I had two consecutive games where players abandoned in the middle of a ranked match, right at the beginning, and then had to go on without a teammate in a 3v4 during placements. This is a miserable experience. There should be a technical timeout or some sort of pause until a player can fill in. Basically got dragged when trying to help my friend get through placements.
It’s hard to know if they’re doing this on purpose or crashing or any of the other wacky issues that people have, since I’ve been booted from two big team matches today saying the servers were completely offline or something to that effect.
