Riot needs to address people going AFK all game

Getting someone who is AFK from the start is one of the most frustrating things about this game. The game I had today isn't just a single occurrence. I usually get an AFK/leaver at least once every 8-10 games. It is frustrating to see 3 of your teammates do well and have the potential to win the game but have it taken away by some person who does not have the common courtesy to play the game.

While Riot has a method to kick players who are standing still for too long they have no way to prevent people from using an auto key clicker or taping down a key and being AFK. Not only does this immediately put the team at a disadvantage but it makes forfeiting impossible and none of us get the perk of an extra ult orb due to a player leaving. Riot needs to address this ASAP. The least they could do is give us a vote-kick similar to CSGO.
