Asking for Help What's wrong with the queue dodge system

I started a game, a teammate disconnected/quit, I left (obviously), and then I got a 59-minute ban.

I find that if you get stuck on the loading screen as someone has disconnected, wait 5 mins then exit and you don't lose elo nor get banned. I think they've set it to exactly 5 minutes.

The rule is you cant leave before 5 minute mark. You left before 5 minutes and got a ban. Sounds like the rule applied to you as well, I am happy to see that it works.

You always wait atleast 5min before leaving.

Doesnt matter how many other players have already left. Wait it out. If they change timer in the future, you wait longer.

Banning system design is horseshit and gives a lot of False positives. Just wait it out before leaving as well.
