How to Prevent Quits and Disconnects

And in the process, maybe get the 50 win achievement.

Pre-Match Preparations

Make sure you do not join a noob lobby as those players are the most likely to quit. Instead, choosing a decently populated lobby with seemingly experienced players will yield the best results.

Turn 1

Obviously a lot of players are gonna get tilted if you parry or gain the advantage in any way on turn 1. The trick here is to make an intentionally bad move in a way that does not put you in too much of a disadvantage. Use DI in early game and let the player hit you or something.

Mid-Game Tip

After turn 1, try your best to get out of being combo'd (using DI or burst). Play as you normally would with only one rule: Let them burst. Never try to parry or dodge burst no matter how easy it is to read. You have to make them think they have a chance at coming back, not utterly destroy them. Especially do not read a burst during the late game.
Another tip I would recommend is probably to lower your health bar a bit more (at least half). Make it seem like a close game.

End Game/Finishing

This is probably the toughest part of the match, as your opponent can quit at any time if they feel they are going to lose. One thing I would suggest is that you be a good sport toward your opponent as that makes them less inclined to leave. However, even with all the techniques I have told you, there is still a chance of your opponent quitting/disconnecting. This just decreases the chances of that.

Beware everyone, there is a gaypist by the name Korbin Kyle and he's deleting his comments to cover his tracks, his steam name is Dreadnought which he will likely change, he's trying to turn more innocent people into gaypists, stay away from this delusional man and stay safe.

i had people quit on me for landing mana strikes and one time by parrying an air punch. im not even good at wizard.

frankly, disconnect should count for the achievement. Beating someone hard enough that they DC is a win. Just look at the RAGE QUIT achievement

should be a step that says "don't use 1000 papercuts"

Get on good terms with your opponent. Compliment them if they made a good move :)

It truly speaks to what a strange fighter YOMIHustle is, that we have community guides on how to AVOID driving people off by dogstomping them into paste with superior info and telling them to cope/learn about it.
I'm into it, good on ya. Prioritizing sportsmanship and humanizing the competition, leaning into kayfabe or just generally putting on a good show for all involved.

i bought the game yesterday and have played 5 matches 2 of which ended in the other person rage quitting because i read their burst and parried it (tip: don't burst straight away when its available make it a mind game otherwise its very easy to parry)

A quick note for people who make it a habit of quitting matches: If you lose a match, you'll be better equipped and more experienced for your next match. It's all just part of the game.
