Timeout on disconnect

Submitted 4 years, 4 months ago by

Hello everyone,

Just lost another Arena game because of disconnect near rope. I find this really frustrating, I even hate when I win this way and I even occasionally concede when I feel I would surely lose if they didn't DC. I wanted to see your opinion on the idea: introducing the timeout timer in case of player disconnecting. 

I played MtG Arena a while ago, and remembered that there was a similar feature when a played is AFK (as I recall you get 3 of them). I really liked it. I thought that it would be great if HS got some kind of DC protection, like at least additional 30 s just in case of DC specifically, once during a game. I don't see any drawbacks to this, as long as afk-ing is excluded, but I might be wrong.

What do you think? Would you like it, would it be helpful?
