Hey guys! I’m a newer player I’ve recently clawed my way up to diamond in a few days. I’ve likely had disproportionately good luck with having solid team compositions to get here quickly. I’d like to think i’m OK-ish myself.

I have immediately noticed that some people literally stand off point and just spam 1 or run around in circles away from nodes. I have seen random afks and I inquired about this to some people and was told they simply do not want to hit legend because of absurd queue times and purposefully tank down and end up taking people down with them?

Have I been unlucky with this? Are these bots? Is this really a thing?

Edit: To clarify I really mean people that are not really doing anything not just apparently bad players.

they think they can win 10 games in a raw if they throw 20 in first place, but they are wrong

I could understand this if the matches were going poorly but often this happens when everything is fine which is why I brought it up in the first place.
