    Source line
    If a player abandons a game after 5 minutes, that player will receive leaver penalties and their party will have the game count as a loss.
    • Other players on the abandoning player's team will have their game voided and are safe to leave without punishments, however if they stay and win the game will be counted as a win.
    • If all players on the abandoning team leave, the game will automatically end and be counted as a win for the opposing team.

    If a player on the other team then abandons too, they are penalized the same way, no remaining player takes a loss, and you only get a win if your team finishes and wins.
    Source line
    However, if a player on that team then abandons as well they will be penalized just like the first abandoning player/party, and the above rules kick in for the opposing team now as well.
    • In this case, none of the remaining players on either team will have the game count as a loss, and you will only get a win if your team finishes and wins the game.
