Why is 90% of the playerbase dodging?

    People sitting in lobby and don't play.

    Better yet those who have advanced to not logging in at all so they couldn't be accused of dodging at all!

    This some new sport?

    You are a known dodger, this thread is pointless. Just be happy you aren't konung status.

    People don't give a Firk? At least I can say there's one person who doesnt give a Firk. I would love to give a Firk but they can't get the game to a ****worthy status. Until that point, no ****s will be given.

    We are all dodging you. We, mere plebs, could never match up to someone who is taught by Tiny. You are the chosen one!

    That's why this game has no players. Nobody wants to play when you do.

    As someone getting back into the game, I like to observe more games than I play, plus I can observe games while I do other stuff, so it makes it a nice leisure activity. When I have time and can focus enough to play matches, then I'll get in there.

    Also I'm so awful right now I just don't want to play as much. Still getting familiar with a lot of my runes again in single player because i get wrecked in ranked by plebs.

    I can confirm - while I hate to ignore people, to ignore one specific person in this forum makes the whole reading experience funnier and more interesting. Try it out yourself!

    And as to not derail, I am not playing pox much right now, but I still like to watch worthy matches, like Tiny, Ballballer and Burn.

    Its pretty simple really. The only people left playing are the try hards with too much time, playing top meta BG's. Personally I don't think its about dodging anymore for the most part in terms of people trying to maintain rank. For the casual player who plays maybe a couple times a week, if they log on and see a couple top 10s in the lobby or Tiny chances are they wont que, not because they are afraid of losing but simply because they know they aren't going to enjoy the game as they'll be facing the stale Meta Bgs. There's no fun in being curb stomped by the try hards. Obviously this wouldnt be an issue if the playerbase was bigger as there would be more diverse ranking players on at any given time.

    Yeah, but it's funny knowing that you and I know.

    So what you're saying is disable observer mode. Disable the main lobby and lobby chat so that queuing is blind.

    I agree

    You guys do plenty of trash talking on the forums. You don't really need a lobby chat as well do you?

    Couldn't agree more, it's not even that i hate losing it's more or less playing against the same stuff gets really really old.

    There are new initiatives in the works for Leveling/Ranks in general, but in the short-term, the next expansion will have some rules about how the Lobby works and the way Rating is calculated which should hopefully make dodging less of an issue and encourage people to play more games (instead of dodging to maintain rank).

    KF runes be more efficient than ma whole faction. Rather watch someone else be massacred by Lexicon shenanigans.
