Tips for the developers to make pvp beter
Your point gains are more influenced by your contribution to the match rather than whether or not you win. You don’t lose your point earnings when the match gets autobalanced. People leaving is not an issue because they’re usually replaced pretty quickly and you still fall back on autobalancing if they are not replaced. Conversely, if you earned a large number of points suddenly as the result of a few minutes of imbalance in your favor, then it is not remotely unfair for you to have to face an even team after autobalancing win or lose. There’s just nothing to fix here.

Well, there is a win bonus, albeit minor.
People leaving really can be an issue though, it’s especially annoying in (hot join) tournaments.

I agree that it can be annoying. It can absolutely lead to someone contributing to their own loss. When this happens to me, I try to keep in mind that the only significant down-side to losing a sPVP match is a bruised ego and I’m not leaving empty handed. A bruised ego doesn’t bother me when I remember that.
