Cheaters glitching out turns

So I guess the new meta is to glitch the game out after dropping the warrior colossus or queen azshara so your opponent never gets to take another turn. Happened to me 3 times just today. There’s no burning rope and you just sit there for 3 minutes waiting for your turn and when it finally is your turn you get to watch them go 3+ rounds, however long it took to kill you.

There are a couple of broken interactions at the moment. I’m not sure I’d call them cheaters, though. I know they’re aware of some Azshara issues; Regis suspected one turn that his opponent got locked out and the next time he played her (via Zola), he got locked out, too. It’s certainly bugged, but my understanding is that that the bad interaction can affect either player (and the interaction shouldn’t be problematic, it is something you would expect to work). Maybe some people are abusing it, but it’s simple enough that I expect most people don’t realize it’s even broken.

As Jasmeralia mentioned, above, there are definitely a number of issues as of late. If you spot such an issue in future, your best bet is to close and restart the game to (hopefully) get back without missing a turn!

I’ve noticed this with brann+ queen. It crashes my game after first discover and I had to restart. Today I tested it again and not only did I crash but my opponent roped out too, so both players glitch.

hey quick question on the bug. i did azshara and bran. locked ME out completely.
is that the bug you are refering too?

It depends. Are they running i not knowing it causes the issue, or are they going full tilt with the intention of forcing someone to D/C so they can get extra turns, or win a game(s)?

If the former, then no, like all players, they’re just another caught in the cogs of the soulless actiblizz machine. If the latter…then they are abusing an exploit and are in violation of the tos.

Try not to post specific examples, as we don’t want copycats. Open tickets and report them.
