Allow Battleground Round Point Accumulation

Two common reasons for not playing BG are
1) Being out matched in account size
2) Frustration of losing close matches
I propose the point scored in a round be redeemable either by accumulating towards season rewards or converted into something else.
E.g. a match is lost
Round one 49,000 -50,000 😢
Round two 50,000 - 49000 🙂
Round three 49,000 - 50,000 😢
But in this case the losing side has accumulated 148,000 points
Of course the winner also has 149,000 points too
Also consider bonus points for competition above weight class
So 7* rank 2 vs 7*.rank 2 is even with no modifications and
But 6* rank 4 vs 7* rank 2 means the weaker side receives a percentage bonus 40,000 x 1.10
This lessen the dread of facing Godzilla. You will still lose the match but you will get more points towards…
Currently one can lose 10 straight matches with nothing to show (elders marks gone and energy depleted 🤬) and seriouly think about uninstalling
But with a few changes that same summoner could half close 1,500,000 points and be happy with the effort 😀
Actually maybe more if they have been continually over matched,
Well just 2 cents, be well

I'm not a fan of the multiplier for lower ranks, as it would likely incentivize against ranking up your champs. If it's detrimental to improve your roster, all incentive to play the game is gone, because what use are rewards that make you do worse?
I’m in a family of alliances with well over a hundred and fifty total members, maybe 20 are in BG. Everyone thinks we crazy for doing it.
Other than rude sarcastic remarks do you have any constructive to add?
This is why I mostly stay off the forums, too much juvenile toxicity.
Anyway have a wonderful day. 🙄
Also there are times where you have to strategize a throwaway round.
I’m curious, what is your handle in the game?
I’m Asmondena in game m look me up, who exactly are you?
What I propose would not change a thing regarding who wins or loses matches!
It only rewards both players for skill level and time!
Is English your second language?
Rewards for match points? What is this your 1st BG season?
How does this rewards for point season fit in with the matchmaking safe zone and seeding?
How does a match forfeited on round 1 or 2 get computed?
What it does do is make how well each player performs count for something.
Rather than in losing an extremely close match and just losing time in your life, now those points each player achieves in each round will accumulate towards something eventually.
Everyone is ncentivize to try as hard as he or she can even in a probably loss.
Other than that, everything is exactly as it is currently.
Yeah that is not exploitable at all.
Also the point modifier for beating bigger champions or smaller lol..so easy to exploit by sandbagging while farming.
The points you score in a round is based on:
1) How much health you have remaining at the end of the round
2) How little health if not knocked out the defender has
3) How fast you were able to achieve the above
All that I am proposing is that playing well should mean something as opposed to what it means currently which is nothing.
1) Rather people forfeiting when they see it is a loss, they will play hard for whatever points (see above) they can get.
2) Rather than people only playing when the every two day 3 match participation event is on, they play like arena because playing and doing well even in a lost is helpful.
3) People who are already doing well in BG will do even better as they obviously will have more points than the people they are beating and moving up tiers as they already are.
Energy has zero to do with your score and pausing lowers your score!
I described a way of farming points that is against sportmanship behavior...
Its perfectly doable. The problem is that you didn't think about it and it doesn't fit within your brillian proposal
There your first point totally invalidated - match with big account.
Second - BG loss doesn't mean much ,u can play next and win .close loss mean u lost by skill or by ai or your opponent played better.
& If u change your game circle u will find many play BGs if u don't believe just score 300k in solo - your rank will be around 15k-20k . 20k players are playing.
I am doing fine, my goal is for others to do better to keep the game alive.
I have been playing since 2017 and finding recruits at any level was as easy as getting wet after fall off a boat. Now there are no new players, just veterans slowly leaving.
But hey whatever happens happens, be well.
