Players who leave or quit the game before it completes will receive penalties. The purpose of these penalties is to discourage imbalancing the game, as certain mechanics are based around the number of people in the game at that time and can be severely imbalanced if players leave after they occur, such as number and strength of heroes and number of players which plague.
These penalties will increase with each subsequent occurrence. In order to remove penalties, players must play and finish games, but can regain penalties if they leave or quit a game early again.
