Character Select to prevent a Bloodlust Stomp
In T1 this is a non existent problem because of the extremely long queues ~ 50+ for borderlands and 100+ for eternal.

Because you gaining 1 point or maybe 3 from stomp will change the course of the matchup right ? LOL
Aside that we definitely need an ingame option to report exploiters.
There are even worse than that (expecially since the brilliant ranger update) but no chance to report them.
GW2 balance:
A PvE player is supposed to avoid a 1-2 second 1 shotting aoe.
A WWW player is considered uncapable of avoiding a 5,75 second aoe for half his health.

It will .. if I’m not mistaken Gandara made around 60% (could be also 40%) of their points last season from stomps,
If you are in a close matchup every stomp counts.
This is usually done out of pure spite. Usually to take revenge for cowardly and dishonorable behavior.
This tactic only works when you side doesn’t have enough people to fill the map, as you’ll lose your slot. So it’s often done by those heavily outnumbered.
This would be solved by turning those about to be defeated while heavily outnumbered (all enemies around have defeated the little guy several times and none of them would get earn WXP from the kill) into a Spirit of Light or a Mist Walker so they can just get away. To discourage players from ganging up on small groups, and pick on someone their own size for a change.
Then, those that still do this while not being ganged up on by cowards would get a Dishonorable effect that makes them unable to go back to WvW for some time.
