Hello everyone, today I was playing a competitive match (placements) and for some reason my Internet connection was lost, I immideately restarted my modem and reconnected to the game and we won. And at the end of the game I saw that the game was counted as a LOSS for my placements. So blizzard is basically saying don’t bother connecting back and try to win the game if you’ve lost your connection ? Just wow. Compared to other games, you are really dealing with this problem the worst way possible.

The thing is, Overwatch has always had a problem of players leaving games or disconnecting on purpose to cause disruption to the rest of the players, so there needs to be some kind of harsh punishment.
No one knows if you innocently disconnected or did it on purpose (as it can’t be proven by Blizz), but if it rarely happens to you then you have nothing to worry about. It’s also only Placement matches, it’s not really a big deal in the end.
