What can you do about people who purposefully do bad?

So I was just playing some ranked, and I came across this one pretty good player. He splatted me quite a few times when he was on the enemy's team. A couple matches later, he was on our team and I noticed that he was doing really bad... 3 splats, as opposed to the many he was getting before. At the end of the last match I played, he was on my team, and he just sat at our spawn, squidbagging and flinging ink out into the water.

So, here's my question... Is there anything you can do about this? Because it's just about the most rage-inducing, idiotic thing.

If you see someone named "pantoufle", be sure to make their life the worst it can possibly be.

Just don't press "play again". You should always stick around to finish the match, but you don't have to continue playing with jerks.

I'm pretty sure he was messing up on purpose because maybe he was salty about the last one. Maybe he was on the team with someone who was bagging him last match and won, so he wanted them to lose points even at the cost of his own Rank. I've seen this happen way too often. lol

Wow, that's pretty damn low. I don't care if a salt delivering Dynamo that splatted me last turn is now on my team because now they're my salt delivering Dynamo.

You can block them from playing with or against you. Go to people you've recently played with. Gamepad Home Button > Friends > People Recently Played With (or whatever it's called). Find that person on your list, and there should be an option to block them. Might have to go their Miiverse profile to do it.

Now, I've heard that if the Ranked matchmaker is having trouble filling the lobby, it may override your block to get 8 people. But, barring that specific scenario, it may keep you from ever having to see that that asshole again.

That's a good feature, though I probably won't end up seeing him again anyway, lol. Thanks!

I'm not sure if there's anything you can do but leave the lobby.

I had a rainmaker match once where a teammate grabbed the Rainmaker, then took it back to our own capture point and starting spamming 'c'mon'.

He got killed but luckily we prevented the opposing team from grabbing the rainmaker and pushed it back to mid.

Unfortunately, he grabbed it a second time before I had a chance to steal it from him and he did the exact same thing. This time, when he got splatted, our opponents grabbed the Rainmaker on the capture point and automatically won.

Sadly, this has happened to me few times before.

I like to think that these players are "helping" a friend in the lobby, maybe when they're in the same team both try the best but when they aren't one sabotages his own team.

Or trolling. Never underestimate the stupidity of the lengths a troll will go in their trollity.
