Losing Rank when teammattes leave

I am probably not the only one who thinks that when you loose a match because u had a salty teammate then have “favoured but you lost” as the reason you ranked down a division. You shouldnt loose that much rank if 1 or all your team left. I have gone down from masters 5 to plat 1 from having some unlucky games of 6 leavers in a row. This is rediculous and needs to be sorted. Any other opinions?

I think they could add a modifier when there is a leaver. But I’m not personally fussed either way.

As for the normal modifiers, they are set when the lobby is built. So nothing that happens in the match matters on that front.

Fair enough. I guess they cant tell when someone is gonna leave. It is a pain in the butt tho. Thanks for the input.

Agree. Leavers are always annoying. But the worst thing you can do is worry about it, or constantly complain about them.

Just another hurdle in the road to victory.

The problem is that stuck teams could abuse that! When a game doenst go well for them someone leaves and didnt lose much of sr . Should be like if you are on the same group you lose normal percentage but if you are solo and some1 leaves you could be sr protected! Just an opinion.

Not a bad idea.

They have the tools to do it as they’ve already said “wide groups” next season won’t be gaining or losing as much in games.

Exactly what I mentioned in the past.

That shouldn’t be a problem since it would be premade teams. So, lower the rank for leavers in premades, and don’t lower the rank as much for solo players in pugs that get leaving teammates.

I think it’s a great idea, because it’s so annoying to have your rank lowered because of someone else actions.

With the new % and break down it would be nice to see if you do experience a leaver, and match still goes on as 4v5 is and can still be won. You get an increase/decrease depending on the situation
