Need some help here guys
DK2M kindly sent me a tanking strategy, however this PvP has been a nightmare so I'm obviously doing something wrong.
I beat all the seed teams fairly early on & a couple of weak teams then defeated the last seed team with loaner + Lv17 Ares & Lv1 Jug (both fully covered - does this make a difference?). Points total was 130ish
Left this for a while, got about 6 attacks & then attacked a strong team with loaner + 2 x Lv40 1 cover 3* & purposely lost.
Left for further 6 hours or so then climbed to approx. 330. Left a while longer climbed to 450 (staying between 30-50th place).
From 350 to 450 was largely weakish boosted Lthor (Lv130-160ish) + 2 lv 140's (hulks etc).
From 450 onwards never saw anything below Lv 200+ Lthor, XF & normally maxed top tier 3* (with some total maxed 270/270/249's in the mix)
A real struggle to get to 600 (only real strategy to beat these teams was Hulk + Patch (berserker rage) wait for hulk to recover - repeat.
In the last 1/2 hour of PvP obviously most of these teams have lined me up for retals & my score has plummeted back below 600. (this is 1st PvP in at least 9 months where been below 600).
As a side note I don't use shields so 650 is about the ceiling I can expect (cant afford the HP expenditure due to stupidly big roster).
Any help would be appreciated as this seem that the game is saying to me my natural level should be 450ish - having to attack stronger teams (with what amounts to a suicide bombing spree) ALL the time to get higher seems odd.
Sorry for length of post!0 -
If I had to wager a guess, tanking at the end of a season probably won't help lower your MMR much at this point, at least not enough to make a noticeable difference. They also just revamped how MMR works I thought in this latest patch (which I have yet to apply, v69 FTW!! lol), so previous strategies like tanking may be OBE at this point, however YMMV and I am just speculating at this point.0
-
I too, tried the tanking strategy D2KM (and others) have shared, with no noticeable difference... I did notice in the past several that if I went in 48ish hours before the event ended, I could get up to mid 700's before seeing a wall... This method does, however, require shields... I'm with you (now that I broke the 1k score barrier) I don't think I will do any sort of hopping... I am going into next season with the strategy that 8 hours before the event ends, go in, climb as high as possible & throw up an 8 hour shield... And be done with it... Depends on the feature character of course... Max character is easier to climb higher0

Are you guys experiencing the same thing though, ie from 430 points onwards only ever facing stronger teams?
Surely our rosters should be ahead of the curve.0 -

You will face stronger teams as your points climb... The method that works for me works because it's early enough in the tournament that most strong teams have not started yet... Once they do, I'm shielded0 -
From general forum reactions, it seems like they've reduced the value of tanking quite a bit (for quite a while now). Since MMR is going to be changed up pretty soon anyway, it's probably not worth the time commitment tanking at this point.0

Can someone in Ll1 enter in our document or sent to me the last score for pvp Lord of thunder. I was in early slice and missed the result this morning. Thanks also dont foget Ll2 score with the season score also.
Edit. Thanks to Scoregasms I have the score for this pvp.0 -
Great job team ! What a season.
Safely inside top 50 in season. Awesome job from everybody.
Great thanks to fellow commanders malorick & D2KM.
You guys lead by example, strong pve & pvp throughout the season, and
done a great job recruiting all those beasts haha.
Thanks for having me with you guys.0 -

It was a clash of titans between Mjmacka, D2KM and joker says hi but MJmacka win that triple threat fight by beating the current champ. Now, the question is can D2KM return after this or we see the rising of a new contender#1 with joker says hi. Stay tune for our next events to see what will happen!!!!

3) Special Award Achievement (“King of the King”) - Malorick continue to be the king of the pve with his fith win in a row, a complete season undefeated in pve. What else I can add?
4 Special Award Achievement (“Unleash the Beast”) to Scoregasms that was leading in the alliance and have unleashed the Beast in me, it was another good fight for the crown!
5) Special Award Achievement (“Stand Back! There's a Hurricane Comin' Through!?”) to antreas1911 who return in the top5 with a incredible performance and that was constantly in the top during the whole events.
6) Special Award Achievement (“What?”) to OCJ80 who didn’t see this coming and missed the top5, not easy to be in the big league, competition is strong among us. Continue your good work, you still have it.
7) We have played for an average per member of 127 561 pts, and had only 9 members that have play below our average, so better performance from everybody we really have a strong top 5 that have increase our average.

LL2 what'd we get for PVE, I had Checking Internet Connection this morning before work so I couldn't see.... t50??
There were 3 hours left when I went to bed and we were in like 28.0 -
First season completed with you guys.
First i want to thank my good friend Daransteele (AKA the fearsome bugman) who introduced me to this great alliance.
Then the two commanders for accepting me.
And lastly but not least every single member of L&L1 for their contribution to our great team and for keeping the in game chat and this thread alive with their comments.
As for season XI that begins in Thursday? Every battle will be something like this: "ή ταν ή επι τας" ΑΚΑ "with your shield or on it"0 -

Awesome!~ Thanks Trisul!!!
Good Job Everyone!!!!!0 -
Hello all LL2 members. I wanted to post this here as the game chat is terrible.
For next season - we're looking to put in place some very easy minimums. First off for PVP - we're looking at a minimum of 500 per event, plus the usual 1000ish in SIM. That should be attainable for everyone in the group. Just to be clear - this is a minimum that we're looking for. More points are - of course - appreciated!
Now for PVE: for events that are NOT 4* releases the minimum will be 150% of max progression. Most of us blow past that with days to spare.
For 4* release events, the minimum will be 200% of max progression. this is to eliminate the issues we ran into at the end of the Starlord PVE where we had to replace a couple members we didn't want to kick. Obtaining the new characters is necessary for the group for the following PVE, and doing 200% of progression should be enough to assure that.
As always - if anyone has any real life issues that will prevent them from playing, just let any of us know, and the rest of the group will pick up the slack. The biggest thing is communication.
Thanks - and any questions or issues - just PM us.0 -

And this right here is why every little point matters... that one last grind, that one last attempt at a node... one more before bed, etc. If each one of us had just put up 150 points fewer, we would have been 51st place. In an event where the final score for our alliance was 2.3 MILLION, you're talking a margin of victory of less than one tenth of one percent of our total score. That is a slim fraggin' margin, but I'll take it.0 -
Congrats LL2 on making T50! Though, I do feel bad for whoever ended up 51st, that has got to suuuuuck to miss out on a 4* cover by that slim a margin. Kudos for pulling it out, especially with the all the Merc activity I heard rumblings was going on near the end.0

Excellent work on the top 50 finish little sister. I know this one was hard. Everyone going for a 4*. Glad you hit it in the end. Each grind of that node is now worth it. Snickerdog and Donkey, sounds like you did what had to be done for the greater good. Excellent Commanding.
Just watching Malorick and Scoregasms battle it out for the pve crown is incredible. These two Juggernauts feed off each others score. I shudder to think what this next pve shall bring ....... hopefully the return to the top 5 for me at least0 -

I wish it was myself and Snick that did things... truth be told, it was Sherlock that took on the burden and did both the recruiting and the kicking for the mercs. That was a nasty position to be stuck in, but he took care of it. The commanders decided but he executed, and for that I say he gets the credit.
Thanks again, Sherlock. You were both a-hole and savior in the Starlord PvE. My apologies to those members that got cut; it was sudden and it was rude, but it was necessary.0
