First time in BG GC, doubts

rcm2017

How does it work in GC? No medals in GC? Is it one win and you move to uru ll from uru lll? Asking coz i dont see those medal place holders in GC. Also how many wins are needed for GC rewards qualification?

You gain points for winning and lose points for losing. So moving up ranks depends on how many people are above you and how many points they have. A single match win or lose will get you the bottom gc rewards

Squammo

One fight win or lose will qualify you for rewards. From here on out you get points for winning and lose points for lost matches. Climb brackets by increasing your points. Checking the leaderboard will tell you what’s needed. This time around it’s pretty crazy points wise by the looks of it.

Oh so very different. Just tried my fitst match and lost it...lol, bleeds and regens and stuff, yikes!!!

Just happy to be in GC, a personal milestone to get in to GC in the unstoppable VT meta...lol

You will probably have to do 10+ victories in a row now to climb from uru 3 to uru 2.

If I was bitter, I'd say you don't go up. You manage one in five Wins because everyone and their Alts who have been tanking all Season are on their way up, while you struggle with unforgiving AI, OP Nodes, and a new scoring metric that values Health remaining over anything else.
Since I'm not bitter, I'll just point out it's based on Points.

Also have a GC noob question about points.

If you gain/lose 15 points for using energy, is it gain/lose 90 for elder marks?

EM and energy give the same amount of points for standing in GC. Just like how they give the same amount of medals too in VT

Just keep winning matches and get a high score of yours. I may feel like around a 100 points is great because it is your first time only. U get the rewards of the tier in which u end the season at

I've had a real run of easy games lately, disregarding the multiple infiniteoading screens and disconnects I've had since the update (think it's a pre-fight issue) only seems to happen with OS, HT and Abs Man.

Without the disconnects I'd comfortably be back in arcane but it's a real mixed bag, potatoes or sweaty whales.

Objectively False. More points are allotted to defender health taken. In fact it's double the amount of points. So defender Health removed is valued above all else. Time has least priority. That is the correct statement

Everyone played by the same rules and scoring. This system rewards skill more, which is why some don't like it.
