Currently if you press tab, right click and then click a name you can mute the player. This only mutes their voice communication, I’d like it to also block their chat or at least give a separate option for this. You could still display the quickchat messages as anything useful will be sent in this way, plus it has a limit so it can’t be spammed or abused.
Option To Block Players In Chat

Yeah, muting a player should mute all typed communications and not just voice outside of quick chat. And it should maybe block that too since some people spam that as often as the game lets them.

I’d welcome that suggestion. You may encounter sometimes some very obnoxious people that begin to spam the chat with insults and rubbish content. It’s very annoying to have a guy who begins to rage on his own team or the guy who killed him when you try to get some fun.

I doubt this will happen. The most I’ve seen in any games is a serversided !mute or disabling all game chat. Its a bit of a stretch to ask for this kind of feature.

What? In every moba and MMO I have played you can mute players and block their chat, in SC2 you have a blocklist, even in Loadout a third person shooter with incompetent devs had a blocklist! In this game they already include the option to mute someone’s mic, how is this a stretch? It should be commonplace.

Just because it isn’t common doesn’t mean that you should be able to get harrassed via text chat with no option to stop it other than leaving the server.
I imagine it would be an easy thing to put in programming-wise.
EDIT: Anti confirmed that it’s supposed to mute all communication but it’s bugged.
