Why Does Hearthstone does not have a 2 min reconnect time?

Like if I got disconnected at end of my turn without playing, I end up losing at least 2 turns in a row, not to mention the frustration of losing my ladder streak to that!!

Why Does Hearthstone does not have a 2 min reconnect time or an extra turn or whatever & please do not tell me to save players time as there some decks are designed for an average of 30 min game… I don’t think it’s very hard to make a notification to the opponent waiting to reconnect like friendly matches with a 2 min counter total per match or even a min & half= like its an extra turn!

The least you can do guys is to cancel the fast rope in the 2nd turn!

Probably due to people finding an exploit.

It sucks because I know what you mean. I have lost some crucial games because if disconnects and it hurts.

P.s - great choice in avatar selection.

Well it depends when you DC. If you managed to play out the turn then DC, the next turn will be full length. If not then you still had the full first turn plus opponents turn, plus 15 seconds to get back. Since I’ve got used to the tells (floating card etc) I don’t think I’ve missed a turn due to a DC. Had some frantic ones, that probably cost me the game but I always manage to close and reopen the game fast enough to not miss a turn.

The potential griefing means it’s not a feature I wana see added I’m afraid.

The Thing is its totally random & unexpected, all I’m asking for is some order to things, not for a ranked game to be dependent on my pure luck If I was able to land a card before dc or not. And I don’t think cancelling the fast rope in my next turn is much to ask ( In case I was not able to play a card) which is actually just an extra min while it should be atleast 2 min… And Thank you guys for responding.
