An awesome idea just came to me. An MM that adds total team bot HP and total team DPS. Add to it a mild modifier for win/loss. Then teams can be mixed not only by levels but numbers. E.g 5 Masters vs 6 Experts or... 6 experts vs 18 silvers That would be awesome!

Got my Leo. I am happy?. I have been getting much better matches today. My win percent went up 2% I felt like it should have went up more. I only got 2 champions beat down today. We one one. But mostly a couple expert with the rest diamond. I think more people are on. The pool seems deeper. How far have you gotten? I got my Leo too but why I can't transfer that skin to my other Leo that is lvl 9. I thought when you buy skins they become part of your inventory, but they are actually tied to a robot.

acdcfan now I'm around the Lv 8-9 now and I feel 12/12 are gradually having less of an effect against me. I get my kicks out of playing with a group of friends in a squad and leveraging on an OP opponents stupidity/greed. I found large maps especially Springfield & Yam victory can be snatched from them because rarely will they stay put on decisive ground rather than get more damage position themselves to cover a teammate capturing rather than have dibs in a beacon capture. It's always fun to see a team with 2x the overall HP and 1.5x the offensive output lose because they're selfish and stupid. I have 2 Griffs lvl 10, one is RDB lvl 11 pins and lvl 10 tulus, second one with lvl 11 mags and lvl10 tarans lvl 10 galahad ( soon to be lvl 10) wiht lvl 11 mags and lvl 10 taran lvl11 Gareth with lvl 10 pinata and lvl 9 orcan lvl 9 Leo, lvl 9 thunder and lvl 11 mags That is my current hangar... The rest of the bots in my hangar are not higher than lvl 8, so can't quite use them in expert 2/3. I am close to getting maxed out hanger but it will take another 2 -3 months to have everything at lvl 12 before I can start updating remaining bots

for actual fading you actually have to play, as if you drop too fast in league points and win% (which is what droppers do, i.e., th epeople who don't actually drop a bot) you will end up in Leavers Box, where multi-league is actually the default mode. Those 100 games will have to be at least 300 minutes with a modicum of damage done. That's 6 full hours of losing games. Really? I will use one bot do some damage until I get killed and not spawn again. Then put the phone down and wait for battle to finish, while I am doing something else. I believe levers box is where people leave the game during map countdown or tank the game. I am not doing that. I am two seconds away from doing exactly this. The last event was tons of fun until the middle rewards when "win x battles" became a priority. This event has blown chunks from day one. In a spectacular move Pixonic has decided to show that near endless losing streaks isn't the worst they can do. The last four matches my side was completely meched out. If they were using the previous League Point distribution system I would have seriously lost it by now. If Pix had a clue and removed "win x battles" like some of us pointed out then the bottomless suck wouldn't have been as bad because the swag would still be there. Thank you for posting this thread O.P. Needed a break from the stress.

My win rate has dropped to <30%, while the stupid MM keeps me at a constant amount of league points. Of course, I need 10 more wins for the event tasks. It's 300 points "down" to Gold I for me, let's see how long it takes to get there with my updated hangar of mostly light and medium bots. Also avoiding to do damage seems reasonable. If you see that the match is lost because the first dudes on your team mech out, just don't do more damage than necessary. I'll focus on beacon capping for now.

I've been seeing the same on my Android. I'm at Silver 1 and I often see Diamond 1-3 on both red and blue teams. I'm getting smoked by guys with 10-12 level hangers. I'm at 7-8 on my bots and weapons. It was bad before the event, my w/l % dropped to 28% at one point, but has gotten worse during this event. I just started playing right before the anniversary event but am getting really frustrated. 10 battles and 10 losses today to start. Getting the kills or captures isn't a problem, winning matches is. or it goes the other way. I'll get red team on par with me but the blues are low Silver or occasionally bronze. I briefly hit Gold III even while losing yesterday but dropped back down today. I'm still building my hanger and I need the event items to help round it out but I can't even get started on the Aphid steps. And no I'm not in LQ. I never leave matches and fight to win each battle.

I feel your pain. I got to within 1 point of gold 3, (1 goshdarn point!!) And the stupid MM went into smack down mode. Every match the only silver shoehorned in with gold and diamond players. Even the server lag went thru the roof, and some how the game's targeting went completely mental. Evidently I'm supposed to be more worried about those bots that are outta my range than the guy chewing up my ride from 300m or so away. I mean, seriously, I've got this guy right in front of me I'm toggling as fast as my thumb will go and all I'm getting are the guys some 800m plus in the back.

E.g 5 Masters vs 6 Experts or... 6 experts vs 18 silvers That would be awesome! My Zenit Furry will be effective... in destroying the embarrassment that this suggestion is.

I don't know what's going on, while i was on the win task for the Aphid my win rate dropped to <30%, as soon as it was finished it recovered rather quickly to around 50%. - is this just me skrewing up because i am desperate to win and do the wrong things? - just a coincidence with a lot of other people being on other tasks, say, kill robots (and don't give a cr@p about winning)? - some other shenanigans?
