Once again I'm facing Koth in an event with no red nodes. How is this still a thing? Should be roughly 1 line of code to fix.

Sorry about the rant, just need to vent... The low quality of this game continues to blow my mind...

    According to the people who have gotten a response to this from support, this is done on purpose to "give the player more of a challenge".

    and "variety"!

    Nothing beats playing Longshaft's Koth multiple times in the same event.

    So much variety in playing White/Black/Green every time too!

    Yet, there is far more variety in quick battle than in events. It's gotten to the point where I am in no rush to play in the current **** event. Let me guess, same black/white/green nodes again?

    Yup. Think that's how it's going to be from now on.

    *yawn*

    I think they probably schedule the events during the week in bulk beforehand.

    Not even that. This has been the same repeating schedule of events during the week for a while now. It's just different on the weekends.

    Yeah let me rephrase that. There is probably a program/spreadsheet/whatever that they can just plug in an event schedule, and then it gets shoved out for however long they predetermined automatically, without any extra input. Efficient, but lazy.

    I assure you my QB stats would be a lot worse if this was the case.

    If variety was a concern, out of the thousands of players per tier you wouldn't see the same handful over and over and over again...
