Has anyone else run into this? The player never makes any moves and lets the timer run down on every round.

What would you guys do? Concede? Or play it out. I've been playing them out, but I'm torn.

They attempt to win by exhaustion..

Blizzard really needs to change battles, so 3x timeout = auto forfeit.
There really is no excuse for timeout; you have three different moves and a pet swap. It's not something you need to ponder on for a long time.

In Hearthstone, you loose after 3 turns without making any moves, and that's a game with infinitely more moves to do per turn..

That said: No, I haven't run into it, simply because I don't PvP..

I would be tempted to see how long I could prolong the match by passing and pet swapping. But it is probably a bot.

Sorry, just thought that was ironic.

Ehm.... Don't think I understand...

In fact, I just read a thread on the offical forums about this team. I guess I missed it the first time I was poking around for it. Anwyay, someone suggests doing just this. I hadn't tried this because, like you, I thought it was a bot. However, the poster said that if you do what you suggest, they do eventually forfeit and then forfeit quicker if they run into you again. Worth a shot, anyway. Also, someone said they did report it and got an answer suggesting that something might be done.

Others say they just battle it out, which is what I've been doing. Tab out and read something interesting while coming back to attack every minute or so.

Not to mention he isn't exactly "cute", nor was he an outstanding PVE pet at all.
Hence my surprise someone would represent him who never PVPs.
But hey, different strokes for different folks.

He is INSANELY cute..

I suffered countless hours upon hours of HotS, only because he is so cute..
