The second option you have is to do it during your match. You can open up the scoreboard to every player playing in that game. You can go down the list to individually select what players you want to mute for the rest of the match. This is also an area where you can choose to mute every player in the match. You may want to do this if you’ve missed the chance to do this during the start of the match.
