Pls suggest your SOLUTION not rant/punishment for MATCHES with leavers

Competitive Discussion
1

We keep ranting and never suggest a solution . Forget the leavers and focus on the remaining 11 players. Here is my suggestion pls state yours

  • I suggest a random BACKFILL after the 2min.
  • Back filler will NOT LOOSE SR no mater what.
  • Back filler will win 100 CP for Golden Guns no matter what.
  • If the Back filler wins he will win 40 SR if he looses the he will loose Zero SR.
  • We will all BACKFILL randomly once/twice a week
  • Back Filler will have ANY skill set so the System will fetch him instantly like in Arcade.

Thats a WIN-WIN scenario

  1. The team of five will have SOME chance of winning
  2. The team of six will win SR without the penalty that applies for 6vs5
  3. The backfiller will have more golden guns

As for the leaver things can stay as they are for 4 years

I created topic dedicated to that isue with possible solutions, not everyone is just ranting :smiley:

no, because people who play a lot will climb the ranks with 50/50 winrate if you implement such a system.

every backfill is a scenario where you can only gain.
Play a lot, backfill a lot = climb

sr would be skewed and not accurate skill rating anymore

that will be ONE or TWO games PER WEEK what do u mean.?
Dose not make sense

Plus do u have any suggestions of your own , you must have for being here ?

my suggestion, honestly, is to have it stay as is.

Leavers suck but its only occasional and they get penalized.
enemies get leavers too.

its better for the competetive integrity. If you play enough games it evens out.
Maybe a 30 second timeout after dc would be ok, to give the player some time to reconnect without destroying timebank and ult economy.

The thing is most people donā€™t understand the real problem with smurfs and leavers. I also think in the long run they have almost no effect in your rank but they sure as hell make the game boring. This is a freaking game and almost every single player play it to have fun. So instead of being a know it all just admit that itā€™s a problem and maybe one day we can actually have a solution.

Exactly I dont get the other replies that worry about SR manipulation ā€¦ thats total bull ā€¦ we get a guy to play the otherwise BORING game and thats it.

K. Iā€™d leave when my ā€œrandom backfillā€ came up. So would the vast majority of the player base. Iā€™m not playing an already lost match to get competitive points.

Your idea also makes queue times worse for everyone and creates imbalanced matches because itā€™s forced to either pause the match for several minutes or immediately grab whoever is in the queue regardless of whether theyā€™re a good fit for the match or not. There arenā€™t tanks just chillinā€™ in the queue at all MMRs.

Backfill for competitive will not work.

If the match hasnā€™t started, or youā€™re within the 60-second ā€œmatch will endā€ time limit, backfill the player. With this, though, you need to give the option for players to leave. If youā€™ve taken the time to stack, you may not want to be put with a random.

The player that left needs a game time punishment, not a real time.. With the current system, a player with crappy internet, or one that is merely salty, can log on to another account and wait out the real time suspension.

First offense: 20 minutes of playing QP, arcade, or custom matches without leaving or DCing.

Second offense: 60 minutes of playing QP, arcade, or custom matches without leaving or DCing.

Third offense: 180 minutes of playing QP, arcade, or custom matches without leaving or DCing.

Fourth offense: season or 30-day ban from competitive mode, whichever is longer. Obviously, this one is real time.

I dont think players should be punished for leaving video games. A system that punishes 11 (or any number) of players if one leaves is simply a poor mechanic, imo. Backfill is the simplest and most efficient solution outside of custom games and LFG.

Hell yeah, bro! Iā€™ll leave every single game Iā€™m about to lose and hit T500 in a week!

The community will not accept any ideas put forth to solve the solution.

We reject backfill, harsher penalties, etc

How things are is the best we will get. Everyone is convinced every possible alternative is worse

Let it go yall, this conversation has been a dead end for 4 years

we stopped offering solutions after a year of them and the problem continued growing worse and blizz continue to ignore it as always. so either blow off steam for being cheatedā€¦ or finally walk away from the broken system. Dark Days indeed.

Grats on your golden guns? If you can do it anyone can. Games will still be lost. You in a tournament?

19

Yeah, but others will lose SR. I wonā€™t because you Iā€™ll leave and as you said, you shouldnā€™t be punished for leaving a video game. Itā€™s not like I LOST, right?!?

Ill backfill when you leave and win the game for them. They deserve as much of a chance to win as anyone else. Why let troll leavers decide the outcome?
