[2020] Upcoming Changes for PvP League Season 2

Originally posted by Penagon

Players who desert matches (such as by abandoning the match or disconnecting) will automatically be given a “desertion,” which counts as a defeat and will cost that player -1 pip.

If a player from your team deserts the match, and your team is then defeated, you’ll lose no pips for that match (and the match won’t count as a loss should you be on a win streak).

Stop me if I am wrong - following scenario.

• dude 1: 'yo dude, we are going to lose and I'm about to tier up, you ok to DC?'
• dude 2: 'yeah bud, but as long as you got my back when I'm about to rank up?'
• dude 1: 'sure dude'
• dude 2: 'sweet!'
• dude 1: 'sweeeeeet!'

if you win despite a party member DCing, you still gain pips though, right?

What if, on the map before the match starts, everyone leaves the party (which would still make them stay in the team obviously)? In that case will everyone count as soloque, or still as a premade because they were together when they got the qpop?

I could see this becoming a tactic - people disbanding and reforming after each match, taking turns when it comes to logging off.
