This just happened to my brother and I, we were doing 2v2 ranked PvP. He had 6 pips, I had 4, and the opponent had 500 health left, but then, guess what.... we lost connection , but when we got back the battle was over, and my brother and I gained 20 points in our ranking. , and the opponents lost 20 points, :-D So, KI, how do you determine what happens when people lose connection?

Lucara,

Losing connection is often because of programs on your PC, I find.
At first I thought it was KI was dropping me after so much time, but
I found that is not the case. Finally I found out that either it's Windows
trying to install an Update, or the Anti-Virus program trying to update or warn you of something.
I'll bet if you put your Anti-virus into the Game Mode Option, and also stop the Auto Updates while you play, the Disconnections will also stop.

Good luck, as that bothered me for quite a while also.

Joe.
