As long as you don't decline, anything goes. I wouldn't take offence at anyone's hustle tactics.

As far as your scenario above goes, I'd knock Brad out and leave the opponent to deal with Holly. Given the fact he's got H2H Diaz and Retreat Pickett, he's probably got a maxed H2H Joanna or H2H Cat Zingano hidden in his BW roster anyway, so it's not like he's got *no* chance.

Yeah, good point. Bottom line on etiquette is don't decline.

Gower1: When you're a complete newb to the game, I can't hold it against such a player for declining. My first H2H matches were like 13-14 days after Day 1 (installation), so my ranking was like ~3,000 at the start of that season, lol. I was really lucky though because that season the bonus was "Silver quality fighters" (crappy grey fighters). They don't do those seasons anymore -- that was the last one. I'm sure I declined the high power ratings, especially like 80k players.

Early on I was too much of a newb to even check their lineup -- I'd be scared off by the power rating of 40k+. But, before long I had a team w/ Power rating near 30k and would take anything with 1-2 winable fights, which was almost anyone. As soon as I started getting declined myself I was like "hey, that sucks. I'm not doing that anymore." That was probably season 10, my 2nd H2H season.
