I’ve gotten good at it. In fact, I’m the perfect Paragon to let matchmake with the lower ranked players who whine about needing prestige matching: I’m even worse than an auto fight BG opponent.

I think you'll be making these "time to acknowledge" till you get to version 50+ mate, kabam can't seem to be bothered with anymore updates on these issues. Good on you for trying to get their attention though.

Somewhere in there is a request for more detailed information… like what phone version, what was the last router firmware you installed, did you eat peas for dinner, etc.… without this information how can they troubleshoot?

I have a different one for you Zola:

Step one: Win match one (by the skin of my teeth)

Step two: play a pretty strong match two: CGR vs Nick, with opponent playing Warlock vs Thing

Step three: lose the match with the opponent scoring zero victories

At least it only happened to my alt once. I now have four losses in a row on my main, all due to glitches.

It would be a mistake to call this a dumpster fire, because dumpster fires are warm. This is pretty cold.

Have you tried turning it off and back on?
