I'm calling it now. In 15 years the word frog will be synonymous with cheater

I don't think that's the most likely outcome, but I could definitely see it happening and actively am hoping for it.

I wonder if I can make a cheat that doesn't do anything but turn myself into a frog...

Seems like it might carry the slight risk of someone cheating to intentionally become a frog for the lols?

Doesn't it permaban after the match?

Yes, can vote to either end the game immediately and ban them or turn them into a frog for the rest of the match and then they are banned.

Now people are gonna want a "froggers" (like "Fraggers") mode.
