A way to better balance Ranked matches...

Abbiegale··1 votes·720 views

Riot - Please add a mechanic that would close a ranked game as a draw under the following situation. 1 - when a player leaves, whether they dc or afk or rage quit, a timer would start of between 3 -5 minutes. 2 - if that player does not reconnect by the end of that timer, the game would be ended as a draw wherein no one wins or loses, no points won or lost 3 - i know that you currently have a mechanic that notices when someone goes afk, and you have one that knows when someone has dc'd or left the game ... so it should be relatively simple to add a time and close the game so people on the offenders team and not negatively effected.

i had 3 ranked matches on 2/27 where 1 player on my team left in the 1st 5 minutes... in speaking with several friends and other players, i have found that this is happening often. i understand that you are banning these offenders.... but what about those of us they screwed over!

please consider this. Thank you.

I doubt something like this will happen, because it would be abusable in premades, as just one player needs to go afk to save the LP of his teammates.

I understand, and thank you for commenting. I hadn't thought of this, but I believe this could be avoided if Riot also added a limited ban to all "premade" members - like 24 hour ban. That would help prevent folks doing this on purpose.

what do you think?

Someone always posts this. Its not good enough of an excuse to not fix losing a game in ranked because of afks and dcs. Also the whole "the enemy team has the same chances at having a dc" is total bs. I don't want ranked play to be based on whether or not the dc is on my team or the enemies.
