On a 5k 1v1 map the game can easily be decided by 8 mins in. It will then be very easy just to leave and lose no rating, the game don't have to be finished by that time.

Yea, you had to wait in a dead game 4 minutes just to ensure the accuracy of the global leaderboard eh??? Seems silly at best.

the info, that time limit counts from "Transfer" to all players leaving the score screen should be posted more obviously. Yesterday I played a 2v2 isis in 4:50

but as my teammate and i wated 4 more minutes to make sure we get points, we got our points

- It's for custom games only.
- It's REALTIME game, and it's count at the moment you press launch. Loading times are included.
- If you stay at the score screen, it will still count.

i posted in the other chat, but its an announcement, so it didnt show my post:

8 minutes is way too long. on small maps, this can be a real game time (winterduel 2v2 or 1v1 or blasted rock).
This should be fixed. 4 minutes was ok, maybe 5. But 8 is too long

What is the purpose of this limit? (not talking about the change to 8mins, but the entire rule itself.)
Just wondering.
