NB: This was just a post of me venting about two shit games back to back where the same player absolutely rolled through even when half of our team was pre-warned, but I wanna note that in general this trend of "one player gets fat then rolls the other team despite their best efforts" is something I'm noticing on my own teams too.


What am I meant to do when by luck or some other factor a player gets what you think is a meagre lead (1-2k) then spirals into an absolute seal clubbing?

When there's not surrender mechanic you're held ransom to ensure the winning team extracts their "fun" from having you feed into them until they decide playing TDM is enough and play the objectives?

I've had close games, equal games, games where we lose but it's a well fought, but recent updates have stuffed the MMR (or maybe cheating and smurfing is just common now?)

Same. i had some ahit games yesterday and the whole team didn't do anything to stop that one guy who was getting fed. After 10min it was pretty clear we were getting rolled. I thought about a surrender mechanic, but immediately thought how everyone would just spam surrender when they lose a lane.
