Has the 2* drop rate changed for LRs? I think I pulled only 2 covers from LR battles from all of yesterday and today. The rest were ISO drop.
I used to pull several a day.

Anyone else noticed this?

    Since the raised selling price for max champ 2stars, there have been reports of significantly lowered 2star drop rate from pvp matches. So for a few months now.

    Seems to happen to me in waves, weighted more towards the end of season.

    This week I got 2 star.pngstar.png out of 146 matches, 3 weeks ago I did the same number of matches and got 73 covers.

    Got some more numbers in my own topic:

    Apparently the rewards depend on the LR being Villain or Hero centric
    For more details see these topics (with thanks to tizian2015)

    Couldn't be random chance and confirmation bias, though.

    I pulled zero 2 star covers from this latest wave of LRs...and I played 73 matches this time.

    I was thinking that I was just having bad luck. from what I recall, the past 2 LR's I played all (except for the few overnight ones) and was rewarded with just 3 2* cards. this has stalled my 2* farming a bit.

    I have noticed this too.

    I have only gotten 1-3 covers for 2 days of play, this week and last week.

    I believe the rates dropped significantly right after they introduced the gain of 2XP per successful PVP match.

    Prior to this, I was experiencing a 2 week cycle of:
    1. One week, 5-10 covers per 2 days.
    2. Then next week, about 10-30 covers per 2 days.
    (I usually play about 8 LRs per day)

    I've noticed this for a few months now,even before the 2xp rewards.i probably only play about 8-10 rds for the two days,usually seeds only.i used to get easily 10-15 2 stars.i've gotten 2 the last 2 weeks.ever since the dev's found out how much fun we're having down at the farm,the 2 star flow has slowed to a dribble.

    I was going to post the very same thing.
    I play all day Tues-Thurs to hit all those seed LRs....and like others posting, I may have gotten about two or three. This is the first week I've seen the change.

    But those nickel-and-dime ISO-wins helped champ my GSBW finally!
