I think this is desperately needed. There needs to be a way to shorten matches that are unwinnable.
However, if I learned anything from Marvel Rivals, it’s that players will use that surrender option after one lost fight.
I say open up the surrender option if your team loses 3 rounds in a row. Even though it’s just one round, there’s really no coming back from 0-3. Just let us end it one round early ya know?
Certain Stadium power ups can be game-changing, like having an Ashe with Widow’s one shot power, but you don’t get there by giving up early. You need to build up the funds to buy top tier OP buffs.
If your team loses 3 rounds in a row and it is actually unwinnable (15k resource gap) the game just ends. I have come back though from being down 0-3 down only about 9k.
Played a game just today where we went 0:3 after the first 3 rounds but then reversed it the next 3 rounds to to a 3:3
Unfortunately as seems to be a common issue, we had a person just decide they didnt want to continue playing since we had already been playing for over 30 mins, they told everyone in chat they were going and then just left so we lost 4:3. Total waste of 40 mins for everyone in that match
Having a mode which can last 40 mins is just dumb. No one wants to play an ow match that long and leavers are consistently ruining matches for those who are willing to stay.
No one is benefiting from this mode being 7 rounds. It should be best of 5 rounds to cut back the match length to 25 mins max. Round 1 you shouldnt get to pick a power, it should just be an economy building round. Then you get to choose a power every round from 2-5 instead of every other round like it is now
Even when I’m getting rolled, at least I can test other Stadium purchased abilities that I would never otherwise touch against actual players. Maybe go for a dedicated Ashe burn build or similar. High weapon power seems to get the best results, but I do want to test other builds.
