There is an interesting phenomenon in League of Legends: players who pick the champion “Yasuo” go AFK more often than players who choose any other hero: Players who go for Yasuo go afk almost three times as often as players who go for Yuumi. The curious thing is that the champ who is second most likely to “go afk” is Yasuo’s brother, Yone.
What kind of statistic is that? The site “League of Graphs” has evaluated what the “afk” behavior of players is. They distinguish:
- By region
- by the level at which LoL is played
- according to the champion chosen
What does afk mean? It means away from keyboard, one is no longer at the keyboard, no longer sitting at the computer.
Why is “afk” so bad in LoL? “Going afk” is frowned upon in LoL because it takes yourself out of the game and gives the opposing team a huge advantage, because your team is playing 4-on-5: it’s kind of like a soccer team getting a player sent off with a red.
Players often go afk when they are acting “toxic,” that is, so pissed off at their own team that they say, “Now I’m going to take my revenge on those bums and not do anything anymore” – or when they (or team members) have screwed up the game so badly that they see no way to win anymore.
The phenomenon is also called “ragequitting” – when someone throws down the gauntlet in a rage and just walks away.

AFK brothers top the list of ragequitters
These are the 5 worst champions:
- Yasuo is ahead with 1.14% of all matches
- With 1.02 % follows his brother Yone
- At 1 % is the prude Sett
- Xin Zhao tumbles in fourth with 0.96% of matches played
- Jax is in 5th place with 0.89
What is the reason? Yasuo is a “particularly cool” champion, but difficult to play. Apparently, players who reach for Yasuo tend to tell everyone how incredibly good they are in LoL. Then they take too many risks, die, and retire in a huff.
As Dotesports knows, Yasuo is a character who has to go “all in”, and has few options to retreat from a fight that is going against him.
Yasuo and Yone thrive on winning their lane and then extending the advantage – if that doesn’t work, frustration is likely to set in quickly.
Anyway, the champions that seem to go AFK especially often are the ones that have a risky playstyle and need to go into close combat.
Who is the most well-behaved champion in LoL? Of all things, the “AFK cat” Yuumi goes afk the rarest, only in 0.4% of all matches – Malicious tongues rumor: The cat is constantly AFK, but no one notices.
There are already cases where Yuumi was played “on the side”.

Turkey is the “afk” region – Japanese are the most disciplined in LoL
How does it look by level? Exactly how you’d imagine: The lower the league, the higher the rate of games in which someone goes “afk”:
- In Solo Unranked, at least one player goes afk in 16.5% of all cases.
- On Bronze still in 10.5 of all cases.
- On Diamond only in 2.3% of all matches.
By the way, the worst region is Turkey – here players go AFK almost 4 times more often (11.3%) than in Japan (3.0%). Our server “EUW” is about in the middle with 5.6%.
