This is the thread where you can paste pictures of your successful beat-downs of those boastful (and the not so boastful) competitors in chat who deserved one!

What is the purpose of this thread, aside from shaming?

Call outs of specific players are not permitted in the forums. @Sirrian, would this fall under that rule?

With how heated the conversations can get in this forum, this thread could be very dangerous indeed. 👎

If people are really so thin-skinned that they get upset by visual evidence of a feature the developers have now BUILT INTO THE GAME, well, sure, that’s super dangerous.

Shaming? You would consider this nonsense to be shaming you if somebody beat the AI playing your team? Does the AI really play any team well? I haven’t seen it do so. The purpose was the amusement of people who have a sense of humor about themselves and the game. If those people are in short supply in this community, well, that’s really a great shame, in and of itself.

How bout this, people showing their wins or loses over the top pvp leaders on the board instead of randoms.

Does that strike you as the sort of remark that a person actually worried about harmonious forum behavior would make? It strikes me as the sort of borderline hostility representative of passive-aggressive internet control freaks who, taken in the aggregate, induced me to adopt the name that I use. Maybe it’s the lack of an emoji that gives that impression, however. 😱

Hypothesis or self-fulfilling prophecy? What does your name signify? Your song is all wet?

Wouldn’t this fall under that rule? No offence intended 🙂

As for the topic of this thread - I don’t think such pictures are shaming (it’s against this so-called AI, where the “Intelligence” part is obviously a joke), but I don’t see any sense in posting them (for the same reason…)

Well if I was Hadoken I would have found it funny - he only won a single gold key! Things seem to get a bit het-up here very quickly ☹

Thought you had to lose to get 0 experience.  
Must have photoshopped the victory image over the defeat one 😉

That looks like the screen you get after a training match not an actual PVP match.

Yes, that is correct. If some harmless chat rivalry erupts, the fast way to settle the dispute is a training match.

It was not random–it was a challenge out of chat.
