Chat, AFK, Feeders, Teams

This could be an excellent game. One of the best games on mobile devices even. But right now it has some serious issues that will cause a majority of players to rapidly quit.

1st and most important, is the awful teams. No one wants to get paired up with a player who doesn't actually play. People who AFK in the starting area or suicide in the first 30 secs of a match often ruin the experience for an entire team. And at the moment, there is no way to report them or block them from your matches or any punishment for it at all. Even the AI is horrible, with virtually no accuracy, and the inability to accept team input. If a player is teamed up with AI they should be able to guide AI allies using the "Together", "Attack", "Capture" and "SOS" alerts.

2nd, is the horrendous chat. Spam everywhere with no way to block it. Reporting is useless since it doesn't go into effect in a meaningful time frame. So once again there is zero accountability to prevent any form of abuse. This allows trolls to spam chat with random gibberish, expletives (because apparently constantly spouting random curse words at no one is popular among 12 year olds), racial slurs (I blame Trump), or offers for nudes (including from people claiming to be 12 year old girls...can anyone say "Child Porn is illegal").

Finally, while the buddy system is great, full teams would be a vast improvement since strategy is incredibly difficult to coordinate in a match, especially with no real chat function, and it would make the possibility of AFKs and Feeders ruining gameplay much less likely. As the game progresses, this will be even more impactful since it would drastically reduce wait times if entire teams could queue together.
