Re: celestial players, tell us the keys to hitting celestial
As a disclaimer, I spend more time in Mysterium than Celestial, but here's some things to keep in mind.
In order to do well, you need to know how every champ works defensively, and how every champ in your deck works offensively. You don't want to be stuck in a situation where you throw a match because you don't know how to dex a new special, or were forced into using an attacker you aren't familiar with. On top of that, it's important to learn exactly how good the various matchups are. That varies a lot based on the meta, so the best way is by noting not only how the fights you take feel, but paying attention to how your opponent's fights go. Keep in mind that the first 3 weeks really don't matter for final placement, so use those as an opportunity to try things out. Once you get to the point where you know what to expect out of most matchups you can plan your placements better; if you know you have a 50k fight you can afford to place a defender that's going to give them a 48k and probably save something better for a future round. That takes a lot of time and practice, but it's a big part of playing at the highest levels.
As for your question about how much to play, generally the more the better. You asked what would happen with a 52% win rate, and the answer is that you overall increase. If you look at a GC match with equal rating, you'll notice that the winner gets one more point than the loser loses. This means that with even an exactly 50% win rate and roughly equal matches, you'll slowly gain points over time. The hard part is maintaining that 50% as you get higher and higher. If it's near the end of the season you usually want to play until you get a lucky string of wins, then call it quits.
Many high level battlegrounds players stream, and it's one of the best ways to learn fights without doing them yourself. The streams tend to also attract their peers, and most are happy to talk about strategy or specific champs. If you're serious about getting better, regularly tuning in to a variety of streamers is a great way to learn more

Re: How much monetization is too much?
For all the dev suckers out they’re sure they can charge and us F2Ps won’t spend it’s a company and they DO have to charge sure but it’s HOW they charge. It’s like a class war that even the mega whales grow tired of. Go ahead make deals they need to after all! But don’t crush the game with them ( charging insane prices for insane champs, starving the causal/F2Ps, and ruining events with basically paywalls)

Re: World’s first R4 7* iHULK?
Very nice, mine is going up whenever I get one more catalyst for him. He’s such a wonderful champI almost didn't recognize you. Why you changed the PFP ? iHulk is no more your top favorite champ?
Re: Whom to upgrade guys?
Herc, Doom, Sinister, Hulkling, BRB, AA,
TBH your entire have almost all great champs which will be useful till act 8 as well

Re: R4 science advice
Not crazy on defense but crazy on attack.his dps comes from power stings so extra rank would help you to defeat enemies wayy faster, decent stall in defense if opponent doesn't have counterSpiderham better than all these guysI’ve read a lot of comments about that. Is he that crazy on defense in BG as well? I mean, I get he is good but THAT insanely good?
celestial players, tell us the keys to hitting celestial
i don't want to hear anyone complain about f2p or spending. this is not about rosters or rankups.
if any celestials read this, please give us any advice.
what do you have to put in to hit celestial?
- do you learn every champ that gets released from top to bottom?
- each meta is different. do you run the final GC meta in the offseason nonstop many hours a day so you know what works and doesn't?
- there are secret tricks to get faster times that most 5 hit combo players don't know, how do you figure them out?
- in season, how many GC matches do you run? 50? 100? 200? do you keep going until you hit your goal?
- can high ranks be actually farmed? ie. if you win 52% of the time, can you play enough rounds to reach your goal?
- do you figure out metas by yourself or is it a group process where the best players get in a group chat and talk about it?
-what works and what doesn't?
thanks!
