A Fix to 4v5 solo q?
4v5 should be:
- Punishment for the leaver.
- The 4 teammates should not be punished if they lose and rewarded extra if they manage to win.
- An option to forfeit the match
Most 4v5’s I’ve noticed are from long queue times and the player akf’s 1 minute into the match and gets kicked which can be fixed with a working ready button. Some 4v5’s are players leaving before a match even starts yet continues to start as a 4v5 which can be fixed by delaying the game from starting. Additionally there are the occasional 4v5’s that result in a disconnect after the match has started which the dishonorable debuff takes care of from discouraging intentional disconnects.
Because there is neither a working ready button or a delay of game the dishonorable debuff is a band aid that does not work which skews a players mmr. The downside is it increases queue times.
A GIVEUP/RESIGN option just like gw1 !
If you are 4v5 you can just resign!
and if you care about lossing ranks/rating in leaderboard than you are definitely kittened because leaderboard means nothing atm.
If you care about leaderboard, you should not be playing with strangers for start.

The same problem could hypothetically happen in tpvp, though I don’t know how you’d protect it from abuse. Like what if you see that your comp in tpvp is just completely rubbish compared to the other team’s and one of your people alt-f4s out to tank the fall?

They could have done SOOO many different things to avoid this 4 v 5 problem …
- Have an actual proper functioning ready button
- Abandon game if it starts 4 v 5 after a set time, everyone back in queue
- If someone leaves early during game, they could freeze the score and wait to find a replacement, then send everyone back to starting area or something when its 5 v 5.
And so on. Since this is has been an issue for god knows how long its safe t o assume it aint getting fixed – ppl just gonna have to deal with it.
