Make it a timer then... If they're gone 30 minutes it won't be an elo loss. XO

People would abuse this hard by making their friends leave to stop them losing Elo.

Even if there were measures to deter that, people would flame about it. EG 'OMG ASHE YOU'RE SOOOOOOO BAD CANCER PLAYER, JUST LEAVE THE GAME SO WE DON'T LOSE ELO FFS'.


Not talking during the game.

I'm talking right as it starts here folks.

The random DC's that occur for people while loading or just simply say hey I don't want to play now, that is what I'm talking about.

If there was a solid fix for that, they would do it. I still don't see that as a fix, "Hey we have a team comp, someone leave!" "WELL GEE WIZZ OK"

If you're not between 1200-1300, then you're not in ELO hell. The place called ELO hell is between 1200-1300, and it's actually the hardest place to climb you,re ELO, since ALL the new players (the real newbs) are. They are less experienced and so they're far from being better than someone with 600 ELO who has some ranked game experience. ELO means nothing before 1400 IMO, since before that, it's really just a matter of luck, weither you,re with of agaisnt the smart group. I'm still waiting to see someone else than me to actually know what a ward is.

Quoted:
below 1000 it is like playing against bots
I've been under 1000 (now sitting at 1180) and trust, most good players in ''ELO hell'', have under 1000 ELO. Sad but true.

+rep me and you'll get good karma, wich means you won't be reincarnated into a rock! Isn't that awesome?

But yes this idea has been discussed more than Pam Anderson's tits in a plastic surgeons office.

Even then, people could abuse that to essentially queue dodge for free if they didn't like their team.

For free? Did Riot really remove the -20 ELO for every dodge you make?

The whole point of his post was about removing Elo penalties when your team has a player not connect. :P

I guess you'd still have to wait until you could surrender though.

IMO, when someone leave, his team should have a 50% ELO loss reduction and 50% more if they (somehow) manage to win. The leaver would get 50% more ELO loss, making it fairer. Caus it's kinda lame to lose 24 ELO caus of a leaver.
