I play a bit of competitive when i want to tryhard, but mostly quickplay for fun. And yes it is part of a PvP game to sometimes lose and occasionally to make a lose-streak

Like everyone, i don’t like losing especially when we are crushed, but out of respect for my team i try to play until the end.

My problem is people that are afking or just leaving mid-game, making automatically lose a poitn often the game entirely. What a pleasur to play 4v5 for 1 min , 1min30. I am glad that they put a penalty for leavers, but as usual it is so soft that people do not even care and leave after one fight.
It is no more pleasant when they are 5v4 and you are just waiting to win the game.

I hope that blizzard will harshen its penalty system a bit more and I think that people need to learn to stop the game if they are salty and take a break. blizzard could enforce that by hitting leavers harder

    I think they should remove the penalty for leavers who leave before the match starts. Some people don’t like certain maps/game modes and I think you should be allowed to leave those games without penalty before the game starts. They should remove the 5 second timer before leaving in the beginning so people can leave asap and someone can join faster.

    If there’s a way to differentiate between intentional leavers and those who experienced internet issues, I’d like that too.

    I don’t mind the leaver penalty in most other cases bc it’s obnoxious the amount of times a person leaves after losing one round/point which causes the enemy team to just roll us bc we’re down a person—ruining the experience for people who are staying in the lobby trying. After hitting the leaver penalty threshold, they should bring back 75% less BP XP for the next 3-4 games. They should also gain no progression towards challenges and progression system for like 3-4 games.

    They should also make the backfill experience better. Give someone free OW credits even if it’s just like 10-25 just for staying in a backfill game. Give them priority re-queue for any role afterwards, not just the one they initially queued for. Also, they should make it more apparent that someone is joining a backfill game. Nothing’s worse than someone joining your game but they spend 30 seconds in spawn without picking a character bc they think they’re loading up into a new game and have time to chill before the match.
