I play blitz 2v2 with my brother. I have encountered quite a few issues that just make no sense. If I am wrong about something or simply misunderstand then please correct me.
Today we played 6 games. We won the first five, each game increased my rank by just a couple of percent. The total increase was less than 20%. Our final game crashed at around a minute and we were given an error message saying the game went out of sync. The issue is our ranks went down 60%. We were winning the game before it crashed. If I win all evening and my rank is decreased due to a technical error it’s fairly soul crushing.
This is not a one time thing. We win the vast majority of our games. Maybe 80-90%. Our tank changes never reflect this. It’s a painful grind of 2 or 4% increases most games and on the occasion we do lose. Blam 40-60% rank decreases. The only correlation I can see is that the wins/losses appear to be dependant on the player level(called rank) of the opponent. Can I have an explanation of how the ranking system work for blitz.
Also we have played every game together this season. Neither of us has played any 2vs2 with anyone else. Why is he champion and I’m platinum 4. We played the same ten placement games and are placed in vastly different ranks. This makes no sense. Your competitive rank for the current season should not be based on anything other than your games played this season.
The energy gain also makes 0 sense. Every single game I look at the energy gained statistic to see which player has seemingly randomly gotten more. In a game where I collected about 80% of the energy cores, the other three players got 1950ish energy and I got 1450. What? Why? Is it not about the cores? It also doesn’t seem to be based on holding the objectives or playing more/less cards.
I actually really enjoy playing. Every game (apart from when they crash or opponents quit) is exiting and fun but once the game is over I am reminded how it’s all a mess and for naught.
Finally, it absolutely has to be said again. Please give me convenient and accurate stats on units. Health, damage, armour and abilities are all needed when I’m making choices of how to build my deck and play the game. Just colours and no other info is pretty unhelpful. There are all these balance changes going on. The game is pretty well balanced. What I need are these issues sorted
