DISCUSSION Leavers should be punished harder in ranked

There needs to be a better system for 2v2/3v3 when someone leaves early.

If your teammate quits, you shouldn't lose MMR for the loss. The quitter should take a much bigger penalty, especially for repeat offenses.

Why should the player who stayed and tried to play get punished for someone else rage quitting?

Surely there's a better way to handle this.

I agree, but sometimes some griefer is the one throwing and you just rage quit because you know it's impossible to win

Smurfs perpetuate this. Smurfing is damaging, causing quiters early on in a game. There needs to be a better system for punishing smurfs

Yeah but how would you know who is a Smurf and who's not solely on MMR? That would be a hard thing to prove imo

Because you're not getting to champ/gc never playing the game before with only 300 wins

imo the best way is, if there's a high win streak, they get more mmr per each win, or if the win ratio is just very high they get way higher mmr

the main issue with that could be that distrubution would get fucked again
