The Battlegrounds Duo problem

Multiplayer Discussion

I think we should have more time to play turns in duo than in solo since the fights takes more time and you need more time during recruit phase for you to communicate with your mate and find the best strategy. There is just more things to consider so i think its fine to get more time.

Duos went from being to my preference over regular battlegrounds, to now I don’t even touch it with a 10 foot pole.

  • Combats take way too long, often leading to skipped turns or no time to strategize. Thus you often have to panic level or restart your game during combat.

  • Teammate quality is far lower than what I have experienced in other multiplayer games, most of the time you are paired with someone who not only is terrible at the game but will throw on purpose if you don’t do exactly what they want-- even if it was a terrible idea. This was my experience even close to 10,000 mmr, so it doesn’t get better.

  • You basically take maximum damage for any fight you lose because of the dual board mechanic. Avenge is another flaw with the dual board mechanic since it often doesn’t work when your teammate goes first.

I don’t feel there is any need to extend the time at all. I feel there is more than enough time to be able to communicate when you’re playing with a friend.

How long does it take for you to figure stuff out? It probably would be better to play the match and than review your game play after the fact so that you guys learn from any mistakes that may have impacted the outcome, this would also better prepare you to be able to pivot when needed in future matches without taking to much time to talk it out.

Adding more time onto the match would just increase the amount of time needed to finish a match that much longer and draw it out for all players in the match unnecessarily.

I had games where both teams had team setups that made it take longer (undead, alot of reborn, etc). The animations take forever adding up to alot of time
Anyway, by the end when it was just down to us 2 teams we would have 5 seconds or less per turn… inexcusable
