    Why do lagging Players have advantages???

    It happend a lot of times to me lately that I play vs Players which obviously have crappy connection, however they get double hits and sometimes my units hits don't do damage. That doesnt make ANY sense to me. Why would the lagging player get the advantage all the time when I play with a perfect wifi or service connection? That is not fair at all and poor programmed. You should really fix this crap, because there are already enough reasons to either play a lot less or stop the game all together. The freeze lags for a whole month, buffs that dont make sense like this new inka craig, nerfing the cash in team events, crappy new ranking system. Its like you guys try to piss us off on purpose?! The game was great IMO a few month back but all these changes are mostly negative. Battlepass is good btw, but that doesnt make up for the f ups. Btw double hits are a problem since the beginning and are STILL NOT FIXED??? Please do your work and take more care for your f2p's , after all they should be the majority and I bet whales enjoy crushing them/us...

    Yea today I had another "bug" or cheat or whatever again. My Hermes Kenny CLEARLY hit the enemys unit twice. The dmg was dealed both times, but after the second hit the enemys unit REGAINED the dmg from the second hit. This happend to me a few times already. Its SOOO frustrating. Its like the game performs worse and worse although it is supposed to get better...

    This is nothing new sadly, I have posted about this a number of times during and after the beta As you say, it seems like whoever has the worst connection always gets to decide the state when there is a conflict between the clients. And yes, it certainly decides the outcome of many PvP matches. Sometimes I get fed up and actually turn my WiFi off when playing at home.

    I also play only with my 4G+ connection and still end up with lags... I assume its the other players.

    What I do not understand is that if i am winning and i destroyed two out of 3 of the opponents phones and I haven't lost a single health segment, why if there's a connection error, I end up "defeated"?

    Yeah, I also had something like that last week. My paladin butters (maxed out level 6) was hitting his palading butters (who was attacking my tank). My first hit did NO damage. Second hit did NO damage. Third hit finally killed him. Even with lag, this is strange, considering how long it takes for paladin butters to actually do 3 attack animations. His butters had no problems inflicting damage to my tank with every single hit though at the exact same time.

    Later in the game had other units from my team do 0 damage even though they were attacking. Lost the game (which was a critical team war game) thanks to this.

    Very frustrating indeed.

    Not sure if this exact issue was caused by lag or some cheat that simply drops/ignores some of the incoming packets containing my attacks or what. Double hits and zombies and other weird stuff is common, but hit after hit doing 0 damage felt extremely weird and thankfully rare.

    I guess if it didnt work like that, there is a risk people would just wait for the second they break the first phone, then just disconnect the WiFi to get the win :/

    Ye I get that feeling now too. In the past you had a player lagging for the entire match. And that was it. Since the last update I encountered for example Rouch1598 of T.M.I.3.5. like 5 times. If he was winning, the game plays out normally. But 3 times I had him on the backfoot and suddenly all units jump over the board, becoming unplayable and suddenly lose the game, as my units hits not being calculated anymore. I try to have good faith, but this is a lot of coincidence.

    The issue for me is that the lags, double hits, no effect of my hits, etc... disproportionately happen AGAINST me and not in my favor. I know the obvious reply is "you're just not paying attention but you're benefiting too". Well, I am paying attention. I'm aware that for, perhaps, once out of every 25 times it works against me, I get it to happen in my favor.

    I'm presently ranked as a top 1000 player with a score above 6700. It is also highly noteworthy, in my opinion, that the issue is far more pronounced as one starts to achieve higher scores. That is, the double hits / lags / failure for my characters hits to register damage or whatever you want to call it that is working against me happens with much greater frequency when one has a score over 6700 than when one has a score of around 6000. Which, to me, suggests that there's shady play at work which is causing this issue that the developers are choosing to ignore.
