Am I the only to experience a significant increase in inputs issues?

Since a few days (maybe a week?) I have the feeling that very often pressing block doesn't work or it works too late?

Opponent get in my defense like butter at least 2 games out of 3. So I don't know if I'm being paranoid due to the past or if indeed it got worst again recently?

    Yes, in some fights I take a lot of hits, I get the impression that the block isn't working properly, because I'm sure I pressed. Another thing is the timing of the parry, in some fights I make a lot of mistakes.
    I find it hard to believe that it's something in my gameplay, I've been playing for over 7 years, I play arenas every day and I really get the feeling that the commands are not good

    I have had a few issues with the initial contact in a fight, knowing for sure I am blocking but getting steamrolled. Not often, but def in the last month or less it has happened more than before.

    I had a special fail to activate twice in a row today in the same fight. Maybe I missed the button twice after two different combos but it definitely seemed off.

    Omg yes to this point aswell, and this is something totally new for me. I have the feeling I’m missing the button from times to time.

    I’m glad to see I’m not the only one, but also wondering why we didn’t get any communication or more people talking about this topic so far? This is why I thought it was in my head 🥶

    Same. I block parry fails and I'm so tired of it I give up and let my hero get killed so I can re-read the node to make sure it doesn't say unblockable or something like that (and it doesn't).

    I've come to accept it as part of the game, but I don't appreciate no compensation - revives / heals.

    This is the issue thats caused a majority of my losses in battlegrounds. I’m sitting there holding block and champs that do not have unblockable just start comboing into me usually ending with a special and its game over.

    Yes the timing has been way off since the update. It’s been going on for quite some time, but really ramped up after the update that caused the arena bug.

    I've had 3 deaths caused by this today

    Yeah they broke something (again).

    Yup, same issue. I think there might be some issue with parry. It doesn’t work occasionally and randomly. Before, I used to hit block as soon as fight started to parry the opponent, but it’s not very reliable now, and opponent can hit you. Don’t know if it’s AI’s movement or something else, but I now prefer to move back and then proceed from there. Started happening in last few days…after the buggy update I guess.

    Same. I was thinking the whole time there was something wrong with me, and my eye hand coordination was messed up this past week

    Quite a few input issues since the last update as well for me

    What else is new in the world of Marvel Contest of Casino.
    After a few hundred times of getting punched in the face in the beginning of the match when I know I parried, I just accepted knowing I'm not dropping a dime into this game. So if they decide to pull the plug on this game, so be it. Hopefully another game that comes along won't have as much issues as Kasham has been having with this game.
    Till then I'm going to just bite the bullet with all of these input issues and play this game till they decide it's not profitable no more and move as they have done with pass games like Transformers: Forged to Fights and Marvel Realm of Champions.

    Same here. Even on playback from screen recording showed that I blocked the attack, but yet I still got hammered. And it wasn't on a disorient or reduced defensive ability accuracy node or anything remotely similar to those. Smh.

    Also been having the same dropped input issue when trying to launch a special attack. Right as I'm tapping to throw a special, nothing happens. But then the AI senses it and somehow magically counter attacks. 🙄

    Imagine that.
