Input drops

So like many of us who have been playing this game for a while. It's no new story that the game has always had questionable consistency with input drops. However, talking with my alliance mates there really seems have have been a massive increase in the issue pretty much since the AI issues initially started (you know the one where kabam openly said they had not touched the AI and that we as a community were tripping and then months later said "so yeah we have been tinkering with the AI for a while now and it has caused a few issues").
Now honestly if it was just the standard I think it would just be one of those things we take on the chin but seriously anyone else feel it's just getting worse and worse with every new event that gets dropped? I have had days where I start to play and after a few fights go, nope today is apparently not the day for this.
Is it just the fact that there is too much content being released and the game cannot handle it or is it literally down to bad programming or is it just a case of it's the same as it's always been just seems worse when looking at a small data pool like a single alliance?
So yeah, what the experience been like for the wider community ?

New phone, sure, but same size as last one and my thumbs (as far as I can tell) haven’t grown.
Is it my imagination? Have I suddenly developed a chronic case of “lazy thumb” or “thumb drop”? Have I suddenly developed a real life case of reversed control?
I doubt it—just like I doubt the team is able to fix this or a dozen other similar issues. But it helps a little to come on here and see it’s not just me.

Lately when triggering Sp3 on different champs the game isn't registering when I tap and I am frequently getting "Too late!" and not getting the SP3 10-20% bonus. This one is new for me.
Also, I can be across the battlefield and while I am holding a tap on the left for a block it isn't registering and I get creamed. This happens several times a day.
Then, there's the randomly dashing across the screen into a medium attack while holding block Today, I forget which champ I was using, but I was fighting Thing and holding a block. Then, all of a sudden my champ goes flying across the screen as if I just swiped a medium attack. I've seen some people on the forum saying this is normal when fighting Magneto or Onslaught, but it's happening randomly at least once a day.
I’ve also had issues with the stricker button not working lately. I’ll be mashing it while it’s glowing and nothing happens.
I hope I'm around to see the servers shut down.

Calling it a "competitive" mode isn't accurate. It's not competitive more than it is luck of the draw.
Same happened with the striker button and specials too. Mash it, nothing happens. And best believe that's when the AI will immediately counter and throw it's special.
