Innocent players suffering SR loss due to leavers

Blizzard does not care, if they did they would fix it.
They punish the leaver and screw the others to who stay and try with a loss.
How nice of them.

what if all 11 people left every game you played?

Then you would automatically win every match.

There’s actually no reason any player should suffer SR loss in Competitive due to leavers because a solution exists in other modes in the game - backfill.

Competitive needs backfill

Having a competitive mode without anything in place to help a team recover from a leaver/disconnect is an absolute travesty. Blizzard needs to add backfill to competitive. If someone leaves or disconnects from a match, then someone else can load in to take their place. Have a “reserves bench” system in place for if the disconnected player reconnects (thus allowing for them to avoid the leaver penalty) and give them the option to rejoin the match at the start of a new map.

i dont see why anyone would do it

If a person leaves and doesn’t come back within two minutes (as stated in that countdown timer) then I am leaving and taking the loss because it’s a waste of time to stay in that game.

have smaller teams and force groups…solo queuing with random people is extremely punishing to those actually trying and being a good team mate.

make it like WoW where you have to group with someone BEFORE the match and queue with them…this allows for communication and smaller teams are easier to control

I don’t mind losing if the team did everything they possible could to win. But losing because I’m the only healer and there are 5 dps is just frustratingly annoying. Also losing because someone decides to leave because the game isn’t going there way is also frustrating.

There are ways to make competitive better but they’re not looking to improve the game they’re worried about dumb things like lore and how to stop goats comp.
