This is already against the rules in many online games.
It is called "intentional feeding".
If you are playing a game and purposefully f stuff up, you will be banned.
It has to be pretty egregious, but yes this is ALREADY against the rules in the vast majority of online competitive games.
- jstarfish 9y agoDon't the matchmaking algorithms correct for this though? If you're an "A" player and you throw a game, I thought penalties generally applied and you could eventually find yourself downgraded to "B"?
- s73v3r_ 9y agoIf you're an "A" player, there's a good chance that you could make up that penalty, and still remain an "A" rank player.
- stale2002 9y agoNot necessarily. For example, what if a teammate only "throws" a game when the game is already lost (but the game will likely last for another 10 minutes or so) That wouldn't effect win rate very much, but it is still a bad player experience to be with a teammate who is intentionally trying to be bad.
