Why should you lose points for a fight that's run out of time?

To discourage peope from just trying to get the other person to quit by being slow as possible.

💯 

Both should lose double as a deterrent. G3 is becoming way easier, but stalling is increasing.  I quit most matches so doesn't impact me too much. But makes it more annoying in the 2 or 3 fights I'm actually doing.

I can understand that reason but twice today it's happened and in all fairness on both occasions it's been a genuine fight to win the game not time wasters.

absolutely needs to be in place for that. even farming my way up Silver I'm still running into salty people who pick poorly, lose their reviver, etc. and then just tank/stall like crazy until dead.

viability will depend on where you are - basically assuming not in gold with a limited roster - but when you can you're absolutely going to want two DPS these days, if possible.

busy carrying in hydra 😂

I honestly still don't care enough. 7AM-9AM, 1PM-3 PM, 5PM-7PM and 11PM to 1 AM are just dreadful times for me most days.

I forgot u were on Canadian Cali time.  5 to 7pm much worse than 7 to 9pm for me.  I can usually catch first 30 minutes or last 30 of that window.

#1 change needs to be expanding availability.   Play is definitely up enough. Is this even on their radar? This is a wtf why the hell not?

It's been suggested several times, and I personally still push for it, that there should be a turn clock just like in chess.

Instead of 20 minutes total, each player has 10 minutes. if one person runs out of time, they lose.

I just hate getting matched against an account I have absolutely no chance of beating. Total waste of time

That happens to all of us, suck it up, quit and move on to next one.

yeah, I couldn't agree more. I mean, everything in this game basically leads to PvP so it does kind of stink that times are so restrictive. to me it feels like they're trying to avoid having dead periods of activity by having it available too often.

I think even just chopping up the 8 hours of LA into one hour cycles spread out more evenly throughout the day would be great. but alas, I am mostly resigned to sleepily clicking buttons near midnight most days. :)

Live is garbage, no argument there, but getting matched against teams I *think* i have no chance against has made me a much better player. In no small part just from learning by trial and error how to counter meta champs that I wouldn't try against in classic or tag.


And there is a small but significant number of krakens who have amazing rosters with+4 empowered 6* blessing mythics, and absolutely no idea how to gear them or use their skills effectively. Guys who just throw money at shard pulling but never actually learn the mechanics of the game

I absolutely love beating these accounts.  Nothing in this game makes me grin wider.

I probably wake up between 7-8 most days but jumping into Live Arena first thing in the morning seems not ideal 😟

Best time to do it.  Day can only go up from there.
