Okay, this is starting to get a little annoying. I join ranked Vanilla queue expecting a legitimate fight, instead I get matched with a runner. All they do is run from you, turning around every so often to bow spam you, making you waste your health. They wait for your buffs to run out before they actually fight you. And when they do decide to finally fight with something other than a bow, they just pearl on top of a tree and jitterclick. For the people who think this is a, "strategy": Running takes next to NO skill. It's cheap, and the ELO you get in return for using this cheap method isn't an accurate display of your skill level, and I, along with many other people, think it should be punishable. Just to clarify, I have no issue with people running for a few seconds so they can re-pot before returning to fight you. Here is what I believe should be done about runners in Potion PvP. I think running and bowing for minutes on end should result in a temporary ban, starting out at 1 to 2 hours, and gradually increasing as this offense is repeated. Fighting people who just run and bow continues to annoy the Badlion community.

Now for the people reading this thread, I would like to hear your opinion on this issue. Tell me what you think should be done about this, and what you think a fair punishment should be.
Thanks for reading.

Matches shouldn't need to last 20 minutes.
