The cancellation of a competitive match due to a player leaving is absurd. I have lost up to 200 points due to the unforgiving nature of this mechanism. Why not just allow more time for players to reconnect? Every single time I have left the game it’s because I lost conection, not because I voluntarily left the game. And every time I get deducted 50pts and get a 10min ban. It just doesn’t make any sense. Why not have a 30s/1min timer for the dc’er to reconnect?
if a ranked match is cancelled the only way you would get 50pts deducted and a temp ban is if you were the one who left…
Which he said he did… leave, but he did leave because of losing his internet connection for a second.

You have to live with that though Johndoe. I also lost 100 points 2 weeks ago because I had connection issues.
They can’t really tell the difference between someone genuine losing their connection or someone just rage pulling a network cable/connection.
For now just play QP and if your connection seems stable join competitive. That’s what I do also.
Yeah my connection is fine most of the time. It’s just sometimes, randomly, I get dc’ed for a sec and boom -50pts. I guess there’s nothing really I can do about it apart from getting the points back by playing
They dont care dude… they cant even fix issue with ppl leaving and the rest of the team suffering because of it… why do i have to lose sr because some one left… makes no sense. Bur blizz just does not care.
A. Fix your internet, it’s clearly on you for not fixing this issue
B. Blizzard does not take technical malfunctions into account, they can’t detect this.
You can’t enforce player behaviour.
If you make players with a leaver lose less SR then this can be abused.
Try seeing it from multiple viewpoints instead of one.
“Most of the time”
It still happens, i’d recommend you try looking further into the issue.
It can also be related to a stressed ISP due to the COVID-19 situation.
OK, even if I fix my internet, why can’t you allow more time for reconnection?
Even better, how about allowing reconnections in the first place? 20s, 30s? Enough time for someone who dc’ed unintentionally to reconnect?
My problem is with the cancellation mechanism, the fact that the match gets cancelled immediately after some dc’s, accidentally or not.
Even if I fix my internet, other people expèrience the same frustration as me. I cannot be the only one that has this problem.
Perhaps you should look into it, as it’s clearly your game, your playerbase and on you?
Then they should make sure their issues are fixed.
Don’t ask me why reconnections in the start aren’t allowed, i don’t work for Blizzard.
