I've seen other players report him in previous seasons. He purposely waits for the 10-second timer to get down to 1 second for every move (playing a card, cutting, score review, etc.). Takes about 30 minutes to finish a game with him. I even had the "Play Time Exceeded - Verifying Opponent Status..." message appear 4 times and he was still able to keep playing.

As such, it should be relatively easy to recover by playing a few matches. This is one of the drawbacks of a relatively tight matchmaking system, where it can be harder to find a match even when others are there and playing, but not quite a good match. It's a hard balance.

I'm focused on improving the game play (UI design, matchmaking parameters, settings, etc.) so regardless of your results the experience is positive. If players don't enjoy interacting with the game then the player base drops, we get longer wait times finding a match, and larger gaps between CR. This season I'm noticing it's taking a lot longer time to find a match with a greater disparity in CR. For some reason we're not able to see how many active players are in the current season pool but it seems like it's a lower number.
