PSA - in 11.3 we added additional LP penalties for AFKing or leaving games. Repeatedly AFKing will ramp this penalty up over time.

With a little more skin in the game, hopefully a potential leaver will think twice about ruining a game for their team.

Leavers never prosper

Wonder if they track average number of afks. It'd be interesting to see the effect these changes have on the number of afkers

I think that’s exactly what they’re doing in this system. I don’t know how long or how much though 🤷🏼‍♂️

This is exactly what we’re doing. The penalty gets worse and lasts longer when you go afk/leave consecutive games. You have to work off your penalty with good behavior.
