BoogerStick Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 4 hours ago, Damoncord said: Part of me is looking at how much I'm fighting to be in the top 15 of Sexpert 1 and wondering how hard Sexpert 2 is gonna be. I'm beginning to think sticking around 16 could be a good strategy for me. If I'm 16-30 in Sexpert 1 I'm gonna get 114 Kobans, If I go up to Sexpert 2 with the stronger players I'm gonna have to maintain in the top 45 to get the same or better rewards. First week of S2 is going to be like the first week of S1 was - koban spenders rocketing to the top positions and staying there all week. I just did the numbers and I'm way better off holding back to skip promotion this week and then only moving up once there's more than a single S2 league so the spenders are thinned out a bit. Based purely on fighting I'm pretty much guaranteed #1 unless one of 3 or 4 other players are in my league, and they're ones who look like they're aiming for promotions. So I reckon it's 114 this week and 960 next week, or 192 this week and 228(?) next week. 1074 if I hold back, or 420 if I decide to promote. Simple choice.

Based on the numbers of leagues we have now, we actually expect there to be 2 sexpert II brackets next week that'll be much closer to 100 in size than the first sexpert I bracket was. That still gives a relatively high chance of having the top end players show up though with all their strong gear denying you a top 4 spot though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This gives me the edge on defense and harmony, while my opponent has better ego and damage. We're well balanced on gear too, 3 legendaries and 3 epics each. I'd actually give the edge to my opponent in this instance, his gear being higher level than mine: But in the end, it was likely simply the first strike advantage that won me the match with 33k ego left: : He has less Know-how than you but he does more damage than you. The higher damage really helps out which is what makes 5-star girls worth upgrading also he has more ego/health than you from having a 5-star girl as well.

Urist Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 You kinda missed my point there, I was arguing for cost efficiency rather than raw power gain. Of course it's best to have both market upgrades done and a 5 star girl, but my point is that market upgrades gain you more power per $ spent.

DHarry Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 20th now in sexpert 1. Which is perfect, because I dont want to promote. 😂 But still a good reward. Hope I can keep this up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sovereign RHB Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 (edited) I'm ranking 21 with a 56 point lead over rank 30. I think I'm ok with 6 hours to go. btw: no shenaningans, this is where I belong in S1. Edited October 31, 2018 by dirty harry 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy55 Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 I'm hanging on to 75th in my S1 trying to stay in the money, a little over 4 hrs to go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gap shrunk to 21 points, but that should be enough as they are weaker than me (30-35) Maybe see you next league. 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniele Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 I'm currently 16th. I hope i won't be promoted in S2, i still have 4 fights to do (all sure losses). I know i know, i could stay 16th on purpose, but i don't like to tank. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgeMTO Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Holding onto 16th with fine tooth adjustments. Losing track of time before going to work made me miss some points and thus made certain I couldn't make top 4 (which I was doubting anyway). I'll join s2 next time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelom Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 I reached 4th position 30 minutes before the end, but I expect a final rush from some players behind me, so will be difficult to maintain it. The first three are decided yet: Shiki, Casey (both with max points) and Arcana's Fate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniele Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Wow, that was close... Thankfully no S2 for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Sam Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Well, this was a better season. Only lost to the dudeders who finished above me, so I suppose that counts for something. Now time to enjoy another season of getting relegated right back to this level...sigh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack_HH Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Highest place I could get, even while using boosters. I didn't have 3 fights, and with them, I could have gotten to the 17th place... but I wouldn't have qualified to the next league anyway, and considering that I'm still not competitive enough, I guess it is for the best. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelom Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Finally 4th!! But bad news ... there is going to be only one Sexpert 2 group with 195 players. Another clash of titans. in the first Sexpert I league I placed 40th, and this time I hope to do a bit better, but reaching 30th will be very difficult. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSonicSly Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Well, I finished in 9th place, which should be a good thing. Only problem is, I didn't expect to place in the top 15. Now I'm in Sexpert 2 where literally more than half the Players are over Lv 300. This was a mistake... but what else was I supposed to do, lose on purpose? Now it looks like I'll lose regardless... 😰 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sovereign RHB Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Found some 3-pointers late in the game. Just went for it. Did it matter................. Not in the least. Next season S1 again. just fought the top player lvl-wise and won. New season's bracket S1 top player is Syriak (lvl 302) and there are 105 players in the bracket. Again no forum names jump out to me. GL y'all this next season 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_shal_ Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 A nice improvement over last week's 32nd place, but I didn't trouble the top 15 spots: This week will be tricky - I'm not strong enough to finish top 4 unless a few better players don't play seriously, but I'm far too good for finishing in 16th place without seriously costly tanking. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very happy I decided to skip promotion this time around - I do well on pure fighting stats, but won't compete against the koban spenders. There's nobody in my S1 this week who I can't beat so I think I'm guaranteed 1st place. :) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just happened to shoot up towards the end. I expected to lose against the Lv 300+ Players with over 200k Ego but I somehow beat em', guaranteeing a spot in Sexpert 2... 😭 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same for me, I finished 6 places behind you ultimately. 25th. But that did exceed my expectations after 62th precious round. This time it looks much better for me again. Lot of higher levels, but no good teams/gear. Top 10 for surr if I want to, but maybe Ill wait one out to have a chance to promote 2-4 like George. Nice battling with some familiar faces. 👌🏻 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
