Thanks for the thoughts and posts everyone!

It sounds like leaving a match after you've already lost is mainly a way to get to the next fight faster, though dropping mid-match is definitely a different story altogether.

What types of leaver penalties have you seen in other games that you think would be a good fit here?

What kinds of sanctions would feel appropriate for leavers here, matchmaking lock outs, suspensions, bans?

Depends really... I think right now we have a lot of players on Wi-Fi with God awful connections. I shouldn't be penalized because I don't want struggle through a broken match.. now with that being said ppl who quit in ranked should have a cool down penalty, like 5 mins before they can play again. However in quick fight it makes no sense with nothing to lose or gain.

    That's definitely always something to consider with any sort of leaver penalty, true.

    It can sometimes be pretty difficult to distinguish between a true disconnect and a rage quit, and as someone who's gotten matchmaking penalties in other games for my internet dropping, penalizing people for things that may be out of their control always feels pretty bad.

    Ranked having more strict standards is definitely not uncommon and makes a good deal of sense too!
