Suggestion to Improve Solo Queue System – Unfair Rating Loss for Missed Accept
Hi Warmane team and PvP community,
I’ve noticed an issue in the Solo Queue Arena system that I believe is quite unfair – and I’m sure many others have experienced the same frustration:
When I queue up for SoloQ and, for example, go AFK for a moment or accidentally miss the accept button by a few seconds, I automatically lose -25 rating. I understand that the system is trying to prevent queue griefing, but this feels way too punishing, especially for active players who just happen to miss a pop-up once.
Even worse: I’ve had several cases where I entered the arena, but no opponent showed up. Eventually, the match was canceled – and I received no rating change at all, even though I was ready and waiting to play.
My suggestion:
Please make the rating system fairer by applying the same outcome to all players involved in a match.
If a match doesn't happen (due to no opponents or technical issues), there should be no rating loss – either everyone gets ±0 or no change at all.
If someone consistently declines queues, they should be punished – but not at the expense of other players who are ready and actively participating.
I honestly believe at least 80% of SoloQ players would support this, as most of us have been in this situation before. In a competitive environment like Warmane PvP, fairness and stability are key.
Thanks for taking the time to read – looking forward to feedback from the community and the staff!
