Blade Piece in BG rewards is not fair

NW2

Any other game mode I can use energy to practice and retry paths and use potions and revives. In battlegrounds if I get matched with a better player or a bigger account I have zero chance. I might grind the entire month and not make it through.

Not to mention BGs makes me hate the game bc of the matchups and hopelessness and spending 15 minutes to make no progress or worse lose progress.

Bc I don’t play BGs I have to come all the way from gold 4 to GC and it’s not any easier at the lower levels
Bc a bunch of big accounts that hate BGs are all starting in the lower levels too but also playing now to get the piece.

Putting the last Blade piece in BGs is the absolute worst. Please make it available somewhere else besides behind a unit pay wall

I agree with this.

Other modes let us retry and improve, but in Battlegrounds, bad matchmaking means you often have no chance. It feels like wasted time with little or no progress.

Starting from Gold 4 is already a grind, and strong accounts in lower tiers make it worse.

Locking the Blade piece behind BGs is frustrating—please make it available in other game modes too.

I'm currently in Vib 3, and the last two people I've matched have had about half of their decks with r3. The higher I've gone, the more r3s I've seen for some reason. Just keep going

Elder players should for me personally start at Vibranium 5, like it gets honestly resentful having to start back at diamond

Even Vib 5 feels too low tbh. It should start at Vib 5 and go higher depending on your finishing bracket in GC.

when was this game ever fair? Maybe in 2014

Worst season ever.

update, as expected this is not going well, I decided I was going to try for this champ, the first stellar forged I thought I had a chance at so I worked hard to get the other pieces and feel like I’m pot committed to try for the last piece.
I had almost 9000 elder marks at the start of the season and sadly I may not have enough to get to GC.

I’m so frustrated, one step forward and two steps back. This is an awful player experience.

Same thing I said, this is terrible. Locking the piece behind battleground, that is absolutely dreadful, it's the worst, terrible grind, that at the end if you lose you get nothing, wasted 5minutes for no reason, I 8/10 avoid it but since I'm forced I was trying. But then they change the scoring tallying, which from a decision perspective is head scratching. As a player is the most frustrating, the way you end up losing at times, even when you win, sometimes, I feel guilty because you know you should've lost but tis how the scores are tallied. Anyway, I hope all this complaining are noticed and somethings changed.

I'm matched against Elders in every matchup and I win surprisingly

Probably bcos old ppl are too slow for this meta, every second counts now

Stuck in platinum 1 for 15 matches and no way to predict how many more matches it will take to progress. I don’t understand how kabam can be so out of touch with their player base. Uninstalled the game, dint make me feel any better though, I wished for a better outcome than that

Yes this is terrible. I quite literally i dont know anyone in this game who is enjoying this at the moment. Let me sum it up. I go up against people who have spent tons of money and been on the game way longer. I have no chance. Half my roster is made up of 6 stars going up against rosters with rank 5 and the rest rank 4 7 stars. For a company to be so out of touch with their player base really blows my mind. I turned off my sumoner sigil. I am no longer willing to give this company money. Please kabam respect our time. Please use common sense. I know for 100% fact you knew the reaction of BGs as of late. To force your casual player base to go up against all competitive players turns out to be completley unfair. I would imagine you lose even more of your casual player base. I for one am close to uninstalling the game again. Pro tip. Make the game mode player based match making only. Even if this means plat going up against gold. At least make sure they have similar rosters. Anything else doesn't make sense. One more thing I challenge you kabam to take my account and complete the gladiator circuit and yo
