Alliance BG rewards - where’s the radiance?

The alliance BG rewards are pretty dated at this point. Is it weird to anyone else that they convert alliance quest to radiance, alliance war to radiance, solo GC rewards to radiance, then they ignore the alliance BG rewards?

    Elder mark is now the worst currency and alliance bg rewards are mostly elder marks . Spend your elder marks collectively to get more elder marks and some small amount of trophy tokens 🤣

    Still seems like this needs to be revisited.

    If a war season is worth 75,000 radiance for being in the top 300, then what should a top-10% BG finish be?

    It's not weird to me.
    Those alliance BG ranks can be easily manipulated by players just losing a million matches or farming easy wins in lower tiers.
    I think most of the time the top alliances in those milestones don't even have any Celestial players.
    You can't incentivize point-farming by bad players with top radiance rewards.

    Since the update in BG alliance score, point farming is worth more in GC (double). If an alliance wants to spend all their elder marks ;oint farming in GC, to get a higher rank, let them do it. If they are point farming, I guaranteed you they are buying elder marks with units and that is what Kabam really wants players to do in the end. What's the issue here, nobody is point farming in VT track anymore. Not worth is since points in GC is almost double in points.

    Not this season. Kabam screwed up and points in VT are worth more than GC. They are flipped.

    They have correct that. I was waiting to get to GC to use my elder marks and heard about this issue. I checked 3 days ago and the scoring has been corrected. So I have been using my elder marks in GC only and the points are working as intended.

    Alliance battlegrounds event should just be scraped and the rewards moved to victory track

    You spend elder marks to get more points so you can get more elder marks, meaning elder marks has zero value

    It's just 30k trophy tokens that's left and it should be moved to victory track

    I'm all in favor of radiance for BG alliance rewards, but you have to make it skill-based.
    So something like the alliance gets points for each member who crosses thresholds like reaching GC, reaching 100 points in GC, reaching 200 points, etc.
    That way the top alliances who get the rewards won't be alliances full of point-farming mediocre or bad players.
