will soon close the servers that have allowed players to try out a slice of its superhero roster since April 9. With launch still weeks away, those who signed up for the limited test are left to reflect on the battles where they may have beaten their opponents a bit too badly.

Players of varying skill levels flocked to the Invincible VS beta and quickly found that there seemed to be little penalty for those who left matches prematurely. It led to moments where Viltrumites and Guardians alike would be pummeling their foes with a string of combos only to be met with an error that simply said, “opponent disconnected.”

. “That way there’s a feeling out process in the beginning of the fight that makes them less likely to rage quit.”

Rage quitters, otherwise known as players who exit a match early because they may or may not be losing, are far from a new concept. Whether it be through delayed ****** times or even temporary bans, many multiplayer games, especially the more competitive ones, typically have some sort of system in place to discourage this kind of behavior. Invincible VS, however, doesn’t seem to have any kind of deterrent.

Some players believe matchmaking may help the issue, with the more skilled fighters also reporting that they’ve continuously found themselves stacked in unfair matches leaning in their favor. While others have started suggesting Quarter Up implement penalties of some kind, a few believe something more extravagant, such as a feature similar to the Quitality from Mortal Kombat.

It makes sense that a free beta test would attract players who aren't as familiar with tag-team fighting games like Invincible VS, so many fans have started recommending newcomers at least don't skip the tutorial. Either way, some of the memes that have emerged from the weekend suggest players want something to be done.
