Default Small arena exploit

Sometimes, i have all sounds off (cause i have neighbors and family trying to sleep) and i am on another tab when queued for arena. I check my nodiatis tab to find myself dead. I remember the rule of still getting tokens and rating if you "at least tried" and just click on the attack button even though its's not suddenly after the countdown. Win or lose, i still gain credit for "having tried"

Hitting attack right after the countdown but being too late is acceptable for 'having tried' but hitting attack when you've been AFK/dead for at least a minute is just plain freeloading.

Make it so you have like three seconds after the countdown to 'at least try' if you are instantly killed. With rush week coming up, this is an exploit to prevent.

Tested this out a couple times. I still gain participation credit for sitting idle in arena until i die and then hitting attack.

EDIT (after more testing); Yepp, hitting attack at any point after you are killed after sitting idle in arena will still give you full credits. Even sat through some wins without clicking anything and get no credits for participation. This proves that this is working to some extent
