Why so many "your opponent has left the match" in champs?

Question

I get this a lot. Opponent leaves after successful matchmaking, but before they press "ready".

I get this proportionally the most in champs finals. Faced this almost every game, and at time have to get through a few of these before getting to a game.

Followed by champs playoffs. I faced this once every few games.

Almost never in rivals.

But why? Asking out of annoyance and curiosity. What does a player stand to gain by quitting before even going to the match?

@v3ry_n00b Only thing i can think about is that they see youre 11 en and drop out before the game so they dont suffering any points.

i don't get it... at the point where the opponent leaves (during the "ready" screen before even pressing "ready"), i can't see who my opponent is or what his squad is.

on what basis would they decide that they're better off leaving the game at that point?

@v3ry_n00b I get a lot of these but I think it's partly down to the timing of the matchmaking or the ping they get vs you. The more annoying one is people who start games and instantly pause and quit. The community feels 100x more toxic than last year
