I think they did it.
I think they actually solved it.
And I probably should have realised this before skipping Springfield and Yamantau during my 5-battles-to-move-up-to-Diamond.
I lost 20 cups for each time I skipped, and now I'm back down to the middle of the pack in Gold I. It hurts.

But ditchers would want to lose cups and drop down leagues so they can be right at the bottom kicking Destrier 「multiple dookie delivery chute」 with their gepards and lancelots.

Lol tank exploit If anything, leagues further encourage tanking. Get your once per lifetime league reward and then drop down. Not only that, but it's quicker to drop than it is to go back up.

Pixo did mention they're working on a solution for ditch and tank that might be implemented in the next couple patches.

Think we need clarification on what you mean by 'ditching' and 'skipping' which both used in the OP.
Skipping would be not dropping first bot and leaving before 15 sec countdown. Are you saying doing this will penalize you 20 cups?

This is a good thread. I want to stay in Gold II. I don't want to stay. I want to go up. It means, I get better. Sir, May i ask what bots you use, level of bots/weaps and how many hangars you have? I am just preparing for higher tiers, i have 4 hangars, lvl 6 RDB griffin with lvl 6 pins and tulums. Lvl6 griffin with lvl 6 aphids and tarans. Lvl 6 leo with lvl 7 thunder and mags and pin. Lvl 6 leo with lvl 7 thunder and lvl 6 pins. With a hangar like mine, would i survive in higher tiers? if i want to, i can go up to gold I easily but would i survive there? I just follow fail to prepare and prepare to fail. I can't also play while upgrading my gear because it would be too slow. Hence, i would like to stay in Gold II until im strong enough to push towards higher tier. I'm not sure why i am answering like this but i was mildly offended but if that was not your intent, please excuse me if i seem to have misunderstood you. Thank you for quoting me. Good day to you.

Sure, here you go: No other accounts, no bots to tank, nothing out of the ordinary. Edit: No offence meant.

Yours would walk over mine any day. It funny though, the gareth, galahad and rhino were the ones i'm looking to have in the near future. Dream hangar right there for me. Good job.

What about this 3 Reds ditched after like a minute. It was an easy win but not very satisfactory

But ditchers would want to lose cups and drop down leagues so they can be right at the bottom kicking Destrier 「multiple dookie delivery chute」 with their gepards and lancelots. I don't see the point in tanking or ditching. you purposely lower your score to fight easy targets and then your score goes back up and you end up where you started. seems pointless to me.

Lol they win 10 gold for every match on their way up I get gold without needing to ditch. Says something about their skill.

Asian chicks love this game. IU, Korean singer and actress. Several of her songs achieved what is known to the Koreans as PAK, perfect all kills across their music charts, meaning they topped every chart in the same interval for a couple of weeks or more. It's hard to do that among all the girl group and guy group competition. My pic came from her recent drama, Salt's pic came from a CF, a commercial film. Well, Salt might be IU who suddenly found herself with an excellent grasp of the English language, but I'm just a regular fan. She is likely the bane of Indiana University. Google puts IU at the top of her searches, and she dominates YouTube with her videos. I always find it hilarious when I google for IU and see Indiana University lurking at the bottom.

Lots of cover, not that long, and no huge open area's to cross. A fast bot can get to Red's spawn really quick and create havoc if they aren't paying attention.

It's important to note that it is much harder to drop rank in new league system. I think Pix did a good job on controlling the rate of drop.
Pre-League: 50 games to completely drop your avg dam to zero. New League: -20 per loss, +2 coming in last place on wins. Assuming 50% win ratio, you lose 9 league points per game. For someone with 2000 league points it would take 222 games to reset.
So Pixonic successfully made it 4 times harder to drop rank. That should bring comfort to those that hate ditchers.
