Blizzard will take mid-game vacations Monitoring 2 It's more serious Implement harsher penalties When Season 10 arrives, people playing unranked games will no longer be able to join the queue for five minutes after leaving two of the last 20 matches. If they leave at least 10 out of the last 20, they will be suspended for 48 hours. Players will probably want to be more careful when it comes to leaving competitive matches, as doing so 10 times out of 20 will get them banned for the rest of the season. Blizzard said in its announcement that while it recognizes that not everyone abandons a game on purpose, these changes “should help curb those players who intentionally choose to abandon a match.”
The developer is also making it easier for groups of friends to play together in competitive mode, regardless of their rank, by offering “broad groups.” The wide range is defined by the presence of players from a wide range of ranks, from Diamond level to levels up to five lower skill divisions. Blizzard admits that choosing the new queue option will mean longer wait times, as it will have to pair a wide group with another wide group of similar ranks in order to be fair. But it is hoped that the new feature will eliminate the need to use an alternative account when playing with friends.
The company is also adding new features designed to help prevent in-game abuse and harassment. People will soon be able to add up to 10 players to the “Avoid Team” list instead of just three. It also makes it easier to report disruptive behavior by updating its reporting interface. Finally, Blizzard blocks a player's access to text or voice chat in their matches if they are found to have engaged in abusive behavior and violated the company's code of conduct. They can only regain these privileges if they spend time playing Monitoring 2 On their best behavior.
