BG Point Farming engaged…

Gonna be rampant in VC with T7B and a Titan out there. Just to be clear, no rule against it anymore correct?

That was my whole point GW, the event itself is based on who has more time, more energy refills and elder marks. It has nothing to do with playing to win. Even worse there is an actual rank reward on it. The event itself skews the idea of BGs itself.

Lets also be honest, if everyone went all out, sweaty palms and heavy breathing mode on it, there are accounts that wouldn't even be able to reach half of the milestones unless they spent a ridiculous ammount of units on energy packs and EMs. Imagine those accounts that claim losing 20 matches in a row trying to farm those points.

didn’t you say people are getting less rewards? Now you are saying they are pushed higher than intended. You seem to be confused on what

you are right. You didn’t say less. But you said they are not getting better rewards. Even though they are being pushed higher than intended according to you, they are not getting better rewards.

I said you're pushing them up to where they don't belong. They get Rewards, sure. Rewards they didn't earn, and eventually more Rewards than they should based on their ability. Then when they plateau, they're higher than they should be, and they can't compete. Which isn't a problem for the people who gave them a pass because they can then bash them about when they decide to make their push to the GC.

Meanwhile next Season, they start higher than they normally do, and they get bashed about again.

oh no!!,..heaven forbid they get a bit of a boost and get better rewards for a whole one season of battlegrounds.

Then maybe they hit a wall and get a taste of what they need to do build a roster that may eventually be able to compete at that level.

…..🤔,.,sure sounds like a win win to me.

Seriously the amount of arguments you make while no one else including the mods are in a twist about it,..you should consider changing your forums name to “clowned wisdom”

GroundedWisdom

Sure. You want the Rewards and it's easier to get them, so it's a win for everyone. No negative effects at all. I'd rather people just say they don't care than try to conflate an excuse. Let alone "The Mods didn't respond so we can do what we want.".

Either way this conversation is getting nowhere, so let's agree to disagree. I've made my points.

Helping other players by forfeit, using lower star champs or lower effort (AFK) was at one time called "Santa-baging".

Kabam stated it was not against TOS.

So ... Santa is coming too town in October!

Ho ho ho

I used the same argument of "getting rewards that they don't deserve" before they changed it to a 2 coin 1 coin system and I was heavily opposed to it. Funny how your perspective of a competition changes after you get what you want.

The difference is they stopped using Solo Milestones and introduced Radiance and the rating degradation system, so there was less incentive to do it. Now the Rewards are more motivation to do it.

I know it's only one Season, so it's not a major problem. It's the principle I'm talking about.

So they will get some radiance... What is the big deal? People got compensation they didn't deserve for issues that didn't even affect them. Buddy of mine hasnt played in 2 months and got the 2 titan comp.… Then they should turn off the 2 coin system because rafiance was introduced. You can't advocate for fair rewards and fair competition when losing only punishes half way.

The Rewards aren't the bigger issue for me. I mean, of course I care about game balance, but I'm not put off by people getting them. It's really the adverse effects on the system that concern me more. In any case, it is what it is.

I get it; but the downside is an adverse result on the next season. Next season won't have an event and extra rewards attached so it probably won't matter for most.

I second this. Summoners are in a happy mood cause winning cures all…….

i think the people who usually complain about matchmaking are just auto piloting BGs and claiming the milestones.

So I finally face a Valiant account that was farming points. It was a Valiant account that started only 5 stars at Rank 1 in GC. So all these comments about farming didn't help me out since I played over 50 matches and only faced one account that was farming. How is this an issue if the odds of facing this farming accounts are such a small percentage. Why are we arguing against something that rarely happens. @GroundedWisdom is arguing against all to proctect the 1% farmers helping others out. This makes little sense to me.
