4v5's


ParanoidKami.2867

Recommended Posts

Getting a 4v5 from the start of the game is so annoying. We had a guy who wasn't there, then was for 2 seconds, then was gone again! The entire team just gave up and the other team felt bad for us since we've all been through this.

Some of us danced, lay down, or some just jumped on one spot the entire time. We even had 1v1's going on in the back. Everyone agreed that it was just a giant waste of time and if we did fight it would just be depressing being outnumbered everywhere and not standing a chance.

 

Please fix.

They need to implement an algorithm to determine when skill-rating-loss should _not_ be awarded as opposed to the simple parameter we have now (someone out of the match for 90 seconds or whatever). I personally couldn't come up with one without some timely consideration and theory-crafting, but it seriously can't be that hard. I'm not saying the current idea isn't good; I'm saying there needs to be more to it than what it currently quantifies (a mere DC period).

 

I mean you get these DCs and then the person comes back within the allotted "grace period" and your team is too snowballed to come back from that disadvantage, but the DCer came back within said period so you all lose skill rating anyway. Surely that can be quantified better to offer them that grace period so they don't get dishonor or automatically minus-skill-rating but also if they come back within that period and the team is still overly kittened that the team doesn't lose minus-skill-rating.

 

For example, you could do a cap-check (enemy team holds 2, 1 is neutral) and (_not_ or) point-check (100-point lead) to override that grace period from kittening everyone over on the DCer's team when said DCer comes back within that grace period. These parameters could also be more strict or lenient depending on the map since certain maps like Legacy of the Foefire are easier to keep snowballing and certain maps like Forest of Niflhel and Temple of the Silent Storm allow for faster point-gain.

 

It's just really disheartening when there's so many things that can be done to make the system better with a little bit of math and consideration yet they aren't done.

Game needs a surrender vote!

LoL added a special surrender vote at 4 minutes exactly for these cases (you usually can only surrender past 20 minutes).
