I just got hit with a 24-hour ban from tournaments, but I only left one match early, not even for five minutes! I participated in a tournament before leaving and made it to the finals. This doesn’t seem right—could it be a bug or something?

Yeah, it’s kind of unfair. If you’re already losing badly and your teammate leaves, why should you be forced to finish? It feels punishing to expect players to stick it out in those situations. They should definitely consider tweaking the ban system to make it more lenient in such cases.
It seems like leaving a tournament match early leads to a hefty 24-hour ban, while quitting mid-game only gives you a short 5-minute timeout. When you leave a tournament, the ban kicks in the next time you try to join one. It’s a way to discourage players from just dropping out without facing any consequences.
Totally get your frustration! If your teammate bails and you’re stuck in a 2v3 situation, quitting seems reasonable. The ban lengths can be really harsh for cases like yours. They could probably make the system more forgiving, at least for first-time offenders. It’s tough to get punished for something that’s out of your control.
