Platform: Android, but probably on all platforms Issue: after winning a battle in pvp and continuing to the next one, the game needs to select three new possible opponents. This selection procedure is not performing well. It takes between 5 to 11 seconds for the next screen to appear with the three battles to choose from. Other screen switches in the game perform way better, all between 1 to 3 seconds. Please take a look how to improve this as it is annoying and probably unneeded to wait this long. ![IMG_20231214_190100](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/c/8/c82e0edf410096d6769f2e0905640a24997f9979.jpeg) ![Screenshot_2023-12-14-19-05-41-55_639543440735615bbc36855b9e156373](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/c/e/ce1e0b2b01bfcc8bcf396079864433c6cc8f382a.jpeg) ---

It is very slow, frequently the battles are shorter than the loading of the next one. ---

At 5-10 seconds, you’re still on the lucky end of the scale. I’ve had it take over a minute a few times today, and I know that wasn’t just in my case. ---

The name “Quick battle” ironically hangs in there all this time, I want to errrrrase it already 🙂 ---

I’ll post my worst example of it here since the thread I replied to with it yesterday was a dupe and it won’t have been seen: [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/6/3/634d1d5fedcba68dd2300fb36e893fe7f5ecd7b9.jpeg "PvP delay between matches. 17.00 GMT Thursday 14th December '23") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fADlk-50xIM) Wait times between 10 and 90 seconds, usually 1 minute+ currently. ---

Currently I can get into a multiplayer game of halo in basically the same time as it takes for a PvP choice to load!!! PvP a complete waste of time currently.
