    Thank you for an update. Will appreciate if you will inform us when/if it flips.
    I will try to jump into it for greenflag.png Iron Fist and HP. (2* to 3* level transitioning player)
    I will probably land in some "middle", not veteran, bracket like the last time but gambling can be fun too icon_e_wink.gif

    Any hope for slice 4 or 5? Both reported at 830+ with more than 12 hours left. A late surge might push one or both up to 1k. . .

    Slice 4 still isn't full yet with less than 8 hours left... Right now it's 883 players. I will keep watching it.

    Shard 4 on 925 with 4:30 to go, pdk01 leading the way on 63205. Unlikely to flip but you could get bloody lucky at the death.

    If you're still holding out, S4v is at 987 with 95 minutes to go. I'll try to post if it flips.

    Edit: Bracket finally hit 1000 with still an hour to go. Go crazy!

    Thanks for the tip. Joined at 61 with 55 minutes left. Ground for an hour and finished 61 with 9900ish points. Top ten all 15k. Not sure where their extra 5k came from. That's impressive grinding.

    Thank you.
    Ended with about 130 players - t10 vet of the vets. Rosters full of champions 4* and 5* icon_lol.gif
    Neck to neck, hardcore alliances skirmish.
    For those interested I think it would be easier to make more than t100 by playing normally.
    But I wanted something smaller. There will be time for 4* grinding in a few months icon_cool.gif
    (Virtual) beer for you!

    I sort of disagree. Top 10/top 20 might be harder this way, but top 100 is much easier. Most people stop grinding once top 20 is clearly impossible, so there's not too much movement at the end unless the slice is really short (e.g. 20 minutes to an hour). But if it's that short, then your total commitment to the event is just an hour, which is a huge advantage over everyone who grinds the whole thing at 3+ hours a day.
