Rank: 4th
Score: 6831
Avg: 23.00
Boosters:  5x 2 Gins/1 Cord (143 fights), 2x 3 Cords (154 fights, -90 kos), & 1.36 AMEs (-900 kos).
Refills: 2.98 (-564 kos, ~45 fights).
Profit: +3210 kos
Player Lvl: 485->486.
Avg Player Lvl: 488.48 -> 488.96
Girl Lvl Cap: 750

L5 Girl: 144% for Beauty 🟣.

Got my fourth 4th, and my best avg yet, a solid 23.00!  I'm pleased w/ myself, cuz I was aiming for it.  Was surprised no one challenged me for 4th.  I was a little paranoid after seeing 6 other players w/ 204k+ TP in the first half, and 9 others w/ 160k+ TP in the 2nd half.  My partial use of an AME at the end, helped increase the lead ahead of 5th place by 375 points.  The top 1-3 players, [FDGN] ~ Joe, Filip, and Tatouf Métouf, fought over 1st place, w/ really high and tight 7.1k scores, edging and exceeding an avg of 24, (23.96-24.2).  They obviously used 3 AMEs and full cordyceps.

Used 3 refills on the first day, when I was boosted AF, due to trying to break the pantheon's 1900th wall.  Also, ended up buying a cordyceps at the end, so I'd have 3 on the last day.  There was ~11 boosted players throughout the week that I fought, b/c my score would be "good enough."  Admittedly, it did take a lot of micromanaging to catch players un-boosted.  It's a bit confusing to tell which players are actually un-boosted, or victims of the mythic gear bug.  Since, everyone kept a sensual team on defense, it was simple to counter them.

I ended up spending more than usual, buying 2 AME's, 3 refills, and a Cord, so after deducting that, my profit was ~3.2k kos.  At least I can afford the SE's 6k kos cards now.  Haven't decided when to buy them.  I should keep saving until Alt. Finalmecia's MDR, then consider the SE afterwards, but I can probably get her already.

I still just have 2 mythic gear (+2% ego), and expect to get another soon, from seasons, then one later from the SE.  I've run out of cordyceps again, since I'm hoarding orbs, so I expect to just aim for a top 15 this week.

Final rank: 1st

Boosters used : 18 legendaries (3 cordyceps 6 times). 3 A.M.E.

99 opponents -> 297 wins and 0 loss

Koban spent: 290 (refill of 23 fights)

Profit: 6 928 kobans

I could have saved 1 AME and also the fights refill but after 2 weeks of missing the 1st rank for a few points, I'd rather be safe than sorry 😜

Have a good week and take care.

[Kenrae]

Last league for me:

I used 1 AME which was clearly unnecessary 😅

[-MM-]

i am not the most active one here in the forum. especially those who get likes from me on 2 weeks old posts know that 😅

first to the league that ended on december 1. i hope its ok if i use @Mighty Thor 's screenshot here:

when i saw Lili in the league, it was clear to me that this was going to be a top 4 (2nd). accordingly, i didnt refill much and didnt wait with the fights even though the mythic items were just released. i did about 25% of the fights with legendary items until i got some decent mythic items from MyP (which i have spammed with orbs bc of the 12h MyP event and good girls for my harem - thanks to rngjesus many mythic items dropped also). the expectation for a top 4 didnt change during the whole league. Lili, as expected, almost didnt fight at all in the first half and on monday she (?) fought ~66% of the fights with a full mythic set. i think i was as surprised about the result as Lili 😄 i thank you very much for this exciting league until the last minute and gratz to my clubmate rayley for his great 3rd place!

now to the league that ended last week. unlike the previous league, i was going for 1st place. Yayane was clearly the strongest player and probably finished in a favorable 2nd place. this was my 8th D3 win 😄

I went with a new strategy this week and ended up with my first 24+ point average in the League. There were 100 players with a mean average level of 495.5, so this week was easier than last week. I have a chance to come in at first place (not expecting it but one can dream).

Have fun everyone, C'ya on the flip side. 😃

Surprise!

update on final standing

[bolitho76]

Nearer at Frans result than I thought I could get. Fran was the one I spotted who had better chances for top1 than I, so mostly expected end.

