Apex Legends: Streamer banned for evading leave penalty

Apex Legends Season 3 kicked off on October 1 and with a load of content, it also brought some major bugs as well. The most recent of the bug being the “Alt+F4”.

The ranked mode allows the players to play and rank up in the ranked ladders. But to ensure players didn’t rage quit or just leave the game after getting knocked, devs introduced a penalty system that did not let players join any match for a set amount of time and also point loss as well.

With the ban system getting stricter, the streamer isn’t the first one to receive an in-game ban. What do you think about the ban? Let us know in the comment section below!
