Opponent Timer Glitch

3 out of my last 8 matches have resulted in ladder losses because the game simply did not factor clock into my opponents turns, whether they left the match or the game crashed. On the first occasion I let the clock run to 00:00 before screengrabbing and exiting the match. Can we fix this, please?

    This is the issue that the message when you start the game is referring to.

    Users EB95, Bubbawong22 and Folfire have all used this glitch to force a concede - I have screengrabs to prove

    @LiamDawe They aren't abusing. They don't get a win if you concede. Both sides take a loss as far as I can tell.

    @TechHog Any way we can corroborate this? It is getting annoying af (lost a 7 game streak to it)

    I just played 3 matches in a row and got glitched while my opponent was activating an effect. Don't remember if I had a winning streak but I sure lost it if I did. Wish it would just get solved to continue playing.

    I had time to play four games today... two of them, both against Mew, ended with this timer glitch. It's completely ridiculous A) that there's no way to indicate a disconnect, if that's what it is, and B) that it results in a loss. I don't even care about win streaks, but it's so frustrating trying to make progress on the ranked ladder when something like one in five games moves me backwards because of this error.

    Same. This needs fixed asap. The app is simply unplayable now.
