How can we help Summoners stuck in a 4v5 ?
Hello Riot! I like many summoners am enjoying climbing the familiar yet new ranked ladder, but unfortunately their is a plague of leavers ruining this experience for many of us! After suffering from a loss due to a leaver in my placement games and then again in my promos and then again as i climb up the ladder, i started to think about this issue in the game, that many of us have been dealing with for a long time. When a summoner leaves the game his team mates are stuck in a 4v5, this leaves them in an almost definite disadvantage and lets be honest a shitty unfair situation. This is without a doubt the WORST EXPERIENCE you will have playing League of Legends, and one we are all unfortunately familiar with. What a disheartening way to lose promos or to be placed low after placement, when you get repeatedly stuck in 4v5s lets be honest.. makes you not want to play this game. So how do we change this ? How can we make Ranked LEague of Legends a more Fun and Fair experience for all? 1 way is to punish those leavers.... which could potential be even more unfair, for the leaver could have experienced a dc, power outage, computer malfunction... etc I suggest a new que to help level the playing field and give Summoners across the Rift a more fun fair way to play ranked!! Introducing the Salvage Que, Salvage que would solo que a summoner to replace a ranked leaver, after the leaver is disconnected from the game from a specific amount of time (maybe 3 min... idk) they would be replaced with the new summoner from the salvage que. The new summoner would directly replace the old, on the same champion same lvl same score same items. Once your salvage que pops u would enter a team builder style display, it would show you your champion you select your masteries and runes and then after 30 sec enter loading screen and eventually the game. Salvage que would not affect a players ranked LP/Division and would help teach players how to come back and play safe in a losing situation! Extra IP a summoner icon or other forms of rewards would be a great way to encourage summoners to use Salvage que and help out your fellow summoners stuck in a 4v5 ( a shitty situation). PLZ RIOT ! Make ranked games a more Fun Fair experience for Summoners across the Rift !! TY For reading my ideas and i would love to hear others opinions and feedback!!
