My team mates left me in the storm and had no intentions of coming back as they were pinging places further from my position. I left the match now i am banned.. thats * *.. How can i be banned when they abandoned me??

Waiting to die after being knocked then waiting for you respawn to time out is basically a 5 min penalty for playing with people who abandon you.. thats b.s.Actually i got 10 mins because my game crashed and i got a 5min a couple of weeks ago.Being impatient has absolutely EVERYTHING to do with your issue.If you can not wait at least 1 (one !) minute until you leave, you will wait much longer due to the upcoming penalty.Just accept it and don't discuss!"Waiting to die after being knocked then waiting for you respawn to time out is basically a 5 min penalty" -Yeah, try that a few times and do the math again. You will be suprised.Penalties were needed, now we have them and hopefully they stay forever.You have the choice to wait for your mates, not play with randoms or not play at all - so simple!

As the random in 99% of the games I play, I have to say I make it a point to stick with the other squads. If they ping someplace and for whatever reason change location without me noticing, I will trek to where they are immediately, even if it means not looting much to get there. Running solo is death in this game if you bump into another squad. Awareness of your squad is survival. Even if they are not that good it is better to have that support than nothing at all.Also in ranked, I always will wait around. I have had some games where I didn't think my squad was going to get me and they were able to get in and grab my banner in the nick of time and spawn me back into the game. If you were late game and the circle would melt them if they attempted to get you because you were too deep into it because you didn't keep close to them. As the random that is on you. Just wait the 90 seconds or whatever, take it as a learning experience and move on. Or take the penalty. WhateverSeems like if you can't quite adjust your play style to fit this mode you need to drop with friends in a pre-made squad or stick with regular. The agitating thing about these posts is that it is always everyone else's fault and the penalty is not just. The penalty is working as intended.

For me it is different. I got into a match, found out i am alone, and because i didnt want to lower my k/d, i left. And here i am, being punished for ten minuts because somebody decide to not even show up.

@JjumpingJjack Yes, penalties are needed, but they should at least tweak them a bit.

@grudy159 lol, same here, I get solo queued a lot in ranked! And they don't give me loss forgiveness for not giving me a teammate! So onetime I quit because I didn't wanna lose RP, but got penalized, now I just close the application when I get solo queued. I hate doing that, but I hate the fact that Apex won't give me teammates 90% of the time even more than I hate quitting like that. Apex, if you're gonna solo queue people, you need to give them the amount of RP they would've lost for every teammate that you don't give them (so in gold or silver or whatever rank has a 24 RP entry fee, you give them 24 RP for every teammate that isn't there, that would be fair).

Why do I get banned when my team abandons me??

@Babbediboopi dude you are talking like everyone in ranked is a perfect teammate... that is just not true i got banned while i knocked 2 people on the train and fell off the train and then i got knocked 2 of my teammates were just looting while they could come and save me they just need to hit the last guy that is reviving.... and ofc i see there is no intention to come for me so i leave to play another game and then boom you are banned.... so yea people are dumb and they dont care about the game they care just about loot and kills...

Quite the opposite. The "perfect teammate" is subjective; the kind of players that I prefer to play with is probably totally different from your perfect teammate. Some players prefer to avoid fights and sneak their way to RP gain, so who am I to tell them that they must go for my banner if I die far away from them? Some players play only for kills, also in ranked so who am I to tell them that they must sneak their way to RP gain etc etc.
All I am saying is that people should be aware of this when choosing to play with random teammates.
