I just started paying and I love it! Its so fun and competitive.

Yesterday I was playing ranked and I got teamed up against a dude that literally ran up the wall mid court and boosted straight into the goal EVERY TIME.

My buddy was like F this after 2 minutes and quit. Even at the restart he bounced the ball flew (with the ball) in a arch trajectory straight into the goal. It was 8-0(in 2 minutes) I could never even touch the ball..

Is this normal? It was our 2nd day playing and I doubt we would get matched vs someone so good on competitive.

"Found out some people get INSANELY good at this game and do borderline impossible moves. I thought this guy was cheating, turns out he technically was, just not how I thought."

Sometimes people will purposefully lose matches to lower their rank and thus play against newer players. If this happens to you again, use the report option either in-game or once you've left the game, and it will send us a report that we can investigate.

Regardless, thanks for playing! I hope you enjoy your time in-game

Does reporting a player for anything other than verbal harassment actually do anything?

Absolutely does. We recently updated in-game reporting AND updated our own ban processes so that more disciplinary action is being administered. Mods here have previously noted recent upticks in posts relating to receiving "Unsportsmanlike Conduct" bans as well.

Nope,

I know that it maybe doesn't seem like reporting does anything due to not receiving those "feedback notifications" but please be assured it does. Telling folks it doesn't only works to our detriment as player reports help us improve the process.
