There are few more desperate situations than playing a game of League of Legends and that one of our colleagues leaves when it has not yet finished. Riot Games has always tried to solve this problem, but it has never finished eliminating it completely. Improvements in connections and servers have made it easier to deal with it and there are new measures on the way that promise to increase punishments to separate the offenders from qualifying items.

However, the developer is aware that not everything is sanctioning and that there are some situations in which she is responsible to generate an additional frustration with which players can only deal with abandoning the game. An area of ​​improvement that has considered as one of its great priorities in the future.

The fault assumed by Riot Games at the AFK players

From Riot Games they have ensured that the change of regulations is not the last thing they will do to prevent players from abandoning the games and have focused on three areas of vital improvement so that, when a player decides to leave a confrontation, you can only blame him. In this sense, the developer has indicated that he will investigate how to avoid three of the possible roots of the problem:

The lack of possibilities to overcome a game The inability to withstand the disruptive behavior of other players Connection problems

The objective of the package of measures is, therefore, to avoid absurd situations as being sanctioned by leaving a game of League of Legends after seeing as an ally ran towards the enemy tower several times or not be able to endure the insults Constants of our colleagues. In short, reduce any external stimulus that can make them swell the list of AFK players , which in some regions exceeds 7% of players.

At the moment an objective date has not been established to carry out the changes. However, from Riot Games, they would already be working on it.
