This would avoid alot of the people who randomly have some issues with their client and cant connect to the game at all.

However the main point of the thread is the safe to leave thing, in dota 2 if within the first minutes of the game a person is their dced or flagged as afk the game becomes safe to leave and has no matchmaking impact meaning no win or loss.

Right now in league if one person is afk at the start you are faced with a 4v5 with almost no chance of winning (because unless the matchmaking system screwed up hard ) you won't win period, with the safe to leave feature if the person doesn't reconnect at all you can simply leave the game without having to waste pointless 20minutes in a lost game, not only you are wasting your time but the enemy is also losing theirs as you have nothing to learn or fun beating an enemy with no chance to win.

Pls riot.

because it would snowballing leaving even more. i dont want my games to not be counted just cause 1 idiot decided to afk for 5 mins.
what if the dude reconnects after 7 mins and then he finds out the game is over.

1. duo with friends smurf
2. game not going well - make smurf leave
3. Safe to leave
4. Main doesnt lose elo

but then again, if your loss is inevitable because of a leaver, i guess this system would be good

It would only be safe to leave in the first minutes of the game if its already late game or mid game the game would still go on regardless of afking or not.

If you afk for 7 whole minutes at the start you already lost your lane and you wont get back into the game unless your team is steamrolling the other like I said the matchmaking system screwed up.

Again this is too avoid 4v5 where people dont connect at all.

For justice i should say, dota has no surrender feature. so how it works. In lol you can surrender. It is team decision. While in dota even if team has chance one leaves, then other and so on. In lol you have choice - if team think they can win game continues reagardles of your personal wish. Thoug there 20 min limitation still.
