this suggestion is only about repair mistakes that was done in past, where people who get non ranked time (what is in general great and help in 90% of causes) was not thinking about all impact that it can ensure.

i've never said that, you can read again.
i'm just saying that if players are smart the meta of this map is going to change into a 1v1 after the com-bomb of 6 player in the middle of the map. Currently this cheap cheese of suiciding (everyone can do it) in the middle wasn't worth it because game ended unrated.
maybe i'm wrong, maybe people gonna find some new strategy to counter it, or maybe there gonna be some gentleman rule to avoid such cheap tactic.
But this issue only exist because of bad map design. I don't really care, since i don't play gap, i'm just warning you that must think more about the impact of the change you are pushing.

damn it. What are you disuse about? About dont rate game becsaue somone win with non standard chees way? With this line we can talk also about dont ranked game while someone die to tml/beetle/ghetto snipe. becsaue its not standard and should change gameplay in bad manners...

Non ranked time is only for reason to secure conection, and fast rehost while someone drop from game, what happend in 99% causes on first few minutes. While somone die it is not causes that he drop the game, he jast fail in game, he lose. And his team probably too, it have nothing to do with conection but with gameplay.

i kinda agree for wonder, but the strat is nearly un-scoutable on gap of rohan since everyone go to the middle.. Maybe by first bomber, or first land scout to see if opponent give facto to 1 player.

Wonder it should be no problem i would even say if this happens on a wonder then the game was somehow unbalanced if not extreme unluck. So should happen very rare. But it explains why i didnt lose points on sands of ablicka. This rush map was ended in a total loss of me and my team but simply to fast. Maybe reducing time to 5 min instead of 8 would be fine already.

Its not just a gap thing, its also a wonder thing, and surely rush strategies can be aplied on other maps as well. And if you play 5v5 oe 6v6 and kill 2 players in first 8 minutes, the rest usually quits.

well i guess it more the problem of the map, if those kind of strategy are employed...
the design of gap force com to get at the front to get the reclaim.. I guess if early cheese like that will work (rated) on this map, the strategy of giving your facto to 1 player, and send com to front to com-bomb everything is going to become the standart.
the way the map is going to be played gonna change from only eco to com-bomb middle + 1v1 (and 6 people watching).
Not sure if this is an improvement, but it's not like gap meta really worry me. Would be funny to see how this "tourney" end up if your "solution" is being apply.

ohh dear retard ill steal your post, thank you!

Also on gap of rohan i dont know where i play gap and it was ranked. While you dont want to play eco turrtle fest, and while you try some early snipe attempt it finish as unranked game becasue enemy team after lose 2 comander jast leave and join to another game. I dont say that they do it by purpose to have unranked game, its mainly about dont waste time on losed game, but its not fair for wining team dont get any rating with masive KO, only because it was too masive.

Ps: i dont even know where it was last time while i play gap...

In normal wonder game (5v5) its no problem for 2 players from one team die in 9 minutes. Good agressive strategy is then rewarded by unrated game for the winning team.

Hi guys, Ithilis here!

currently a game is unranked if it ends too quickly.
would be great if it was still ranked when an acu died to damage (killed in game) and not from disconnect.

because i have played a couple of games now where we killed 1-2 enemy acus so fast that the enemy team quit and the game ended before it was ranked!
