Safe to abandon matches

[katoistok]

So lately ive been staying for the safe to abandon matches to make sure i win and it seems to count towards my victories. Which in all fairness it should just be counted as a no contest.

Exactly, safe to abandon matches should not count in any way or show up in match history. Now could it be that they don't actually count in the background? Maybe, but it still skews your matchmaking history and the stats for the hero you played with in that match.

Just had a match where someone on the enemy team made the unfortunate decision of abandoning the match (Presumably a rage quit). This were then followed with a couple more from the enemy team leaving, meaning we technically had an "easy" win, everyone but myself and two others on the enemy team ended up leaving. So it ended in a loss anyways.

And sure, if it ended in a win I probably wouldn't really have thought much more of it, but seeing it show up as a loss in the match history makes it feels pretty bitter. Even if it ended in a victory, it really shouldn't count in any way, especially if there's more than one person who left the match. It's not a proper match, it skews your overall match history and the given hero's win/loose ratio.

Exactly, my new obsession is fixing my win/loss ratio since there's no rank system yet. I am 14 losses over. Its not necessary to obsess over this like I do but its demoralizing personally to have losses or even wins in all fairness that should just have a separate counter on it that says no contest. Then I can really tell how good or bad I'm progressing.
