I really wish the game had some sort of time limit on when you can join games.

You should be able to set your backfill preferences.
- Never backfill
- Backfill if less than 5 minutes of game has passed
- Backfill as needed

Same issue with TF2, i wished they would fix it for both of the games but like getting that is difficult because they are most worried about balance and not the game-annoying issues.

There’s a glitch where if you backfill at the last instant, it sometimes says VICTORY when it was a defeat. You’ll know if you stay for the screen and read the giant red reminder.

I love when you enter the game and hear “VICTORY” but you see “DEFEAT” across your screen.

Problem with doing that is no one would backfill.
Also, you have never properly backfilled until you’ve backfilled onto the VICTORY screen.

They just need to count how many matches you leave and make you work those off once you have a certain number of left matches more than your completed matches. Say you started 10 matches, but only finished 5. Well for your next 3 matches, you will ONLY backfill. No matches needing a backfiller? Well you wait in the queue for one! Every backfilled match you finish works off one that you left.
EDIT: It would be nice if there was a way to turn off XP gains. Some people leave right before the end so that they don’t get XP. Blizzard encourages that by not allowing people to hide their level/portrait.
Problem is that by making it optional, pretty much 99% of people would just turn it off if it were an option, and then proceed to complain that no one else is willing to backfill their games.
Personally I think they should just implement a small ban before queuing up again. Nothing big, maybe 5 minutes at most and doesn’t even increase. But just enough to inconvenience all the players who leave with 20 seconds remaining just to they can try to hop into the next game fast. And since it’s a small, non-incremental ban, anyone who does need to legitimately get up wouldn’t really be effected.

I’ve suggested something similar as a solution: You can’t join the queue again until the game you left finishes. That way there’s 0 time saved by leaving early. Also, it should enable the “rejoin match” option for non-competitive modes any time the match you left is shorthanded.
