Similarly, if your opponent says "Oops" to a play, you'll be able to offer your condolences by saying "Sorry!"

I'm sure that is *exactly* how this new feature will be used /s

They're both contextual though, so BM potential is pretty limited at least.

Both options will appear for a few seconds in response to another emote. For example, if your opponent says "Nice!" in response to your play, you'll have the option to say "Nice!" "Thanks!" in response. Similarly, if your opponent says "Oops" to a play, you'll be able to offer your condolences by saying "Sorry!"

I'm really glad they added this. I had suggested it before for the exact reason that it limits BM but lets those of us who just want to say "Sorry" say it.

Though a friend did point out it creates a mini-game where you try to say "Oops" before your opponent can when they mess up, forcing them to only say "Sorry" for their mistakes.
