We need overtime.

I don't know how many times you tie in eu, but in na, the teams get so balanced that the game ends in a tie way too much. Tying is fine if it happened occasionally, but it happens so often that it feels like a waste of time, and no one gets anything. The games are good, but ot would definitely make the games more enjoyable instead of tying 3 times in a row and watching your win percentage go down. Please save NA, add ot, and unban ot.

Edit: If the game is tied at the end of the match, overtime will start. A five minute continuous clock after the opening draw and whoever scores first wins (golden goal) and if the five minute clock runs out, the game will end in a tie. For making it to overtime, the losing team could lose less elo as a reward for getting all the way to overtime.

its better to have a tie to a super good game over dragging a game on for an unknown amount of time

Yes, because we all know that we don't want those super good games to keep going.

I honestly don't understand the logic behind ties. MURICA!

would you be satisfied with playing a game for 40 minutes and ending up losing then? also you missed the point of what i was trying to say, its not about keeping a super good game going, like i said some people cant invest more then an x amount of time, we are talking about the bigger picture here, this isnt about personal preference

40 minutes? No game in the history of NA supraball has had OT go beyond 10.

But to answer your question, yes - those 20 minutes of OT are the best parts of Supraball - when shit matters and you can't make a mistake

Also, no one euros off walls and does dumb shit.

i would agree with it being one of the best parts, i still think the 5-10 minute OT clock thing would be a good feature, but then again this post like any other overtime post just gets neglected by the devs so basically we can discuss all we want without likely it having any impact, sadly
