i was going into ranked pvp ( 4v4 ) and when we got in one person that was supposed to be on my team was there but not part of the duel so it was a 3v4 match. help is appreciated. ~Marcus Boomshard Archmage Pyromancer
That's happened to me a few times. From what I gather, it has something to do with the player's (who didn't show up) computer not loading the duel before the countdown is finished. Sometimes it results the missing person walking around the battle ring and not being able to join.
I think that KI is working on fixing this. They are currently fixing the puppet teams in the Test realm.
Hope that helps Emmaline Mythblade Grandmaster Pyromancer
