Ranked: How to help your team if you are down and won't get up again.

Leave the game for an abandoned match penalty for you, but your team gets lost forgiveness.

This works best if you are level IV in a rank, because you have tier protection too (which, if they got rid of that, would cause all sorts of problems). But if you don't want your team to die getting you in an impossible situation, and you want to help them out, abandon your game.

Now if you want to SCREW your team over, then you dive off the edge of the map, or run headlong into gunfire, or whatever, because then you'll become a box and maybe they'll try to get you.  Also, they won't get loss forgiveness and you won't lose abandon points.

Just some food for thought the way the ranking system works right now.  It's perfect, right?

  • @KelRiever as far as I know, don't do this, you'll get banned eventually....

    Preds used to do this and they got their account banned, a bunch of 'em.
  • Possibly.  At the same time, who’s fault really is it that you can do this?

    im going to say Respawn isn’t 0% accountable…

  • I'd much rather stay spectating the game for placement points.  i really like your consideration of others but I don't think this is the way to go.  Simply use your mic and tell your team to play their lives and leave you.  I also kinda think it's their own fault if they make that decision.  They need to learn to properly prioritize for ranked play somehow.
