A few others either retreated in or wiped after me and are below me so I can't see if there's exactly 500. I would love to hear something official on if they've made some adjustments to the sharting or not. Earlier in the seasons it was brutal, they acknowledged the nudges were a bit less gentle than they wanted. In season three it seemed to have been sorted quite well. If the goal is to make the prizes more accessible, how does that help someone for whom 700 points might get them a top 10 with more gentle nudges, if now it maybe gets them top 50 if they're in a death bracket? The players capable of grabbing top 5 with a 1k+ score are probably going to do that regardless of their brackets, why make it really tough for the other players in that bracket?