I used 2 AM Booster, 1 Ginseng and 2 Cordys as Legendary Booster and my team was lvl700-750. I had done refills a) at start of the League to use the last 30 charges in the active AM Booster and b) at blessing change to get the 85 aditional tokens to use a full AM Booster. For the last 70 fights in this League I started a new AM Booster so I will start with 30 fights in the next.

[Liliat]

A bit of an unexpected result for me. I didn't change my recent habit - 3x Gin no AM - which used to give me safe Top 10. Last week was a bit closer (12th), and now I was a little bit panicked at the end, because Top 15 suddenly jumped from a 20.5 avg to a 21.2 avg, that I didn't quite expect.

I still had 19 fights left and was sitting at 20th place (21.63 avg), with only hard fights left. I was expecting something around 21.24 avg.

With 4 minutes left into the league (I waited as long as possible, in case we had a new snapshot and I could caught someone unboosted), I started optimizing my remaining fights best as I could.

Never realized how quickly time can fly, in these circumstances.

I panicked a little bit in the last 30s when I still had 5 fights to play 😛 And when I was sitting in 16th place with a single fight to play, and I lost that fight, I must admit I've been a bit scared to miss Top 15 for the first time in almost 3 months.

For these reasons, my screenshot is a bit unusual: I was still in "fight mode", and not "league results mode", and the timer was running out:

This cost me a partial refill (10 fights, 118 Kobans). Other than that, it was totally free, so all's well that ends well. I'm relieved 😛

I managed to score +6 over my expected average (before optimizing my teams), which is not insignificant, considering at least one opponent had 6309 points 15 minutes before reset. I would be curious to see who ended up 16th/17th, because I wasn't the only one moving at the last minute.

[OmerB]

For the first time in two months, I missed and finished on the 15th place on D2 (I hoped someone will catch me, but they didn't).

I'm contemplating whether I should put on my Mythic gear and fight in D3, or go down immediately to D2. I'm think that I would do the latter for now, it's 1-2 months too early for me on D3.

[jelom]

Congrats to Scarlet-Titan for the win.

I finished 4th (someone passed me in the last 5 minutes), but top4 is very good given the contenders, not using AME and my slow adopting of mythic gear (still not a single one dropped from mythic pachinko and I don't want to burn my stash just for this).

Good luck to all for the next week.

[SafiTheOrca]

Fun and challenging league this week, with fellow club mates @Liliat, @Chico BonBon and @Taorin all in on the action! It was clear that Chico and Sovereign were going to be vying for the top spot, my money was on Chico until it became obvious that Sovereign was doing an incredible job of tracking everyone's league progress with detailed knowledge of number of fights etc. So when Sovereign knew she'd done enough to be victorious, she had no problem switching to weaker boosters safe in the knowledge that 1st was hers  

I finished the league with a 24.11 average across 297 fights, final score 7162. The usual boosters for me, 3 x cordyceps and an All Masteries Emblem active. Full class-matching mythic gear, no theme bonus this week (that'll change soon, got my first class-matching balanced theme attack/defence piece of equipment a couple of days ago).

I was surprised how much higher my average score has been with this league. Compared to the 'easy' D3 the week before, I expected a lower average due to fiercer competition. Anyhow, obligatory screenies!

[Liliat]

Thanks for the Top 15 Screenshot, Safi! Couldn't get it in time

So I can now add 16th and 17th places with relative confidence, based on my own Top 15 screenshot 15 before end of league:

- 16th: takuya @ 6309 <<< I expected to be a couple of points short of them. Glad I managed to overshoot by just a few points!

- 17th: Shadow @ 6293

And the other last-minute player was Jechko, who didn't appear on my screenshot. He grabbed 10th place. Congrats!

Offense: 154.57k -> 171.9k.
Mythic Gear: 3/6 (+4% Ego from Charm, & +4% Harmony from Balanced)
L5 Girl: 182% for Beauty 🟣.

Got my fifth 4th.  This time w/ about half an AME (0.61), leftover from last week, and 7 Cords/14 Gins total.  I think this bracket was easier than usual, since the SE began, and savvy players are less likely to use AMEs. 

I had 3 mythic gear this time, compared to last week's 2.  Two match my class, and one is balanced.  I have a 4th I can use, but it's still just lvl 13, so I won't equip it yet.

