Yes taking away a popular playstyle in a game that is supposed to be the “definitive edition” is malicious. It’s obvious why this leaving before 1 minute became an issue in DE, and instead of dealing with that issue they double down and punish those players even more.
I really want to like DE across the board, however they don’t let me. No I don’t want everyone to go back to voobly or HD, we need to go forward and unite the playerbase.
No one is saying you have to play only 1 map, but many people enjoy that. They can give us a fully featured ranked lobby, or integrate it into MM.
