    We were 4 heroes against 5, won.. It has been 40 minutes of my time, so why not a real match.
    I have played 5 on 5, but a person disconnects on 20th minute and leaves us for dead, we still win the match and it is considered a real match? I don't get it.

      "This match is marked as insignificant, meaning it likely does not count for or against the lifetime statistics of participating players. Matches are marked as insignificant when they end prematurely, a player leaves very early or not enough players joining the game."

      Read the fine print.

        If someone does not pick a hero, game does not count.

          kinda unfair if games like this counted because 90% of the time u would lose
