EPTJust because you won't win doesn't make the game a waste of time unless you choose to make it one.

And even if you have a chance winning and just focusing on your own game, it's most likely going to be a pain in the ass to play with people who actively try to ruin the game for eachother. | ||

When you're real high up at the top of a division your gains/losses go way down right, and you start getting +-3 or so points per game. However, when you dodge a game, you lose 3 points for the first dodge, and 10 points for the second dodge. So you can actually get to a point where it's more beneficial to lose a game than it is to dodge one. Or rather, if your team is blatantly toxic and you have absolutely no desire to play with them, it's more beneficial to enter the game and then alt+F4 than it is to dodge the game. THAT is some stupid shit. I understand what you're trying to say. But there is another reprecussion to doing that other than losing a game, and lp. Getting banned by leaver buster. Also, going AFK due to people being toxic is quite hypocritical to me. And no I've never had a game where I didn't want to play with those people. It's just a random draw, I don't really care how much people flame eachother as long as I play up to my standards. I've never understood why people get mad over flame online, it's fun to get into a little spat sometimes. | ||

And regardless of messaging, it's been stated by Rioters that dodging does not affect your MMR. The whole point of getting rid of the Elo loss on dodge back in mid-s2 was to get rid of people who dodge down to bronze to stomp noobs, and they wouldn't bring such a mechanism back into the game. | ||

Not wanting to play with people who are being assholes is not really the same thing as getting mad over being flamed. It's good that this doesn't happen to you, but it does happen to other people. Personally, while I like being competitive, I also like to have fun while I play and I refuse to allow the game to put me in a toxic environment. If you think it's hypocritical to go AFK because people are being toxic, then you must agree that it's ridiculous that the current system can encourage you to do this. | ||

Had a pretty insane come of Taric/Soraka/Malz/Veigar/Fiddlesticks. Enemy team couldn't get anywhere near us or they'd get chain cced, even when they tried to come at us 5v5 they couldn't do anything because Fiddlesticks would ult and if anyone got low they'd get healed twice over. Probably one of the stronger ARAM teams I've encountered despite it being all magic damage... | ||

The whole point of getting rid of the Elo loss on dodge back in mid-s2 was to get rid of people who dodge down to bronze to stomp noobs, and they wouldn't bring such a mechanism back into the game. There's also the issue of how often people try to force others to dodge. Like someone picks mid and then the 4th pick who called it locks in Ahri or Anivia or something. Or back when Eve was considered worthless and every troll ever would just pick Revive/TP Evelyn to try and get people to dodge. | ||

Doesn't seem to be any indicator anywhere telling you when you have. It doesn't tell you. The permanent icon is a different one, so it won't change. You need to just change it to the perm one. | ||
