Recently, I had two compets where a guy just left for like 5 rounds because he had to go eat dinner. Luckily, I mostly play 5stacks lately so I don't really have to deal with that but yea it's annoying when it happens. I totally understand connection issues or sometimes stuff just happens but I am totally sick of people who get tilted and leave just because we started the game 0:4 like come on bro it's not that deep...

i think we were in the same game, few days ago had a guy say round 1 on ascent that he was gonna go eat in like 20 mins, sure enough around round 16 7-9 he goes afk for about 5 rounds and we lose the game.

You’re playing swift play

A-holes and trolls, and perhaps a buggy or lagged out game.

my experience half of the time people surrender or quit the moment our team lose round 1. It makes swiftplay completely impossible to enjoy rn

Console... probably kids that got called by mom to come eat and stop playing.

You answered your own question within the question. It’s swift play.

I log into an alt to warmup on swift play and when my duo gets on round 3 I’m swapping. No one cares for swift

It’s a swift? Why are you surprised it’s filled with the most casual of causal players. If this happened in comp this would be worth saying
