im getting tired of running into cheaters in battlegrounds. to start this off i knew this match was gonna go bad cuz he was sandbagging but we drafted our champions and he had all 1 stars and 3 six stars. i started my fight and ended up taking an L, i get off the loading screen before we choose our defenders and attackers for round 2 and it said i instantly lost the whole match and didnt even get to fight the 2nd round. moving on tho i would like to point out that my first fight i locked in knull as the defender and he locked in knull for offense. the following are screenshots i took after my first fight

    can we post the cheater names here?
    im sick of filing reports, already put 6 reports today.

    ergo i lost 6 * 90 shields to those %^(*&^%$

    clearly measures after season 2 were so bad that they are still willing to do these things!
    grinding rewards and they will never have to give them back or face consequences.

    To be honest: This sounds like your opponent quit the game, and you’ve won. However, due to a bug that has been present since season 1, in this case the game will show you the results of the previous fight…

    Do me a favor: Check your Match history… I bet you it will show a win for that specific match… (and it will show that you had lost the match before that)

    Let us know…

    You state that sandbagging is a bug?!

    No. The bug is: When your opponent quits the game mid-match, the game will instantly take you to the result-page. But, it will not show the result of this current match, but instead it will show you the result of the previous match. That is the visual bug.

    In the match history it will be identified correctly.

    But, off-topic: I don’t think sandbagging is cheating, either. It is just the way this game mode is played, until Kabam changes the matchmaking algorithm. You should try it yourself.

    But that’s another topic…

    according to kabam it's cheating and their against fair-play rules.
    since you are proposing to do so, i guess you're one of those?

    Because OP’s Thread sounded like he believes he has encountered a modder, that was able to beat him with 1* champs… I think that might not be the case.

    But please: Let’s not hijack this thread to off-topic… I am interested in what OP reports back…

    no it counts as a match loss and round 2 counts as a loss even tho i never got to fight or even select an attacker or defender

    If round 2 shows as a loss, it should show what champs were paired together…

    Can you send a screenshot of the match history and a screenshot of that specific match, with both rounds, but crop out the name of your opponent?

    I expected your match to look like this in the match history, where my opponent quit after the first match, because he only had 2* champs left in his deck… So I won with only 1 fight…

    Ok, I give up, this looks very strange… Especially since your Spidey managed to deal 10% damage to iHulk and the fight that never happened took 36 seconds… 😂

    thats what im sayin it literally makes no sense to me, im sensing another leaderboard clense for bgs this season cuz this jus isnt cool or fair

    It's pretty disheartening, 3 of my last 4 matches have been obvious cheaters, finishing fights in 6 seconds. It's just a waste of elder marks and energy at this point. All can do is click report and hope for at least 3 matches in a row with fair players.

    Not sure what can be done really, people will probably always cheat, the cleanup at the end of the season is all well and good, but doesn't really solve wasted items in the victory track.

    How is this possible without cheating?
