I once had an enemy Syndra who DC'ed in the middle of a massive minion wave. I thought she was probably going to die to minions and her team didn't say anything in chat, so I picked off the kill. Deaths mostly put you behind because your lane opponent gets free farm and XP while you're dead, so killing a DC'ed enemy doesn't actually swing the lane much.
