Only if you are one of those people that like to attack teams that are significantly higher up the ranks than you. It would depend on the limit that was set. I think maxing out at 20points per battle is fair, 5 battles to reach the next reward, provided you're not attacked. It would in turn though ensure you couldn't lose more than x amount of points for losing a battle, making it easier to hold your ground and keep climbing the ladder. Maybe a two score system would also work. A Current Score and Base Score (which is a percentage of your current score). Your base score can only increase and never decrease and your current score can't fall below your base score. As a rough example: At the start of a tournament both your scores start at 0 points. Say you win a match worth 20points. Your current score increases to 20 and your base score is now 12. If you are attacked by multiple people then your current score will never drop below 12. If you kept winning rounds and reached 1000 points then your base score would be 600 and you can go to sleep happy that night knowing that you will at least be able to resume from 600points the next day if you happened to be attacked a million times in the night. Ranking and progression rewards etc uses your current score as normal.

If I'm lucky I'll break 900 before the insanity starts tomorrow evening. I'm looking forward to the daily reward tomorrow since currently my Thor is maxed out at L45, while I'm having to play against people with L60+ ones.

It wasn't a few hours. I started in the late afternoon and...let's just say I'm not proud of the trajectory that last night took for me.

This is generally my experience whenever I'm decently busy, but yesterday, I decided to be a no-lifer. I doubt I'd be able to keep that up forever.
