    That's what happened to me a couple of games ago. Someone disconnected, I was told it was okay to leave, so I did - not least because I'd accidentally entered single draft and got 3 characters I had no idea about. Anyway, it seems kind of screwed for "okay" to mean "not okay".

      Safe to leave means you won't get an abandon.

      Safe to leave and No stats will be recorded means you won't get a loss.

        Still count as loss

          God damn it. Well at least I know for the future. Thanks.

          WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE...

            If it says no stats will be recorded then it will not count as a loss, otherwise yes.

                    lol yeah doesn't make sense... and the game after where the guy rage quits cause we're up 2-0 at the 3 min mark and leaves... that game doesn't count... https://dotabuff.com/matches/70044152

                      its pretty stupid when your win streak is ruined by a game that wasnt even played because there was dc and everyone in the game left after safe to leave except one guy on their team. :/

                        Dota should explain the meaning of 'Safe to leave'. I think DOTABUFF works better than Dota 2 gaming system... :p

                          is it some1 left before 5 or 10 min , and then u can leave without counting the win/lose? anyone can verify tis ?

                          Lo Pan

                            dota gods decide whether u get a win/loose.if you fight with your heart you may end up getting both a win and stats

                              Games that are left with show as a loss in you game record unless you won it.
                              It won't effect your stats eg. W/L Ratio.
                              It may effect your hero skill if you fed cause you didn't want to leave the game.
                              Dotabuff is another issue entirely and may record this as a win/loss but who cares.
