How you doing in the "League"


casey

Recommended Posts

Been away for a day and am currently at 90 outta 103 in S3. If I hadn't missed any fights and am not going to miss anymore - which I will be - I might end up around  600-700 points, depending on judges and luck. Which means about rank 60?

Hmm, Let me do some math and get back to you. There may be a profitable tactic here.

 

edit: example for SII/SIII:

When you tank in SII and end up in the 16-30 tier you get 228 kobans and 2 cp (and money relative to your lvl). The stronger you are in that leaugue the more xps you'll have to tank.

If you promote to SIII and end up 61st and up you get 78 kobans and 1cp and you can grind on in SIII and get 46-61 tier reward of 192 kobans and 2cp. You'll get far less xps in sIII than you would in SII due to losing so much.

Or..............

You tank massively in SIII and get demoted.  You get nothing (and some money) but you're probably strong enough to promote from SII to SIII next season in the top 4 which will get you 768 kobans and 8 cp. Xps over a two week time period? You'll have to look at your own situation, I guess.

 

Summarily there are five options:

Staying in SII for two seasons and tanking it will get you 228+228= 456 kobans and 4 cp.

promoting to and Plodding on in SIII for two seasons will get you maybe 78+192 = 270 kobans and 3 cp.

Promoting to SIII and immediately demoting to SII again and promoting in the top 4 the next season will get you 0+768 = 768 kobans and 8 cp.

Promoting to SIII and immediately demoting to SII again and promoting in the top 15 the next season will get you 0+384= 384 kobans and 4 cp.

Promoting to SIII and immediately demoting to SII again and promoting in the top 1 the next season will get you 0+1920 = 1920 kobans and 20 cp.

 

As I said in the beginning I'm currently 90th outta 103. I think that's is the best I am going to do this season.

:P

edit2:

Oh, and added benefit. You can take a week off from this game and do something or someone irl. lol.

Your play choices all seems good on paper,  but as the famous Boxer Mike Tyson stated "everybody has a great plan until they get punched in the face"

many players have gotten major equipment upgrades recently and you don't know what strong teams are going to be promoted, so hopefully whichever plan

you pursue works out  of not9_9O.o

Successfully demoted back to s1 this season.  Started out great but then about halfway thru this season missed out on some CP's.  Not sure how many.  Still not strong enough to win this week (take first place) but may end in top four.  Will then promote back to s2.  Will have to see how it goes from there.

Finished 16th in Sexpert 3. In truth I could have finished in the promotion slots, but this time decided to wait one more week to move to Dicktator 1. I don't want to lose thousands of XP with a lot of sure losses.

After seeing my rivals in the new league for this week with only one player stronger than me, this time i expect placing 2nd :)

Back after my previous promotion to S1, I improved from 61st to 35th the second week, so I'm hoping to reach the top 45 this time, but I missed that position by almost 140 points this past week, so I'd have to beat an extra 23 or so opponents to achieve that...even with the usual bracket dilution from week to week, I suspect that's a bit out of my reach unless I fluke an equipment upgrade somewhere. So, it'll probably be a finish around 50th.

Level-wise I've moved up all the way to third-lowest now...

Surprisingly large improvement from last week's 67th place, considering I had zero equipment upgrades during the week:

Well ahead of 46th, so finishing in the 31-45 bracket wasn't in doubt at the end. However, I think that same points total would only have been good enough for around 50th place last time, so I'm guessing a lot of players weren't fully competitive due to the holidays. Would be nice if I could move up further into the top 30 this time around, but I kinda suspect I won't improve that much on this 39th place.

Up to 7th-lowest by level, hurray for that.

@Moe Overload Around 39,800 league XP for the week, more than I expected even though my strength level in the league was roughly as I thought.


On a sidenote: All 15 promoted players in my bracket were over 165k in ego, as were 12 of the next 15. So I'm clearly still way off from getting anywhere near a promotion to S3 myself.

Snowman22 (L 259 ego 175K) is starting to suspect a trick. Or a surprise party. Or something. Something where all the hidden high ego players jump out from behind the sofa, yell "SURPRISE", and hand snowman22 a large silver platter with a large silver dome on it.

Snowman22 finished 16th in last week's S2 and had to let a fair number of challenges go unused. 8th would have been expected.

