Seriously, I'm getting sick and tired of bug after bug after bug making this game borderline unplayable. Since the last update it appears like there is a temporary input glitch that is getting me killed all the damn time. Finish a combo in BGs? IMMEDIATELY get hit in the face by an unblockable defender because the system doesn't accept your back swipe IMMEDIATELY at the end of the combo! Try to use a striker to extend a combo to get to a special? Don't worry, the striker will just straight up miss and you'll kindly get smashed in the face and lose.
How can this be acceptable to keep putting out a game with in game offer after offer while the core mechanics of the game are broken this bad?

The answer for me has been simple: reduce playing time. Minimize frustration and lower the odds of throwing your phone at the wall by only doing what you enjoy in game.
Dropping BGs (disclosure: I’m in Diamond and only playing 2-3 matches at a time before deciding whether to continue) is a healthy start. I’m giving the game one restart and if that doesn’t resolve, I move on to something else. If BG freezes cause me to lose, I just walk away from that game mode and the game in general if necessary.
In my opinion, the only thing that gets a response is low engagement and/or low revenue—and not necessarily because the team doesn’t care (I think they do), but because there are so many things going on that it’s impossible to manage the amount of issues that crop up in a game of this complexity, and those two things are what bumps something to the top of their lists. In general, I just assume they are overwhelmed.
So keep your sanity. Doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results…that’s not sane.

Display glitches, loading screens not even popping up, not letting me select my champ, completely disregarding inputs and me getting hit in the face (last fight multiple times), and yet somehow I actually WON this matchup 🤷🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
If I could tell me back when I started, collect all champions in each * level and max them out .
How's it possible after the defender completes it's combo, I rush in and my hit goes right through the defender just like a Hood doing an sp2? It's considered a miss and I get clapped as a reward. I got cheated of this nonsense input issues.
If I'm getting cheated out of this fight, I'm fine with those cheaters getting away
Like you say its just not worth getting frustrated over this specially since kabam doesn’t responds or shows any type of urgency in trying to get the input situation improved. Fighting mechanic is the core of this game and needs to be continuously optimized and improved, we have a “new beta input system” that its like a year old not sure why they not embarrassed they keep calling it “new”… the robot thing to help them develop this input system was just a total failure … Instead putting all their resources in optimizing the core game mechanics for a smother gameplay experience, they deciding to waste time developing something else like relics.
I’ll just do side quests maybe play BGs casual to check if input situation has been resolved, but if not I’ll be finally dropping this game. It’s been real y’all ✌️
The 5th hit being dropped is one the most apparent problems I'm having right now alongside the swiping back not triggering dexterity. I've practically given up on BGs except for daily objectives and when game starts to go unplayable I do just like you say, I close the game and move onto something else. I really do hope they get to the bottom of these inputs but am not holding my breath.
