Has anyone noticed the point value on these has seem to have gone up?

Turned my game on and had a notification that I had picked up 23 points from one player. Unfortunately I reflexively closed it before I could see his team rating

Anyone else seeing this? Pretty cool change

  • Pretty sure you get (50-what they'd have got for winning) for winning a defense, which can indeed be a pretty big chunk.

    It's mainly because we're used to getting a successful defense after 1 try (so they had two more to try, but decided to yield instead). Now, it's as if they used all three tries and yielded.

    Also, don't know if it's the same for everybody else...but I've gotten a LOT more successful defenses in the last 24 hours. Must be around 7 or 8. Mainly in lightning rounds.
  • Yep, i joined best there is, fought a few matches to get to the 100 point level rewards. Now im sitting at 159 just through people losing matches to me. Lots more points its seems, getting around 20ish a time.

    Enjoy higher MMR afterwards!
  • You guys can still try to beat teams in 3 turns? My game doesn't even have that anymore. If I lose the first match, I lose points, all my characters are dead and I gotta wait a few hours to try again. What is going on?

    No, the 3x tries system has been removed. One shot now. Though, the point change for the loser isn't huge. I lost a couple and lost about 3-4 points. It seems the defender gets a bigger bonus though, which makes sense seeing the attacker has so many inherent advantages anyway.

    You still seem to get three tries when retaliating.
