    I haven't seen anything lower than 141 for three weeks now, even though I tanked last weeks LRs religiously.
    MMR working as intended.


    LRs are said to not affect your MMR as much as a normal tourney so tanking in them is near useless
    Well if we ever get a break from season p,ay, I'll tank the TINYKITTY out of every tourney that doesn't have Daken or Torch covers as prizes.
    Me and everyone else, which is why we won't get a break, of course.

    I just had an intruiging battle.

    High leveled Rags, Loki and Doom.

    Me - Rags, Patch, CMags

    Cascades... then Rags green, more cascades. Enemy gets tons and tons of black. And what? And nothing. I would easily lost if AI decided to launch Daemons. But naaah, AI decided to keep it for Loki. When I finally got enough green + blue + red to finish them in 1 round, AI was at 30black...

    Just lol.

    It was d3's way of asking you to stay Emeryt. So we can break you later icon_e_smile.gif

    I just tank the ever living hell out of my MMR at the beginning of each PVP event it's annoying and a grind but its better then banging my head against 141's for several days

    The only way to lower your mmr now is to quit the game and burn it.....with fire icon_e_smile.gif

    Or do what I did...I spent 12 hours losing on purpose, I lost over 200 battles in one day, not skipping mind you but losing....and instead of 141's, I am getting 85's...Mission Accomplished!
    The question is - how long is this going to last? if for one tournament - I would not call it time well spent then

    Apparently there is a MMR adjustment (lowering) at the end of each respective type of event PvP/PvE.

    But than, there are so many events back to back and PvE is grindy... so hard to actually keep it under control.

    Aaaand... I'm done. Got up to 1100 with my regular team of LT/Hood, didn't even have to use Patch/CMags icon_lol.gif
    Not a single attack from 850 to the end, guess I picked a good time to push.

    If you have me queued, fire away. I'm just glad to be done with PVP for **** rewards.
  • I have to charge my Andriod for a bit but I will have to try to make a final push so I can keep my final season rank high so i can get a few heroic tokens.

    And for this event, I'm hoping to make my push to win psyloke, no matter what rank im in.
  • This event has been really tame, actually.
    Still 18 hours to go but still, my top 10 is just 713. I'm actually first in my bracket with 912, barely got attacked before I decided to call it a day.

    Not sure if they actually changed something, everyone is on SHIELD Simulator or what.

    A lot of people keep saying this tourney has been more calm than usual....I wish I could say the same - I've been getting smacked around left and right...

    Me too - every time I log in I'm down 80-100 points. Which would normally not be that big a deal but none of my nodes are giving up more than 23 points if I'm lucky...
  • with 17h to go my t10 starts at 840 and all shielded.

    I had it easy up to about 900, barely hit 1000 and have been getting smacked relentlessly since then, so I shielded up for three hours
  • well i would have to make my final pushes.

    Dont think I'll be able to win my second psyloke cover. I'll most likely be attacked and win the lame bullseye cover D; which I DONT want

    And naturally when you hit me the retaliation is worth squat even if I decide to be brave and take on your Patch/CMags.

    I say squat but it's really not much lower than I've been seeing all morning.

    Lycra, morgh and I are in the same bracket, 1, 2 & 3 respectively. Was actually able to get in 4-5 matches between one 3hr shield and another. Seems slower than usual. Sure will probably change towards the end

    Keep pushing, you'll get there. I know it's harder than usual lately.. S1 and bracket changes no one understands...oh my.
  • Spent the last hour or so working my way up from 5-600 range up to 1k. Think I may have gotten hit once before 700. Didn't get touched at all until 5 minutes after shielding. I'm sitting in 3rd in my bracket and don't plan on breaking shield before it ends. Hopefully that's good enough for top 10 (I think it wasn't in the L'Daken one, but since it's gone I can't check). Only the second time I've hit 1k. Didn't feel like trying for 1100 since I've already got 5 green in 'ol tin arm. That, and I was getting cyborged to tears fighting the same team over and over.
  • Shielded for the duration at 900. Feel free to attack me. I'm not unshielding.
  • Getting smacked around like crazy with a max Hood, LT, and 90 (prebuff rag) even in the 500 range.

    Good thing I already told myself F season ranking and I don't need Psy

    I made it up to 1014, I am shielded for the event. I don't know who I hit on the way up so feel free to hit me back...