The current S2 looks similar to last one. The top end has faded some more. The highest ego dropped from 187K last week to 184K this week and there are only 9 players with ego > 175K. Players with ego < 160K increased from 61 last week to 65 this week. There are also more really low ego players (< 140K).

If you are a 160K ego player dogging it in S1 you will probably place in the 31 - 45 band in S2. Come on up. The water is fine.

30th in W3 a week ago, 16th at closing time yesterday.  I might have been able to eke out enough single points to advance if I'd been able to use all my tokens. I'm not 100% sure.

This week I'm 73rd in terms of level, but only 24 players have any points so far - still quite early. I shouldn't be able to advance based on Ego or Level, but inactivity may make it possible,

After missing a bunch of cp and me not wanting to promote, I aimed for 16-30 without spending kobans. Managed to finish 25th, so mission accomplished. 

Still so many players are higher lvl than me. Im stronger, but that wont last forever as they will eventually get better equipment. So I need to lvl more. Not going to promotefor a while, need exp! So, 16-30 again. Probably will have to let some cp go at the end this time. 

 

Then again, not much longer before we all hit the 400 ceiling. That should be interesting!

Fran still need almost 4 million XP to reach level 400, he is just near two thirds of the way, so still many months. And the rest of us more than a year for sure.

Not to take this thread off topic but I will anyway (I believe by being this thread's creator gives me special rights:D

I'm sure the dev's will address the issue of the 400 level ceiling in the near future, it seems like an easy software update / change

I kinda hope they wont. At least not until right after I make it there. 😂

Then I can do much better in the league. There, now its sort of ontopic again. 🤔😅

You've been luckier with the draw at the top end of your bracket than I have been, then. (Not that it matters because I'm far below them anyway.) I've got no less than 8 players above 180k this time, which is more than last week - 192 HC, 189 HC, 188 KH, 188 KH, 183 KH, 183 HC, 183 Ch, 183 Ch.

The middle and bottom sections do look easier than last time, as expected.

After a full week of struggle, I was finally able to end 83th in my Sexpert III turn. Putting aside the fact that the last reward tiers receive really insignificant rewards (and only God knows why they receive only money and nothing else), my new Sexpert III is slightly bigger (105 instead of 103 players), but looks mainly alike the previous one, maybe except for the fact I found a little more players with an EGO size near my ~170k, so with a little luck I could be able to obtain a little better result next Thursday.

@brassygirl Yeah, I saw the name and thought: "the brassygirl"? Nah.

I am green boosted right now. Wait 1 d 10 h and I will be 3K easier. I am doing all the difficult battles now and I do not plan on boosting again this S2. I am not planning on promoting this time. The top of the S2 brackets seem to be diluting at about 4K/week and I am getting stronger at about 1K/week. Hopefully next week (or the week after) I can hit top 4.

Hey!!  Somehow my connection got sogged up.  I saw this, like hours ago, just after you wrote it, & wrote you back---  Now it appears my post didn't actually "post"-

 

Darnit.  

Sadly.... Well, at least I know you didn't write back!!  Hey, ty so much for the kind words & insight into your "battle plans"!!

We are tied or about as I write>  It appears the two ahead of us?  used Koban.

I'm going to go for promotion.  I hope you will too.  Lets get out of that place where ppl use Koban for temp "go aheads" hahaha.

Also, I write you about our club.  Chthugha opened:  We are OG & you will recognize everyone from here in the forum.  It will be at least a best, bc we all know each other and are already friends.  There are a few spots open AND our chat window is working right now!  Big plus for all.

So don't hesitate to kick my arse & take the lead.  :   I go green booster too:  I go down the list once:  Attack one time to everyone I'm sure of:  Then go back & fill in.  (if I barely win?  or think I will have trouble if they get a little higher:  I'm like you:  I blast w/all three)

So:  Win!!!!  & join our club for OG!!

C-ya!  brassy

Got demoted to SII last  season. Expected that to happen since I was going to be AWL. Missed the first day and part of the second of this season too. Maybe gonna miss another day this season so I'll see where I end up. Ego-wise I should be able to beat everyony I've seen so far. Beat the top 5 lvl-wise. Somehow my priorities are shifting away from this game.

@Joe-da-G, you still out there? Or have you retreated behind the Maginot line?
