Why dc'ing only gives you -1 pip

Hello there,


I see a lot of people dc'ing nowadays and I think it's because they don't care loosing 1 pip. They don't punish them a lot. It's frustrating to see. When the match doesn't go the way they want to they just dc. Heck I even experience killers DC's across the board like nobodys bussiness. Can you please put it back to -2 pip? It would punish them a lot more. Thanks :)


Greetings

    Rank doesn't really matter still so that is making people who DC happier

    Pips don't matter unless you care about being high rank, Most don't. There's no reward for being high rank. You actually get harder games at higher ranks so people intentionally don't want to pip. Giving a -2 pip for DC would probably increase the amount of DCs and bring back the levels of Deranking there used to be.


    What's needed is a time limit set to rejoin a lobby when you DC, an Actual Punishment because the method they've been using clearly doesn't and hasn't worked to solve the issue. It's been years.

    Nobody actually cares whether they depip or not. It's more of a reward to lose 2 rather than 1 because you'll derank faster

    -1 pip is a punishment.

    -3 PIP’s was a reward.

    People dc’ing don’t want to gain rank.

    People would DC just to stay at low ranks and bully new players.

    I really really hope that the devs implement a punishment where you lose 25k BP each DC.

    if you dont have them you go minus 25k
