No ‘Good Match!’ Until match end

[Valence]

Perhaps the choice of what is available in quick chat is the problem. I do understand that SE is trying to foster good sportsmanship and positive messages with things like Nice Job, Game Match, etc, but since they are used ironically 99% of the time... Even Thanks is a coin toss, sometimes used genuinely, sometimes just as a replacement for Good Match or Nice Job.

Perhaps the only quick chat that should be available are commands that are actually directly linked to the game objectives, like retreat, attack X, LB ready, etc. And at best a Hello only available at the start of the game.

I’m just guessing Jp are more respectful than NA. Just being real here, but even if jp KNOW they’re screwed by team set up, they’re still gonna ‘smile’ about it. NA server? You see that clown who won’t stop queing while not breaking 100k, yeeeeeeah, yer gonna hear about it. I mean, what do you expect one to say when they know they’re gonna get their butt handed to them trying to carry the extra weight? Like I said, ‘Good Match’ was a warning.

(Toxic Toxicson) Nice job!
(Toxic Toxicson) Nice job!
(Toxic Toxicson) Nice job!
(Toxic Toxicson) Nice job!
Toxic Toxicson marks you as "Target to Ignore 1".

No different than Smite...if they add a "Cancel that" command I'll be in tears. xD
If you're reading this devs, do not add that as a chat option.

I think all this time I've been using the chat wrong...

I say "Nice Job!" when someone racks up a bunch of wins. I say "thank you" when they cover or heal me. I end with "Good Match" even if we didn't win.

Maybe I'm too polite for PVP

I dunno. It’s just that the devs seem to have this glittery concept that pvp is supposed to be this. . .mutually pleasant experience, and it’s not. That’s what MAKES pvp good in the first place. Example, teabagging is a gm-able offense. But when you had that little _ that’s been following you around for the last 3 minutes trying to kill you and suddenly your team just blows him up, and he’s laying there on the ground, what are you naturally going to do? Bow to him out of the pleasant experience of fighting him, or tap dance the entire Riverdale production on his face in a very clearly pronounced ‘that’s what you get mofo’ waltz? Yoshi’s attempt to bleed out these verrrrry natural responses just takes out the natural hot blood that makes pvp exciting in the first place, and this removal of such a simple expression just pushes that ‘water gown’ aspect all the further.

Get on with the damn match?

As long as you're actively cooperating and potentially using chat commands that are relevant to gameplay, like "Push the crystal!", then it's fine.

Also, saying "Good Match!" after an even-sided contest isn't the same as doing that after being on the receiving end of a one-sided slaughter that may also have dragged on for too long. If every match is a good one, none of them are. And clearly, they're not all good.

Example, teabagging is a gm-able offense. But when you had that little _ that’s been following you around for the last 3 minutes trying to kill you and suddenly your team just blows him up, and he’s laying there on the ground, what are you naturally going to do?

It's another thing that could be easily resolved by them disabling emotes in the mode, since they serve no good use whatsoever. If they're simply letting people BM just to punish them, it's entrapment.
