I am getting at least 2 leavers everyday in comp. In both teams I see a lot of leavers. I feel bad for the other team too when their teammate leaves. People just leave because they dont mind their ranks and their penalties. Meanwhile I lost so many games or won a game which I did not deserve to win because people keep leaving for no reason at all.
Let me give you an example. We are winning a game in junkertown. We have an ult advantage and time is with us. But our Moira decides to leave the game. And the sad part is we almost won the 4v5. The round was decided by a 1v1 at the point. If this guy did not leave he could have healed that guy or at least killed the enemy Reaper on point which had 1hp. I can not belive this counts a defeat for me and I lose mmr for this.
They need to take Competitive points from people for a handful of games after leaving a match.
A lot of players just play comp for the wins and the Competitive points for golden weapons, if it looks like a loss they see it as time wasted.
if you take 1 match, then yes. Maybe. You won’t lose much if any MMR losing with a leaver, so it doesn’t actually have any real impact… unless, it is repeatedly happening over a large volume of games. At that point, you should stop playing ranked till it is fixed.
if you rate your progression over a season like you should, it makes little to no difference.
People playing QP are playing to experience the game without the badges, or have a more chill time, or practice stuff and so on. People constantly coming and going kills the match.
Again. Everything looks terrible without context. You need to add some context and it doesn’t seem so bad.
We do. I like to form mine from my experiences and what is published about the game.
Better than just making stuff up and then claiming everything is either the worst thing or best thing ever, which seems to have become the thing to do these days.
Some days, my placements can have 2/3 leavers in them.
It’s really bad how common it is. Unsure why they haven’t looked towards other competitive games on how to deal with leavers.
Keep posting your problems when they occur on these forums, eventually, hopefully, change will come around.
