Summary
Marvel Rivalsfans have been discussing the issue of players quitting in the middle of ranked matches and asked that NetEase Games issue harsher penalties for offenders. Season 1: Eternal Night Fall’s large mid-season update is scheduled for release on February 21, which will add new heroes, a fresh map, and numerous balance changes toMarvel Rivals.
In a recent post on Reddit, Deep-Arrival1594 suggested that players who leave in the middle ofMarvel Rivals' ranked matchesshould suffer a 50 point penalty instead of the current 20 point loss. Their reasoning was that, when gamers lose a match, they often drop more than 20 points. So, leaving in the middle of a round actually helps mitigate that loss of points, though deserters are also met with a temporary suspension that prevents them from joining new matches for 10 minutes or more. Some fans had mixed feelings about the idea, as it’s always possible a person could legitimately disconnect because of internet or hardware issues. Leaving a match isn’t always a malicious act, though it is often a vexing one for teammates.
