It's mostly been said before - shit is ridiculous.

I grasp the need to disincentivize ragequitting halfway into a losing game. That's annoying as hell both for teammates who still want to turn it around and for opponents who want to play out the victory. The fact that LoL gives IP/XP even for losing and none for leaving already does a lot for that, though.

My own objection to this "leaver buster" system is that it essentially makes me a hostage to terrible or abusive teammates. I've had an awful experience so far trying to practice with tank or support characters and getting burned almost every single game by scrubs who only play vs. AI so they can all solo carries like gloryhound dipshits in exactly the way that would get them curbstomped in a competitive game. I guess if I want to practice I'm supposed to dive headfirst into PvP instead?

So I'm now suspended for leaving. No shit I left - leaving is an entirely reasonable response to any social situation where someone sees fit to call me a "meta faggot" for asking them to coordinate with me as a teammate.
