User blog comment:Shao Sq/Lag indicator?/@comment-8506165-20130614120102

"I am also thinking that perhaps if the player loses control of his/her champion,he should get a huge armour and MR buff just like if he/she is AFK(+1000 armour & +1000 MR) "

They get that anyway if they're disconnected and make it back to the fountain. But it'd be a bad idea to have it constantly on from the second someone disconnects, because it'd just be too open to abuse. Just backdoored an enemy inhibitor turret and know the entire team is headed for you? Running away from a teamfight gone bad? Disconnect from your network briefly, get an impossibly high armor and MR rating while your champ walks back to the nexus, reconnect about 30 seconds later and you're back at your fountain without having given up a kill or spent any time dead.

Not sportsmanlike, no, but people would do it.

As for a lag indicator... eh, I can see it provided it's not too obtrusive, but I don't think it's a priority. I don't think it'd stop people yelling at you if you feed due to bad ping, nor do I think people would stop claiming "lag" as an excuse, seeing as I doubt the indicator would be 100% accurate. Ultimately it just comes down to whether or not you want to believe people are lagging when they say they are.
