Quoting I_Killed_A_Dwarf,
But yes. If a player dies before the first min is up I will instant quit you may think im a noob or whatever for doing this but how hard is it to stay a live for at least 1 min? espically when all the dgs have mostly the same gear and same level.
Depends on how aggressive you are. As erebus I'm often chasing people past layers and layers of towers hoping the bite will finish them off and the teleport will get me out before I'm dead. I still die very rarely despite playing most games on the razor's edge.
The first minute or so is very important for grabbing flags and that initial clash with the enemy. People fight hard during this time to hold their ground and possibly grab the early kill only to get duped by, say, an unexpected potion or double team and finished off. Sure, if they were hiding behind their towers they probably wouldn't have died, but sometimes you have to take chances or you'll be slowly ground away.
