Make it so if you leave match when your team mate leaves in ranked you dont take any penalty

What about theme?

the majority of the time, the current system just punishes people for being bailed on, and it’s hard to argue in good faith that that’s the preferable state of affairs.

I think the default needs to be the loss.

It’s too abusable in any other way.

The key is to proportion the loss appropriately.

And maybe have some sort of get out of gaol card for the last couple of players left.

@FathomKnight

and people already exploit by smurfing with a low rank to cheese their way up and bombing other peoples ranks

I don’t think Smurfing itself is as bad a people make out. TrueSkill2 adjusts their MMR very quickly - so while their CSR is slow - their Smurfing time is very limited.

The problem was definitely squad manipulation. And 343 have taken steps to address that.

@FathomKnight

because the system only seems to care that you lost to a team with 1 low rank not caring about the 3 high ranks

Sorry, I’m not sure what you are actually pointing at here?

The system mainly cares about the loss. And how you went vs expected.
