The sweetest win. A win against someone who bends the rules.

Not knowing the rules because it’s your first battle, is understandable. But that’s pretty rare at this point in the league. This was in a rank 7 battle. Any player who puts moderate to serious effort into the battles, would easily notice. And every player with a functioning brain will probably notice.

Assuming they can count to 2, of course.

I’m not saying this guy was definitely malicious, but he took advantage of a glitch. He could have just not used a 3rd shield to keep the game fair. Either way, I’m more just satisfied that I got off a win against someone using 3 shields. I don’t have an amazing record, and this is one of the highlights of my short battle league experience.