I was aiming for a top 15, but I was 1st all week, since I used a single refill at the start.  Then, used 3 refills after blessings changed.  Everyone defending w/ a sensual 🔵 team made it too easy, since I was able to use a +20-60k TP stronger playful 🟡 team, to counter them.  I could've finished all of my fights immediately, for a higher avg, but that would've been wasteful.  Still finished fights a day early.  Dropped from 1st to 3rd in the last 2 hrs, and then to 4th in the final 5 min.  I micromanaged it like last week.  I knew everyone's TP, my potential scores against them, and when they were likely to be un-boosted. 

I think it's the first time I've had over 4k kos profit, despite ranking 4th four other times.  Now, I can afford Alt. Finalmecia's ⚪ MDR, and the SE's 6k kos cards.  I ran out of cords, and I don't have a leftover AME, so I'd very much like to casually finish in the top 15 this week.  I expect to have just ~168.5k TP after blessings change, when the max should be 186.1k TP on HH.com.  I expect to be at a disadvantage, but I haven't actually appraised my opponents yet.  Got a new AME from the CbC, but I want to save it.

I was 2 points away from getting 3rd, and ruining my 5x 4ths Medal. *sigh of relief*

Shoutout to  @hS7, a new forum member, who got their first 3rd place.

Week #10 in D3:

(Screenshot taken 24 seconds before the end of the league:)

This time I finished at rank 18, which is my best result in rankings.

(5881 points, 19.80 average, 267 victories, 30 defeats, 99 opponents)

(Cordyceps: 1,1,1,1,1,1)
(Kobans: 38+9=47)

You can see the rest in my table - as well as my previous attempts:

As I didn't miss so much time this week, I spent only 47 kobans for partial refills to do all fights.
And I used only 6 times 1 cordy + 2 gins (no bought boosters).

So I had the best koban profit in D3 so far (2166-47=2119).

At the moment I'm at player level 473 with 724 girls in my harem.
18 girls are at level 750 (2 mythics, 6 L5, 5 R5 and 5 C5).

You can see my rainbow team in the screenshot above - 5 girls at level 750 and 2 at 700, all L5s and blessed 30% (green eyes).

Meanwhile I have 4 mythic equipments at level 20 in my set:

- slot 2: HC(not my class)/ego, EXHIBITIONIST/harmony,
- slot 4: KH(not my class)/ego, SENSUAL/harmony,
- slot 5: HC(not my class)/ego, PLAYFUL/defense,
- slot 6: CH(my class 😉)/attack, EXHIBITIONIST/defense

These are my equipments and the stats with 1 cordy and 2 gins (player level 473):

Good luck to all of you - have fun, stay healthy and be happy! 😊

P.S.: Exciting finish, @Liliat! 😉

I also did my last few fights in the very last minutes *), which was quite stressful and exciting too. 😂
There was no chance for me to reach top 15 in D3, but I wanted to play all fights and maximize my points and my ranking.

*) (and also villain fights for CbC where I luckily finished 15th;
though no time for the daily contest, therefore I have been sniped there and ended 5th)

Good luck have fun this week, folks. Stay safe!

[-MM-]

i was able to win my league again and at the same time set a new average record of 24.82 🥳 since all bugs in the league have been fixed for over a week now, this average can be considered valid.

the strongest player in my bracket was jeandelalune. based on the results i assume that he made a cheap second place. he definitely would have been able to achieve an avg of 24.50+. gratz on his 2nd place and well thought out strategy with a high koban profit.

in my new league i am together with @OmerB 👋

good luck to all in their next league and may rngjesus bless you! 😄

[hS7]

Well, as I've been mentioned I suppose I'll do this.

I'm FTP, but had a large stash of mythic pachinko and some good luck, so I've got a full set of mythic equipment. I'd previously been getting top 30s until the mythic equipment, since when I've had two top 15s.

This week I realised after the blessings change that I'd fought nearly all the level 500s and hadn't had a single defeat. So I thought this might be the best chance I ever get to get a top 4, before everyone else gets full mythic equipment in the next couple of months. It was at least worth using one of my stock of AMEs from contests.

Final results: 3rd (see Ravi-Sama's screenshot above)

297 wins from 297 fights. Average 22.7

2 gin + 1 cordy (except for last day when I had 1 gin + 2 cordy); 1 AME. No refills.

Level 464-465.

@Ravi-Sama: I kept a few fights right to the end in case one of the last few opponents dropped their boosters. I was looking to finish 4th, then when I realised I'd beaten you by 1 point I was hoping there was no-one else that would beat both of us and push you out of the top 4 by 1 point.

