There Should Be A Report Option For "Open Mid" in NA
The only time "open mid" is a valid option is when your whole team agrees on this, and usually only in high elo where they know how to end a game. The moment you take on the "open mid" attitude YOU ARE THE REASON WE LOST. Not the kill difference, not the gold difference, not the objectives, etc because we haven't lost yet and throws CAN and often DO happen (specifically at Low ELO which is why I brought it up at the beginning). Once you open mid, that is when we actually lose and it is 100% your fault at that point. If your team says no to "open mid" you need to keep playing, the same way you need to keep playing if the Surrender vote fails.
The reason I think it needs to be a separate Report option is because it can be hard to detect I feel. Even if they say in chat "open mid" it may not be obvious that they aren't trying to win. They may go up 30-40 CS or get a kill or two, but at the end of that day when the enemy wants to take our Nexus the will have made no moves to stop them. It is a bit different than feeding or AFKing, as they tend to continue playing just not in a manner that helps you win.
There is a "Giving up" option but like I said it can be hard to tell when someone is actually giving up, so I think "Open Mid" should be added to that or it should be its own option.
Please don't give me reasons or explanations for why "open mid" is valid because its irrelevant to my post. I specified that I am talking about 1 or 2 individuals on the team who have taken on this attitude when the rest of the team wants to keep trying. "Open Mid" is something the whole team needs to agree on, because if not everyone does agree and you do it anyways, at that point you are intentionally losing the game. There are times when I have agreed to "Open Mid" because the game was over before 20 minutes, but these are super rare and almost always complete stomps where the enemy would have won in the next 5 minutes anyways.
A little backstory here for why I bring this up, in the last 6 ranked games I played yesterday, 3 people wanted to "Open Mid" and they basically stopped trying to win ( 1 in one game and 2 in another). I won the first time, my team did not want to "Open Mid" with this person and we let them do their thing while we won the game. The second time however there were 2 people who stopped trying, one of them was our most fed carry. Nothing we could do at that point but lose. It is just frustrating because if these people had tried we possibly could have won. I don't particularly care about losing if we just plain and simple got outplayed and beat, but when my team is the reason we lose it is pretty frustrating.
