NEW AW Season 48 - War #7 Gameplan - Reward Tier Bump

MCOC Team · April 3

Hi Summoners,

Here with another update for AW:

Previously we made the decision to omit War 7 from the current season's scoring. Due to the unforeseen impact this would have on the top alliances in this competitive mode, our team has decided to revert this decision. While we made the initial decision to set things right, believing no alliance should lose due to a clerical error, this had serious ramifications at the top of the leaderboard.

We understand this has been a messy season and the handling of War 7 will cause further friction. As a result, the team has made the decision to bump every alliance one reward tier at the end of the season. As a result, all Masters alliances will receive 7-Star Scarlet Witch.

As a result of this change, reward payout may be delayed from the normal timeline. Please have patience as we try to make this adjustment to compensate impacted Alliances, and remain in your current Alliance until the season completes.

It is worth reminding you all, this reward tier bump is coming in addition to the previously mentioned compensation for difficulties in this season.

Thank you for your patience.

Finally listening to us players... now it's too bad the damage to some alliances was already dealt with people getting sick of the game mode and retiring...

Great stuff! 🙌🏽
Now get ready to do the same with BG S17 week 3-4 meta 😂

It’s a shame that it took what it did to get here… first step in the right direction at least. Still can’t fathom what the intended player experience was meant to be here

Soslayan9 · April 3

This is all nice and well but doesn’t change the fact that most of our opponents still don’t care about diversity and we are still facing multiple bullseyes, KMs, kingpins ,Adam W, Zemos etc… and having an absolutely miserable time.

At first we thought no one had time to change their defence so fair, but clearly this is deliberate and still very much torture.

All this just so that we can hang on to our tier which obviously is not even on the radar.

War #10 is a loss. 15 defenders not placed.

PT_99 · April 4

Any master Alliances have a last minute opening? 😀

CHuck_fINA · April 4

This is much better compensation, thank you. But what about some changes to how you test these tactics before release? I'm sure many of us would rather have a challenging yet balanced war season than keep going through this.

this.

this compensation will go a long way to making players whole and is very much appreciated, but please address the difficulty of globals going forward so it never gets to this point.

i know the global was nerfed a bit, but with blacklists being a thing and the tags being as restrictive as they are, will finding proper counters be a problem next season? 5 banned global attackers is a lot and officers are already finding it difficult in assigning some fights.

Sorry for acting like a fool but does this mean a gold 2 alliance will get the gold 1 rewards?

SecondSkriller · April 4

I don’t mind a messy season if it means more rewards.

Shinyyoungster · April 4

It does fella. Assuming the finishing placement at season end is G2, G1 rewards will be received.

IvarTheBoneless · April 4

Very happy with this change. Very sad our alliance went from plat1 to plat2. It is what it is tho

Kamerary · April 4

excellent 7 you don’t think about the war...ok. What if she downgraded our category? like ok? From 3 to 4...and this big difference is 4.5 coefficient or 6. Alliances that received advantages thanks to this will also receive an increase in rank rewards. cool you think. We should be in platinum 3 right now, but we definitely won’t get out of platinum 4 with your diversity rule and loss of category, thanks to the Cubs. and also the search for the enemy became 25-35 stronger than our alliance consistently (I’ll attach screenshots), but there was an error of 1-5 rating like ours. Pu skill has been completely disabled, a couple of people in the war cannot enter the battle at all, the attack bonus is loading and lost, the domino is completely broken when it is hit on a block, it accumulates energy. the season was a success, roughly speaking, there is no compensation...can I have one point of compensation from winter pain? This is for me the best compensation or task to get it.

por todos los errores que se han presentado en guerra creo que ya seria mas justo que compensaran con 2 niveles de compensación encima del rango en que terminemos, de esa manera ustedes como equipo le pondrán mas empeño en corregir los errores antes de iniciar guerras.

sigo creyendo que la compensación debe ser mayor que esa que están ofreciendo.

saludos.
