After the titan update I have seen more and more death squads.
I have over 2k legend trophies this is the first time I have been kicked out of champs since I entered the league. Every 「fluffernutter」ing match there is at least 2 people on the enemy team with maxed everything. Its always always on the red team always.
Not only that but if there is no maxed person in either team 100% chance my team is full of griffins and Leo's and campers who dont defend beacons its bull「dookie」.
Are the players leaving? Is this the reason for the andriod and ios merge? Or is it the stupid lag that makes me.miss all my redeemers shots and teleporting lag bots? Or do I just suck?

Well, I’m Masters II, and I’m dealing with an average of 4 Champion level players a match.

I bounced in and out of Champs for about 9 months before permanent residency. Sometimes wish I could drop out again but reality isMM keeps us at about 50% . So I win a few too easily, get stomped about as much, and maybe a third of the time have awesome tight matches. I believe that is the life of a random player.

Pix said in one video that iOS numbers have dropped. I'm guessing that's the main reason for the merger, rather than, say, fixing the problems with the game.

I finally stayed in M3, then clawed up to M2....always fighting with/against Champs, always.....
A week or so ago, MM decided I am weak, and I canât believe how fast I dropped down to.....E1 again, where I still get abused mote times than not.
Crazy game, crazy MM, and quite frankly-I no longer give a 「fluffernutter」.

Mm difficulty runs in cycles depending on your win percentage and other things. Keep grinding

Reds: 5-6 top-tier clan / Legend League player death squads. Blues: 2-3 clan members (often either scoring high enough to push me down, or tankers) in a rigged match, + randoms.
Game, after game, after game, after game, after game...
...after game...
With all the honor boosters and top tier players I often don't even manage to score Top 2 and gain points, instead of lose them.
Waiting for the top players and all their shenanigans to rise up, up, and away from me until I can level my ****.

After the titan update I have seen more and more death squads. I have over 2k legend trophies this is the first time I have been kicked out of champs since I entered the league. Every ?fluffernutter?ing match there is at least 2 people on the enemy team with maxed everything. Its always always on the red team always. Not only that but if there is no maxed person in either team 100% chance my team is full of griffins and Leo's and campers who dont defend beacons its bull?dookie?. Are the players leaving? Is this the reason for the andriod and ios merge? Or is it the stupid lag that makes me.miss all my redeemers shots and teleporting lag bots? Or do I just suck? So Pix has convinced you that you must be in Champions League. Lots of reasons to not sweat it...The strength of your weapons and bots matter. I know you'll see lots of players with Lvl 8 or 9 wpns or bots in Champions League and some will be quite high...maybe 6 or 7K by the end of the month, but that depends on many factors, boosters, PCs, pilot skills...The issue I find confusing is the difference between the honor points between Masters League and Champions League crates. You gain more of everything by just cycling through to the master crate and then starting over. At the EOM, if your almost at the Champions League crate, and fall back to Masters League, you gain over 7K of PCs and 28M Ag verses 2.5K PC and 18Ag by getting the Champions League crate. Doesn't make sense. Also, if you're not constantly upgrading your stuff, it "seems" like the game will match you against stronger players or place you with weaker players...but only Pix knows how those factor into the MM.

Now that that first wave has passed I'm rising back up through Champions League like a balloon, brawler. Need to score 1st - 3rd to survive the constant death squads. It helps gain Platinum quick too.

I entered Champions League in the Spring of 2018, but never "climbed" until maybe the late summer. At the time I was running Hover, Inquisitor, Spectre, Strider, Pursuer.
Right now, I'm running Loki, Strider, Hover, 2x Jun.
A well-timed Loki or Hover drop brings chaos like no other bot can, btw.
I'll upgrade my Phantom (just got one), some day, or not.
I could hit north of 10k cups every season if I had more time to play.
No crack, no boosters, and prolly 5 beacons average per game.
I've hit 15 beacons several times too, maybe 4 or 5 times now.
I think the key is stick with older builds, max out what you've got, and run them well beyond their "prime".
I've been running Hover for 2 years, it still kills it against pretty much anything but a chronic crackhead.
For fun, longevity, trollability and value, Hover is the by far the best overall bot in the game, 2 years in and it hasn't lost its shine.

Not the Hover is gud thing again.........sheesh....... If the pilot plays by its rules, yes. Nothing else from 2017 or before is as mobile, fast, strong or versatile. No other bot requires the situation awareness that is required in the Hover, and YMMV, no other bot is as fun. Hover until the end.
