    I dont see how all these explanations may proof that you dont know before enter in a BG match, that....

    There's no time in 1:30 to read some champ to fight ...lol .... You should know a lot of them to face....

    If you notice some problems with AI ,record the screen against a champ or the whole match and after cut and show on YT or forums.

    If unexpected things happen as a call or real life emergency, lol, you need to know that you will lose the match and just accept that, is not that terrible.

    The pause can be removed only on BG.

    Almost done the text to Kabam support 👍

    I pause win everytime I see a HT on defense, really scared of that degeneration damage.

    Pausing as a strategy is for cowards too scared of a fight in a fighting game. Prove me wrong.

    You are right; but if someone wins 2 rounds that way its actually kinda funny...

    At that point it says more about the person losing than it does about the pauser.

    Exactly... At that point I would be more ashamed about making a post on the issue than the issue itself.

    In the 1 million other threads about pausing, it's not about being "too scared of a fight" it all about points farming for the the rewards. 99% of the time the people pausing against me have far superior decks.

    I get frustrated with the pausing because I actually like to pit my skill against the other player, and try to beat the higher class champs. Sorry, but if my opponent has a higher class deck and pauses against me I take the L and forfeit the match.

    I can’t argue this… sometimes douchey can be funny.

    Nope not mad. Just stating facts. Pausers tend to emotionally respond to being called what they are. It’s a fighting game not a timer watching game.

    It’s an issue that rarely impacts the results of my matches. Especially with Nick being out of peoples decks these days.

    Just a discourteous waste of time.

    You quoted the wrong guy. You meant to answer to BigBlueOx
    I don't care if its too scared, lazy or whatever... If someone gets 2 rounds on you by pausing, there is no way you were winning that match, and pausing is just a lame excuse for failure.

    Unfortunately I agree with the premise although I still think that it’s a flawed scoring system that should count pausing for a certain amount of time as a forfeit

    I see a number of sides with this. Of course it's not fair that some people get rewarded for doing nothing, especially in semi-unavoidable damage metas like Hazard. (I know it's avoidable with the right counter.)
    At the same time, it's not that easy to remove the Pause function. Not in any practical way.
    Also I can see the other argument that it's up to the Opponent to do better than 15k. The problem with that is, you make that a universal minimum when you suggest that. That's counterintuitive to the design.

    All I can say is that if you lose too many matches by pausers, to the point of making a post and really be annoyed, the problem most likely is you.
    I mean yeah it sucks, it is weird; but how many times can one honestly say "OMG people pausing are taking over BGs"...

    Did my opponent paused?

  • BringPopcornBringPopcorn Member Posts: 6,529 ★★★★★

    Yeah, most likely paused before Hyperion threw an Sp3 or something.. you can see he only fought 31 secs and let the timer run out.

    Nah, I’m not gonna blame posters like the OP for being frustrated about losers that exploit loop holes. I’ll acknowledge it’s not a big deal with the current medal system though as VT is not the same slog it once was.

    But I’m happy to consistently call people who think this is a valid strategy a loser and shame them.

    People shaming the posters are missing that point.

    I dunno, I can see a situation where my attackers have no chance at all and pause to gamble on 15k points...Once every like 50 matches...
    I still find it "weird" people get so annoyed by it, how many times do they lose to a pauser to get this annoyed?.
    I already know if I ever cross paths with someone I am pausing all rounds lol

    To one very specific player? Yes I would lol. Ban his top attackers, pause all rounds while spamming loki emotes thru the whole match 🤣

    I'd probably play the second match just so it would go to three matches.
