Resignation and rating rules

From the moment a ranked game starts, any departure impacts OS rating. Resigning immediately after the first unit spawns carries the same rating consequences as resigning mid-game. The system does not differentiate based on match length or personal time played. Team result determines final win or loss outcome, and individual ratings adjust accordingly within that result framework.

When leaving preserves some rating credit

Limited cases near match end allow players to leave without severe penalty. When a team has clearly lost and resignation consensus exists, departing players may avoid maximum rating damage. This exception does not apply to early departures or matches that could still turn around. The rating system tracks departure timing and context for moderation review when disputes arise.
