I was having a tinykitty ball getting to 1k it was amazing I didn't care I was getting hit my the 141's I played earlier today. OBW two star teams all the way to 1k shredded like uh shredded wheat, with frosting. Right when I started my run I only got the same 5 141 teams all lower points than me at 300...and then after almost wiping on the first match bam...mmr switch hit and we took it. If this is permanent then pvp is back to its golden age again. If it was a fluke then I shoulda pushed for first place but joki is a pretty big carry, he does as much favors as Rags on defense didnt bother. !k is fine with me. Don't need yellow X-force anyways.

I agree it's not particularly surprising to see people pushing hard at this point in season 1, but I don't quite understand why people (not just you, I've seen it elsewhere) think this increase in competitiveness is somehow going to go away simply because it'll be a new season. Is it because a lot of people have just decided to be less competitive? What if the new rewards are even better than the old ones? Won't people understand that every event counts for the same amount and go just as hard at the beginning of the next season as they do at the end of this one?

You could wake up to Nemek coming out of nowhere 6 hours ago to be at over 1100 after you went to bed. And the Top 2 have been shielded way north of 1200 since about 12 hours into the tourney.

And the Top 2 have been shielded way north of 1200 since about 12 hours into the tourney. Oh you're in that bracket too? Must have missed your name last time I looked. I knew Nemek was there only cause I happened to see him down at 25 or whatever when I was hanging out there for a while as well. I was really hoping for an easier bracket this time around but with the top 10 already shielded north of 900, I can only imagine they'll go higher, so it might be a tough one. Going to start climbing soon-ish, hopefully won't hit too many bumps along the way - hoping for ~1100 and a top 10.
