God I think people in general playing this game quit like crazy. I'd assume that it's mostly just because it's still a new game and also one about popular fictional characters, so the amount of casual players is still rather large; and most of these people seem to have the scrubbiest of mentalities. I frequent Injustice on Miiverse and 90% of the time there's someone complaining about "spammers" or when being more specific Deathstroke and/or Superman. Even after the patches finally arrived people were still complaining about Deathstroke. I tried explaining to some of these people that Deathstroke actually got nerfed and that it was easier now to block his guns and dash in, but instead of listening they just kept on complaining. Most people complain about not being able to react fast enough to counter "spamming", but they usually don't realize that input lag is likely the culprit when playing online, and not the properties of the character's moves, and that maybe they should block more instead of trying to just throw out moves.
I've almost given up playing online altogether as my last venture was very disheartening with damn near every person I had played rage quit in fucking 1v1 player matches. Somewhat coincidentally my last online session I actually played a good Deathstroke that ended up wrecking me since I haven't played a good one in a while; somewhat ironically that was the best set of matches I had had all day.
Since my friend has seemingly dropped this game (or atleast taken a break from it) I decided to pick up his main (Deathstroke) at least as a pocket character, but whenever I try to choose him online the person I'm playing immediately snaps their cursor to him as well (granted I haven't tried to use him that much) like I'm some monster who's making them resort to picking the same character because I'll just "spam." Same thing happens to me with Superman a good amount of the time too. I can understand peoples' thought process, because I can get annoyed at people that just use Slade's guns, or Superman's air eye lasers. The difference though is that I (and other players who like the game on more than a superficial level) took the time to get better at the game and know how to overcome these things, whereas these people see someone picking DS or Supes and get scared because that might imply they can't just jump in and press buttons.
At least it's mostly just a matter of time before the less invested players go onto the next new game, leaving the online atleast a bit more refined.
Anyways I didn't mean for this to turn into my own mini-rant, but there's my two cents on the matter.
