Translation: if they don't tiny kitty us, we won't tiny kitty them. P.S. I realize you have a job to do and was glad to see your words not written in black color indicating this was not your personal opinion.

If we have to do that at 300 now then I better see a 3* cover at 600. This will just save us the 45 min of grinding boring teams to 700 and then face an actual challenge. They've changed progression rewards a lot in the past. Time for a change.

This is miles ahead of the old system in which the only people ever rewarded were the people that were way ahead and had huge 3* rosters. There is no wall of b.tinykitty for 2* players once you get up to 300-400 points. You should never have a fight you cannot take in PvP, going in should be a risk. This is like matchmaking in any competitive multiplayer game and at least for me its been amazing. PvP needs to go in this direction for sure. However, I'm guessing with this reaction it's not going to stick, such a shame. D3 should build on this so that vets dont get as **** as they've gotten here (from what I read and 2* transitional players (if it's the experience I'm getting for others like me) can actuallt compete.

I don't know how placement is going to turn out but so far it's not sounding like any 2*/transition guys are somehow able to sneak ahead, so everyone's still subject to the same difficulty.

For the record, I have a 46 character Roster with 6 characters at 153 (including CMags and Daken, who are buffed for this event,) and various other characters in levels 141 (incl Sentry,) 127 (incl X-Force,) and lower. My X-Force is 5/2/2, so I can't really rely on him. Top Node: terrylee2008 - Daken 280, Dr Doom 280, Sentry 280 (Real Levels 140) worth 28 points at 46 Left Node: FOAD - Daken 332, the Hood 332, Magneto 332 (Real Levels 166) worth 39 points at 212 Right Node: Hootnany - Sentry 174, Daken 332, Magneto 332 (Real levels 88 and 166) worth 25 points at 0 Um. Right. So I can probably take the top one - that's pretty much even with me, but the other two are going to mess me up pretty well. 153 and 166 are a pretty big difference, I think. I typically try to take one node before tanking - I may do that and report. The Lighting Rounds seem to be behaving in a similar fashion - giving me opponents with point totals that are all over the place but are really tough. I Do Not Like This Change So Far.
