5 ranked losses in a row, should the game forbid you from playing ranked for a short time?

If you lose 5 or so ranked games in a row, odds are you're tilting. Should the client simply say "Sorry, take a f#cking break!" and forbid you from queueing up for ranked for a short time? Or is that toxic?

I'd love to see client poping up a window with recommendation no to play.

"Seems you have a bad day. How about you take a break? See your family once in a while ;)"

But blocking you to play is imo out of question.

I can't remember what game it was, but it would tell you occasionally that you've played for quite a while and you should take a break. I don't think locking ranked for a short period (for losing streak or otherwise) should happen, but a reminder on how much continuous time you've been on and how many losses you have would be a good idea. I try to end the night ahead or even on win/loss, but if I'm behind and keep playing I do recognize the need for breaks in between.

I have a personal rule when it comes to ranked. Stopping after two losses has kept me from a losing streak.

Until the client can recognize on it's own who is causing games to be lost something like this shouldn't be in place.
