Some will disagree, and that's their choice. While our Alliance will continue trying to learn and overcome the challenges as is, not one of us is blind to what's happening. Just at the point of acceptance is all. The likelihood anything will change is seemingly slim. That is, unless the majority step it up on beating that proverbial dead horse (seemingly so). I'm hoping the data showing the many Alliances that ran into walls helps the case. It's indeed a difficult map once you step into Challenger and beyond. Not to mention the need for 9 players to advance out of section 1. It's crazy. I guess only time will tell.
I was more asking for input from other players in similar alliances and situations, not some "get good" nonsense answer with a backhand. Thanks though.
it is not a matter of "got really bad overnight" This is the fallacy that you keep telling yourself. it is a matter of things are different now and you need to learn to adapt, or just complain.
I never took a swipe at your skills, only your logic, any perceived swipe is 100% in your own mind, everything after that is just a strawman.
Could not see the spending of resources for pillow hand characters that are only good for AI defense in AW.
Left that alliance and went to one that just does AQ.
That’s your personal experience and clearly from the feedback on this thread and the main thread and other players at the top, it’s not a majority opinion. Every comment you’re making reeks of elitism, where I just asked if anyone else was having the same ratio since the changes.
“it is not a matter of "got really bad overnight" This is the fallacy that you keep telling yourself. it is a matter of things are different now and you need to learn to adapt, or just complain.”
I literally didn’t say that. Read my response again. I was making the point that a group strong enough to make it through multiple seasons in platinum doesn’t suddenly get horrible overnight. Thereby proving the point that the difficulty is tuned too much in the wrong direction, and the exact opposite of what was communicated to us by the game team before the changes. There’s also a difference between giving feedback on the forum on this to the game team and complaining. I’m speaking for 30 people who all play at this level on our experience. For you to snipe at me yet again and insinuate were just complaining and bad at our skills is unnecessary and not helpful to this conversation.
“I never took a swipe at your skills, only your logic, any perceived swipe is 100% in your own mind, everything after that is just a strawman.”
Your first comment was literally saying we didn’t have the skills to do this now. That’s not a straw man, it’s an insult and based on absolutely nothing.
I’ve shared our experience, it would be lovely to be able to post this on the forum without having someone from the “Get Gud” brigade immediately jumping on us. I asked for others similar experience. If you guys are having no trouble at all and think you’ll be fine when the season starts, awesome. But you can stop jumping on others who don’t feel the same way. And empirically there’s more on that side of this than saying anything like you are.
Is my roster diverse enough or do I have the ability to rank up new champs quickly enough to make these adjustments? For the vast majority of players, the answer is no. T5B and T2A are not plentiful enough for players to simply plug and play an array of R4+ champs at the drop of a hat. Even my account with over 820k rating and a dozen R4+ champs struggles to meet the utility requirements to make these adjustments.
I will also add my name to the list of semi-retired players. Used to be in a Gold1/Plat3 ally, didn't like the stress so I dropped down to a 5x5 Gold 2 group. Got sick of AQ so I dropped again to an ally that only runs 1-2 BGs of Map 3 and AW. It seems that's all Kabam actually does. Put together theoretical node and map combos with the theory that the player base has the full use of every champ.
Kabam: "These buffs would make a champ like Moonknight really useful on defense."
Also Kabam: "What do you mean you don't have Cyclops ranked up to counter this new Moonknight defender?"
