    I like this idea because modders are predominantly free-to-play. Let’s support this idea and get the modders out of competitive gameplay!

    Ofc kabam could make this game free to all with no offers, only we’d have pop up adds every other fight and I’d quit it in a day. The appeal to me is that it doesn’t have any unlike most mobile games nowadays

    i could spent one million dollars on the game and bero, karate mike sweedah etc, would still beat me.
    at the same time they could all start a new f2p account and in 6months time have an account that would be capable and easily beat me who is a 7 year vet.
    where you sit is a combination of money and skill. yes.
    but skill is far more important than money

    if you wanna see a BGs style comp where money does not matter, make a 3* r 4* only comp.
    everyone can get and rank all 3* and 4*.
    then we can see who really has the skill.
    do you really think the very very very top players will change much?
    yes some people will go better and some will go worse.
    but someone would have to be a very special kind of player to beat the current top 10

    This has nothing to do with Kabam needing money. The system you suggested did ultimately flawed from the beginning and would not work nor make both parties happy. BG incentivizes roster diversity and knowledge of champions, one of which money can help with, the other is experience.

    Separating BG into spenders vs non would just mean non spender BG would get a fraction of the BG rewards that are currently seen. Spending is always going to provide certain advantages. There’s nothing saying a FTP can’t get close to the top, it just may take harder work and grinding in order to get there.

    FTPs just can't get to the top bro, not after 4th of July deals

    I have put in many hours on this season and I'm struggling to get out of arcane.

    And I rather to have 70% of good rewards pool than to have 30% of great rewards pool
    I know a few F2P in Celest 5 :)
    But can you give me 10 F2Ps in celest at all ? The answer is no my friend
    "Ah yes, checkmate, you have proven FTP are able to make it to Celestial but you forgot that your argument is completely invalid unless most of Celestial is FTP."

    To OP, this isn't going to get anyone to support your argument especially when you move the goalposts like this. Take your L and move on.
    My intention was to prove that the top is mainly for whales and that F2P going against almost impossible odds isn't sportsmanlike

    And what's the matter the you guys just trying to find errors in comments to "checkmate" others ? And quantum most seasons ain't L my friend but the fact is that I need to work ×4 times the spenders is what gets me
    Like I said, you need to work harder because you don’t spend. That’s how it works my friend. We aren’t finding errors, more just pointing out obvious flaws. Furthermore being a spender or ftp doesn’t carry skill. I’ve matched plenty of good and bad players with all sizes of accounts. You can win any match as long as it’s somewhat fair and you outplay them.
    The "somewhat fair" is what gets me, for example how can I expect my R3 is withstand R2 7* without getting nuked in 20seconds ? It's the unfair power level that spenders bring to the table, and some of them are really good players which makes it worse for FTP
    What would you do when you start getting out rostered in the FTP circuit? Start asking for roster based matchmaking again? There will always be rosters that outclass rosters in each tier.
    Would totally except it cuz I would know that this person worked haaaaaard for this roster and didn't use shortcuts
    That’s not fair to say people who spend didn’t work hard and took shortcuts
    Dude 4th of July deals gave rewards we didn't obtain for 7 years work what are you talking about
    One should stop referring to playing a game out of their own choice (and provided for free) as work. If the game is no longer enjoyable, consider taking a break.

    Otherwise, you'll find that the Cyber Weekend deals will give rewards you didn't have for 7.5 years of work and July 4th deals next year will have items you couldn't get for 8 years.

    Then you just have newer players complain that vets have all maxed 3 and 4*

    F2Ps are very much able to make it to GC, and spending (bigger rosters) doesn't equate to high skill.

    Greetings to kabam and everyone In the forums

    Before BGs were a thing I couldn't care less about whales and spenders getting all the goodies cuz I didn't get in (real time face to face with them) and I actually loved the fact that they payed for the game we all love

    I have a suggestion that I'm sure will satisfy both segments of mcoc because right now the gap is felt more than ever when the Battlegrounds became a thing and people buy everything just to bully everyone not spending and that's a fact !

    My suggestion is to have two matchmaking systems for BGs

    1 for spenders and whales and basically everyone that spent a dime on this game is to battle each other in their own separate matchmaking and of course have bigger rewards (but not that big in order to shorten the (FTPs and spenders gab) in due time

    2 A second matchmaking system designed exclusively for FTPs where only FTPs face each other so that only (hard work) is the difference between and have a smaller rewards pool but not humongous difference just like the way kabam sees unjustly fair !!

    Bottom line you need to do something to this fiasco cuz it's only gonna get worse if nothing is done

    I wish to hear your take on this kabam cuz you never said anything regarding this topic despite the fact that games economy is the center of games as service and your silence is incredibly not appreciated

    Before kabam lawyers and spenders jump this post I told you that I understand kabam needs money and have no dispute with you

    Yeah…nah

    From the title it feels like asking Kabam to establish a society with housing and facilities for FTP community to lead a peaceful life

    I am FTP and for me Battlegrounds is completely random . This time I made it to Galdiator Circuit while using only a single shield , other times I barley make it to diamond while using over a dozen shields . I don’t really care that much . At the end of the day I still get nice resources
