The biggest among them is the ability to surrender.\u00a0 If you see a game going down the drain for whatever reason\u2014be it a poorly drafted team comp, AFK teammate, or a one-sided affair\u2014you may be asking how you can forfeit the match and move on to the next one. Can you forfeit in LoL Arena? Where the 2v2v2v2 game mode differs heavily from traditional League game modes on Summoner\u2019s Rift and the Howling Abyss is in the ability to surrender. In League\u2019s Arena mode, you cannot surrender; typing \/ff into the chat will not make a prompt available for you and your teammate, and you will not be allowed to forfeit the game and move on.\u00a0 What happens if your teammate goes AFK in LoL Arena? Maybe the worst feeling in League\u2019s new Arena mode is when a player on your team of two goes AFK and you\u2019re stuck to face the music by yourself. Fighting three other teams of two on your own can be a defeating experience both literally and mentally, since it\u2019s extremely difficult to mount a comeback solo. Related: The most fun and most broken combos to try in LoL\u2019s new Arena mode Plus, since there is no option to surrender in Arena, you\u2019ll have to continue to play through the game until you get knocked out (or pull off a miraculous victory).\u00a0\u00a0Playing on your own could be a difficult challenge, but keep in mind that with the right combination of augments, items, and champion, you might be able to put up a fight, even in a one-vs-two scenario. Thankfully, Arena games only last about 10 to 15 minutes each, so if you\u2019re stuck in a game with no way out, it won\u2019t be long until you\u2019re able to queue up into the next one.\u00a0","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/League-of-Legends-7.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/914084"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1865"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=914084"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/914084\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":914102,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/914084\/revisions\/914102"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/902363"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=914084"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=914084"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=914084"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=914084"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=914084"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=914084"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=914084"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
