[Gameplay] I almost lost a ranked match over a Biscuit?

TICKET #41480130

I jumped into a ranked game just now and a player AFK'd (Probably a crash as its patch week) during loading.

No big deal I thought.. They either show up and we play.. or they don't and we remake.

Except.. The player had runes that gave them Biscuits.

At the three minute mark I was preparing to type /remake when the player received their first free biscuit.

I was watching the score board (tab key) to see if they came back and saw the item enter their inventory.

The Remake window never showed up.. because it considered that player as having purchased items.

Our team was horrified to discover we would be playing a 4v5 in RANKED and knowing the Remake was coming.. we were saying goodbyes and everyone was playing pretty carelessly after 2 1/2 minutes knowing that it was unlikely at this point the player would return to the match.

The only thing that saved us from certain defeat was the other teams skill level, our quick communications and teamwork, and the fortunate return of our player 15 minutes later.

(I'm seeing other people reporting being unable to REMAKE today.. however.. it should probably still be looked at.)