[E. N. D.]

Hello , this my last D3 result. It's  always a real pleasure to win, but this one tastes better.... 

[Alex_i]

First top4 finish.

Used mostly 1cor,2gin and 1x 3cor (partial)
Def teams 163k & 181k (competition 165k & 185k)

Had strong teams both halves and easy league. So the starting point looked promising. However, top4 came as a surprise. Also most profitable league run so far as didn't spent much - just one refill.

There's not too much into it really. OK, the mythical gear helps. I feel the player level becomes a non-factor once you have a full set - at least for the top15. Have three pieces upgraded so far myself. So on par with the average D3 field but behind the top contenders.

I treat the top4 finish as a fluke and going forward will continue playing for the top15.

@sban Congrats for top4 finish.

[Tom208]

Screenshot taken 5 minutes before the end of the league.

Final rank: 3rd

Boosters used : 18 legendaries (2 ginseng and 1 cordycep 6 times). 0 A.M.E.

99 opponents -> 297 wins and 0 loss

Koban spent: 0

Profit: 4 764 kobans

No AME used due to the seasonal event, so I didn't expect anything else than a top 4 at the best. Congrats to Lili for her victory.

Have a good week and take care.

[bolitho76]

Gratulation to Kenrae for the 1st. Tom, who was the other one with chances of top1 as I scanned the League bracket for the first time last week, reached second. I could get 3rd place with a little bit luck. I used 1 Ginseng, 2 Cordys mostly, 1 time 3 Cordyceps. 2 AM Booster was used too.

[Liliat]

Last week was way too close, so this time I decided to spend "a bit more". I went for 2x Cordy, 1 AM. Beside Tatouf Métouf, I didn't see any scary opponent, so it looked like the right moment to do it:

And of course, that's another bunch of new personal records:

- Top 2 (+3, first time in Top 4)

- 23 Avg (+1.09)

- 6901 points (+197)

- Cost: too much, but I don't care 😛 (All boosters were "free", but it still leaves a gap in my inventory). Used 107 Kobans for the usual last-minute refill (I wanted to refill right after BC, but I forgot )

[Rylarth]

Top 4 as expected Gogeta and Govenants in the lead 

[jelom]

Omega had a full set of matching Mythic equipment, so I expected him to win, but he surpassed me rushing literally at the last minute.

Even so, a second place with only 3 Mythic gear is good enough for me.

L5 Girl: 212% for Beauty 🟣. (I could've got her twice, lol).

Finished 6th.  I aimed for a chill top 15, since I was out of cordyceps, and had a TP disadvantage, but still played carefully.  Did 95% of fights w/ 3 gins.  Just used 1 refill at blessings change.  A similar result (6th) and avg (~21.6) as the week of Nov. 3rd, where I used 5 more cords total.  Most players used a submissive ⚪ defense team in the 2nd half, so it was simple to counter (⚫/⚪).  Despite playing it chill w/ 3 gins, I was 8 points away from top 4, and ranked 2nd-5th throughout the week.  It was definitely an easy bracket, most likely due to the SE, and lack of incentive to use AMEs. 

Special shoutout to @Liliat who already reported their first top 4.  I noticed they were going for it, w/ 3 cords equipped, unlike the usual top 15 goal.  You picked a good week & bracket to aim high.  A 23 avg feels great.

Tatouf Métouf had a 6k score already before blessings changed.  They used a lot of refills at the start, despite having no competition.  Only two other players had 185k TP in the first half.  Sometimes, they chose a really weak 14.6k TP team on defense in the 2nd half.  It was pretty bizarre.  Maybe they were low on cordyceps too, so used many refills instead.  *shrugs*

I like the future blessings in the 2nd half of this week (Taurus 30% & eccentric 40%).  I'll have at least 199.1k TP w/o upgrading girls, which is just 4.5k away from the max of 203.6k TP.  Have 6 of the top 7 girls maxed, just missing Alexa 🔴.  I'll probably take it easy now in the 1st half, and then "go all out" after blessings change.  Should have my 3rd class matching gear leveled up by then.  I didn't equip it yet, since it's lvl 17.  GPx10s are so much more valuable now.  I have 4 mythic gear equipped, and soon 3 will match my charm class, but they all boost ego instead of atk.
