AQ days 4 and 5 and the sudden garbage gameplay....

I see threads all the time w regards to the laundry list of bugs, glitches and gameplay issues and thankfully don't run into many of them.....however...
The last half dozen AQ's I've noticed something. Days 4 and 5 are already pretty damn tough when concerning the difficulty (10.6 mill alliance w a day 5 prestige of 8,600 or so). Along w that difficulty I also have noticed a SEVERE drop in playabilty and glitchiness. Between the lag, slowed and/or jumpy frames and the erratic fighting style of the AI it's close to impossible to not avoid massive health loss.
I do the immune skill path in section 2....so add that in with all the above, so it takes a pretty skilled player to reach Dormammu w no to minimal items used....which I am if I may add. Had a flawless fight going with Gwenpool w my full health Cap (5* 4/55) and w 1/4 health left on her, the damn frames started getting all jumpy and skipped causing the swipe to evade the gunshot on her L1....ONE hit and the ensuing incinerate took 10k+ health!!! **** seriously Kabam?!
And for the record it's not my phone...Iphone 6S+...nothing running in the background w full signal lol

There has to be a simple explanation for it.
I also had issues with Venompool in the monthly quest where his SP2 would freeze the game. Zero issues otherwise besides block failing to work in the monthly quest.
Issues occurred on both iPad Air 2 and iPhone SE. Honestly, not even sure why I bother playing this or thinking that some day Kabam will actually fix something.
Challenger rating, from what I know, definitely affects stats, and might affect abilities. However, I don't think challenger rating goes as far as causing bugs and glitches. I also don't think it affects the AI difficulty, which is easily proven if you bring a maxed 3* to duel let's say...a maxed 4*, compared to bringing a maxed 4* to duel him. There will be no difference in the AI difficulty.
As for the other replies, I have experienced it occasionally: From whiffed hits, to a sudden drop in framerate for a few seconds. Although, I can experience this at any time (not necessarily strictly on day 4 or 5 AQ). I think the reason why these issues are more prominently visible on days 4 and 5 of AQ is because the enemies are much tougher to kill, meaning the fight will drag on long enough for you to start spotting these issues. That's just my rough theory.
@Ajar I have the same phone but no issues except the usual sporadic crash at the end of the fight (never ending loading) when I switch wifi-mobiledata
Yep that's what i'm experiencing, too. only Mobiledata is playable for me right now.
But the thing is i'm a good fighter, but lately everytime i try to block it's not happening, the same with parry. And idk why
Both of my points are different. AI is so much good at intersecting and catches you mid air. And the other point is, higher the CR of opponent lower the ability of your champs.
Challenger rating and ai shouldn't make my Google pixel drop frames and nothing on those nodes says slow-mo. Everything was working smoothly until day 4 and had one crash entering the fight vs hood... Never even saw the filters running into the ring. Lost half health of one champ. Restart, confirm no other apps running, confirm signal strength, enter fight with next champ, luckily no crash, frames dropping like crazy, guessing I got hit with a heavy because I went from entering the fight to laying on the ground. The dropped frames were happening a lot in t4 arena last night as well, but they're not as deadly there. Might as well have been fighting under a strobe light.
YAIS. Stuck in place was driving me insane yesterday. Swipe back, but no movement and getting destroyed. Swipe forward after a parry and no movement, swipe again.. Again.. Directly into a combo. Noticed this mostly when using ultron vs the mutant line in the third part of map 5.
