Reported and blocked someone but was still placed into a game with them the second match

They were intentionally AFKing, I abandoned the match and was blocked from a new game for 5 minutes whilst being accused of ruining the game for others... seriously? What ruins the game is creating an bad gaming environment where people who are blocked are still placed into games with you...

Blocking does not prevent you from being placed in matches with them. It only blocks social interactions.

Being able to prevent players from being matched with you could easily be abused.

If you want to make sure you're not paired with a player. Don't queue up so quickly.

Today myself and a random teammate (in 3v3 Ranked) were winning, then our teammate with a minute left, deliberately scored several own goals, causing us to lose. We both reported them, I left to the main menu, and several games later I was matched with them again. I blocked them even though you said it doesnt work (which I think is awful). So leaving a while before playing again doesnt make much of a difference, as the pool of players I could match with is likely really small due to game modes, time of day etc. It ruined my fun and I knew I'd be punished for leaving early, so they win every time. Rocket League is the first multiplayer game I've played where you can be match-made with a player you blocked.

And then your queue times would be 5+ minutes and you'd have to start unblocking people in order to not wait forever.

What a joke of a response, so you play with someone toxic, block them and then can't play the game because you'll be matched with them anyway.

How about fixing the system, here's a crazy idea, blocking someone doesn't affect ranked because yes as you said could be abused but in casual it stops you from being placed in a lobby with them wild, Phynoix is such a joke.
