Small patch with one major feature and some bug fixes/general improvements.
NEW! Leaver Protection
- A leaver is defined as being gone for 3+ waves or AFK for 3 minutes, and also not being connected at the end of the game
- If your team has a leaver, and your team loses, you will now lose half rating instead of the full amount
- Leavers now always lose rating, even if their team wins
- The above changes only affect solo players, not duos
Our goal is to protect you from losing rating due to having a leaver, without (1) encouraging players to leave, (2) allowing for abuse, or (3) being overly punishing to players who disconnect.
