I'm seeing a lot of people suiciding at the start of the current skirmish. Is it because they don't like the random game mode or what? Giving the enemy 5 kills in the first minute and leaving your team a man down is really dirty. 0-5 30 secs into a tdm...
Won't this put them in the leavers queue? Couldn't get they just quit instead? I've been in the leavers queue and waiting 30+ mins for a match is terrible so I hope they get banished there.

They are probably farming ads. 0/0/0 across the board will flag them for LPQ
I'm not gonna go into how they do it as I don't condone the behaviour

Yeah, farming ads. But I don’t understand why Pix doesn’t use a drop Timer for Skirmishes.

Yeah, farming ads. But I don’t understand why Pix doesn’t use a drop Timer for Skirmishes. I suspect there is no timer because the main intent behind most skirmishes is to advertise product. For example, i am curious about the ravana with atomisers and ravana tactics to some extent. The other bots with the exception of the fenrir can be crashed and burnt. So i ditch the fenrir practically every game because i am not going to spend a minute walking across the field. people are not taking the mode seriously anyway and that shown by a 4 bot crash and burn usually neting 1st to 4th place. I also suspect that if people ditch 4 bots the counter for the LPQ is activated or there is a penalty because there arent as many 4 bot ditchers in skirmish any longer. Same way as skirmish can be used to get out of the LPQ it can get you in. Just a hunch.....

I mean why even try 「fluffernutter」 us for wanting to test out new meta bots in a balanced environment right?

Skirmishes are ruined ever since iOS merged with Android. They can easily farm those ADs with cache delete, but on iOS you have to delete the whole game and you only gain one AD. So there was no point to do it and people sticked to the battle unless you were only there to test specific bots, because of this, games on iOS were good...
Skirmishes should not be cross platform IMO, there are enough players on booth platform to sustain this game mode where league points are not a factor. Skirmish used to be one of the remaining sweet spots for me with War Robots, now even that is ruined. I hate these players. Either fix the cache delete bug on Android or lift the AD limit on iOS to compensate me for ruining my Skirmish weekends.

There's also the possibility of just disconnects. Have been several times.

I can't start skirmish for whatever reason. I haven't tried this week but it always did the same thing, crashed when looking for match about 4 seconds in.
But I already have a lot of gear, I would blow out games like nobody's business, I couldn't rely on there being a skirmish any given week, and a lot of them were silly.
