shouldn't abandoning a game count as loss?
Sort:
this happened with me 4-5 times i was in winning position and opponent abandoned game.
shouldn't this count as win?
Normally it does. You sure it wasn't a server restart? Been a few of those lately...

how do I know if it was server restart?
Was the game aborted part way through? Only way that happens is a server problem.

It always does unless there is a server re-boot.
Leave Penalty: I have to watch bots play for the remainder of time while trying so DAMN HARD NOT to leave. Therefore I quit ranked mode, even though ranked mode is easier because of matchmaking. Wow Apex Showbox jiofi.local.html tplinklogin
