learning.
etc.There's plenty of more mechanics. but I'm a busy man that needs to achieve other stuff.
So if you have master all of these there's no way for you to be in "Bronze" or "Silver". Here's the fault thing it's a team game so if your adc or support or other laners don't understand the mechanics of this game i's going to be difficult to snowball the enemy when your already behind. Which the vast majority of players are children 12-18.
I do hate babysitting i can't stand be behind in lane & trying to teach children how the play properly that's the ONLY reason why I was in Bronze in my first year.

- Lasting hitting minions ( always have the same amount of minions as the enemy minions or the freeze will not work on your side.
- Proper positioning behind your minions per champion against
- Freezing the Minion Wave our your side of the river( which contributions to more creep score & last hiting
- ** Poke** the minion wave **slowly **while_ poking the enemy_ which this will cause you wave to be frozen on your side still.
- Tanking Minion Aggro more-less your support should be doing this but any lane can do it which will consider any frozen lane to be broken.
- Zoning the Area while making sure you have All of the above master"
- Here's a neat 1 for Jg players, try to step back & forth to avoid the camps to afflict basic damage on you.

There's more to League than a handful of mechanics, what I listed were the most important that got me out of Bronze 3 and into high Silver and pushing into Gold in my first season. It is never about babysitting, it's about determining your own mistakes and learning from them.
The Loveless1 votesExactly. Don't play pvp at all, go watch tv or something.

challenge accepted.
Anyone who wants to AFK, or quit during the match, PLEASE add me. I'm looking to get a full group of people who want to lose every ranked game, and end up in bronze 5 as fast as possible.

I agree. And before those sad folks come on and say this is an elitist attitude, It's not. The decision to AFK in a Ranked game is a negative one for all those involved. Not only does your precious LP tank, but so does the MMR of everyone on that team.
If one simply can not set aside approximately an hour of undisturbed time, they should seriously consider not playing ranked.
But I have a kid and... (That's great. But if you are the only one in your household who can attend to the needs of the child, you shouldn't be playing ranked.) But I have a job and... (Excellent. Keep the economy strong Citizen. However, you shouldn't be playing Ranked at work during your "lunch") But I am "On Call" and... (On Call means you are able to work and perform your role for your organization on a moments notice. The name alone implies that unless you are On Call for a LCS team, you shouldn't be playing Ranked.)
Just an opinion from another Summoner who has an affinity for the AFK'er that lay dormant within all of us.
