Opponent doesn't play first round of ranked match?

This has happened often enough that I wonder what’s going on–sometimes my opponent just doesn’t play the first round. Hopefully it’s just that they’re getting interrupted or something, and not some problem with my connection that would make people think I’m trying to cheat.

Some people use it to read how good the other person is, so they can toy with them in later rounds. I think it’s pretty sad.

Oh, I hadn’t thought of that. I’ll have to make sure to kill them in the scrubbiest-looking way possible, then.

I approve.
