Sometimes, one of your teammates may be unable to join the game lobby during a match. In such scenarios, instead of going ahead and playing an unfair game of 4v5, you should remake or forfeit to avoid any loss of RP. Unlike most tactical games, Valorant only allows players to leave a match before the commencement of Round 2 and requires the vote of all your remaining teammates.
