Looking on the bright side, if this sharding **** keeps up I'm going to be saving a lot of HP this season. Because tinykitty season rewards and if I don't need the covers I'm not going to bother shielding to get involved in the high score club's bloodbath. Grab my HP at 800, maybe a lottery ticket at 900 if I feel like it, and call it a day.

I was planning on taking this event easy, starting late and casually getting top 25 as I only need the black cover. But instead I am put into the same death bracket and now I think it is going to be a bloodbath for the top 25 let alone the top 10.

Now I know that one day I'll have to face the 166's eventually but at the current moment I can't compete with them and I don't see how I can go any further then 500 because of the matches I'm being offered. Is this happening to anyone else?

So, yes, apparently they have tinkered with MMR again - I'm one of these 166s teams that beat on you since you're worth juicy points when you're at 500 and I'm just starting my climb. Nothing much to do for you except tank or let those losses accumulate naturally in events you don't care about, I'm afraid. Sucks, I know :S

Darn I am unfamiliar. Well guess it keeps me some what under the radar that way. Man this sharding is really screwy. I can not get a match worth over 10 pts. have used 2.5k iso searching
