I’m sure this has been brought up before, but there has to be some dis-incentive to keep rage quitters from ruining the experience for everyone. I’ve literally loaded into vs games with 4x 35 lvl players on one team, and all bots on the opposite team. The round starts and immediately ends because their are no humans on the other team.
Also loading into games with 4x 35lvl heroes and several sub-lvl 35 heroes on the opposite team seems ridiculous. Honestly I think at minimum heroes should need to have 4 heroes at least to lvl 35 to join a VS game. They at least might have some understanding of the mechanics, and would at least be guaranteed not be stuck with their “last pick” character. Can they not at least take into account total time in game or something?
Matchmaking is also busted in VS. (which is it’s own separate issue).

It is not separated issue. Players leave games because of bad matchmaking.
You can introduce penalties for leavers. And players will just stop playing. Or they will throw and go AFK instead of leaving.

Currently if you have a bad noob team against vets there is nothing you can do. It is just impossible. Even if you are the best player in the world you still will not stop any decent hero team. May be only by abusing glitching spots.
And you will not save your noobs.
It is not like CS GO where you can just land few headshots and win.

I totally agree with @maximumgraf . I am disappointed by the amount of leavers in the game, but currently matchmaking is the one that should take the blame. There is no chance and no point playing the game if you have several lvl1s on your team against a full team of green badges. Not to mention I have seen hosts using hacks that insta-kill everyone on the other side.
But I think FS needs to do something about host deliberately closing the game when losing. IMO placing temporary bans to the host is good enough, or transfer the game to someone else (I doubt FS on this though)

Ability to simply leave game is a saviour of Versus right now.
