I think that the recent change which normalizes rank points gain for entire team is a good one. However, there is one problem which I got aware of recently. There are now some leechers who get into the match, score 10 points for caping close point and then go AFK for the rest of the match. Their team will most likely loose, but they will still get their rank/glory reward for participation. And an entire batch for just one node cap. I am speaking about solo queue matches. Hotjoin is a total mess anyway, always was and probably always will. However tPvP should be as balanced as possible, and leeching starts to be another problem here. Not as bad as games starting with 4v5 but having a leecher in your team is more or less a same thing.

One of the possible solutions would be to not give rewards for loosing team but I am fairly cofident that this would be too harsh. I would not like to have such a system and I think most other players wouldnt as well.

What else can be done about this, if anything? Maybe some sort of report option? But if someone gets enough reports to trigger the system, what then?
