Abandon Penalty for Internet disconnect

I got an abandon penalty for a ranked match where my interent hiccuped for about 3 mintutes when i tried to join back into the game i had already recieved an abondonment penalty but i was still alive in the game because i was playing with a friend. I found it a bit unfair i was forced to leave my team to fend for themselves when i was more than happy to reconnect

  • It's indeed some whacky behaviour, It would of course be more logical to be able to rejoin your team and help them.

    Whilst a penalty does help with making sure the players looks after their issue, it isn't helpful to let them out of the match permanently.

    This system could be adjusted in a certain way so that works properly, that way others can't abuse it.

    We can't really have players just leave for x amount of time and rejoin just barely before they're all killed, otherwise they can just get out scot-free despite being out of the match most of the time.

    IMO, it's probably unintended behaviour, I've seen others encounter this issue too... sucks quite a lot.
