AW season 54 scoring

What are people’s thoughts on the reduction from 30k win bonus to only 5k win bonus?

It looks like it will be incredibly difficult to move ranks at this point. For reference, my ally finished plat5, rank 149 last season. After winning the first 3 wars for this season (tier 4 map), we are currently plat5 rank 153. That doesn’t make sense to me!

Agreed, it will be very difficult to move up and down the ladder. That's why I complained about it when it was announced. It benefits people at the top for sure.

Yeah what is going on we have never been in plat 5 even after being in tier 4 wars. This is some messed up ****. Did all of a sudden 1000 more alliances start trying hard in war this don’t make any sense lol. What a freaking joke Kabam is.

Thought you quit.

This issue needs to be addressed. Alliances will have to go 12 and 0 to make any slight progress in standings. There is no point to play war anymore.

Better figure out how to kill that Red Skull quick man...

Why don't y'all wait the entire season to see if you move up or down and how quickly you do. Seems more people come on here to complain about a change and don't give it time.

As was mentioned in other threads, your WarRating determines your Multiplier Tier.

So winning, increasing your WR, which can bump you up to higher Multiplier during the season.
Which then would lead to more points, and potential higher Standings.

But, yes, if you are basically in the same Multiplier Tier (or 2) the entire time, you pretty much have a predetermined Standings bracket in which you’ll end up.
(I was noticing this already the last time a long time ago, when they lowered it down from the original 50,000)

Showing our finish from last season at rank 149 plat5, with our 3 wins to start this season, and our current rank of 153 for plat5. That is incredibly harsh and has our entire ally feeling like AW is not worth it. Sucks.

Why do you need 9 full wars of data to see how the scoring is affecting ranks? Seems pretty clear after 3 wars, no?

Yeah it's a joke. We're T1 and run two BGs, really screws us.

Only 2 BG wars ??
Even before this new Win Bonus change, weren’t you giving up a huge amount of Season Points by not running 3 BG ?
Even if you might not have as good of Win/Loss ratio as you do only running 2 BG ?

I'm positive they said that one of the motivators was removing the stress/awful feeling of dropping a death or two and that costing your alliance the victory points, but the individual victories mean less so the value of losing your attack bonus per fight is more important now than it was, not sure Kabam are hitting their mark in that sense.

Ultimately it should mean the alliances that fight cleaner more consistently come out on top like they always have, it probably just shakes up the middle of the pack rankings more than anything? I war in gold 1/2 and it's still common to see 100+ deaths per war, there's a lot of room of other alliances to do better and get rewarded for it.

Okay, this is wild. So we win our first 3 wars and drop from plat5 (rank 149) to plat5 (rank 153)…then we lost our 4th war and dropped all the way from plat5 (rank 153) to plat6 (rank 30). How in the hell!!!
