even after being out for over a year, there is still no help for anyone who has a leaver on their team. you can win, even if you have a leaver, but the other team has to be significantly worse than yours. especially in 3v3 matches, one champion makes a huge difference. I know that people have ideas to help teams that have leavers, and i think people should post their ideas here. (i know this isn't the first post about this ever, no need to remind me). i just got off a streak of 5 games in a row with people leaving, and it sucks. i dont even want to play lol after it because its so irritating.

my best idea is that if someone leaves a game so it is 2v3 or 4v5, and doesn't come back within the next minute or two, the team with less champs should have the option to surrender early.

also, i think that if you win with a team that has less champs than the other team, there should be a significant bonus (leaver must have been gone for a major portion of the game)

post more ideas

just played a 4v4 lol - went solo top as morg(one of ours never connected), twitch came around and ganked alistar and akali pre-6. Multiple times. alistar ragequit, we go on to win the game.

Trist connects at like the last minute citing technical difficulties.. 0 cs and has t2 boots and ie

bots to replace the lost champs?

yea, they would need to do some serious work on legit ai for the champs in order for bots to be a viable fix. It would take a crapload of work and time

too bad LoL's UI sucks else we'd have leaver items/gold like in dota.
