Battlegrounds Play Match Challenge Cheese?

If you hop into a game of battlegrounds and forfeit the match at the start you can get played matches points for the challenge, is it okay if you do this or should you not be?

    Yeah but there is no real point in doing it as you can earn way more points by winning

    I mean, it is a valid way to do things. Not particularly sporting, but it doesn't break the rules that Kabam seems to set out. Far greater rewards lie in the event that focuses on BG wins, so if you care about those, it makes more sense to at least attempt to win fights.

    This mechanic will certainly be changed. But it works as of now.

    If people want to lose their rating, I’ll take the W.

    I have loads of energy expiring, did a massive sandbagging , dragged my rating from 1700+ to around 1400ish, got all the play points, then had series of easy wins, got all win points as well. This can be done currently as no ranked rewards are there. But yeah, its a massive energy waster, lol

    I did something similar and got 15 wins just from people forfeiting after seeing my roster 🤣🤣🤣

    I’ve struggled to be able to play someone on battlegrounds but I’m happy for the free wins :D and my roster isn’t even anything special either!

    Why would you want more points?

    The rating has zero benefits at this point. The only ones who are worried about losing rating in current status of bg are those with the overly inflated egos.

    I just did 2 matches and none of them counted towards the “play match” objective. I was only doing that horrible game mode for those solo objectives. All good, less I have to do now 😂
