Waiting 3-5 mins for a game only to get dodged by a player not building on 1 sucks, getting 0 essence for our trouble sucks even more.
Give players (on the non dodging team at least) some essence for their time.

Maybe dodgers have to pay that essence out too as an additional penalty for dodging.

Or dodgers lose the ELO of their teammate too. The other lose 0 ELO and the full team gets ELO as if they won

Sure, why not.

I agree with Herp, the amount of times Sir3 has dodged me is probably about 69 times. It would be nice to get 420 red essence for my troubles.

Yeah I’d love more than 1 Elo, since I end up losing more Elo than gaining 😂

Imagine showing up to a boxing match and then suddenly going "alright no I'm fine i'm going home". for me that's a forfeit not a cancel, but i also believe that the teammate that showed up should not be punished as its outside of his control

teammate should not be punished unless you are a duo i would say imho ofcourse if it happens often with the same people you could punish that in some other way so it wont get abused

Dodger (and any duo of the dodger) loses 8 Elo, and the other players all gain 1 Elo, so personally, I don't mind when my game is dodged. I'll take a free +1 any day.

Will consider in a future patch adding a small essence compensation as well.

This was.. mostly for classic

obviously ranked already has the elo implication
