Hello,
I am doing a little research project of my own. I would appreciate some help from Silver League II players, either iOS or Android platform are acceptable.
Here's what I need: a picture of your current hangar you run and whether you are on iOS or Android. If you would like to mark over your ID that is totally understandable as that is not needed for the project.
Hopefully I will be able to extrapolate from this with other information gathered from the forum for all of the new League levels to satisfy my curiosity.
The data collected will not be a definite answer for everything, but I hope it will point to some trends. Which when completed I can share.
If you wish not to participate I fully understand.
For those that do, Thank-you in advance.
Old man

I didn't realize when I posted the first time, but all weapons are level nine-ish.

Hangar is a junior clan mate. The Gareth recently replaced a Zeus Carnage, which at this level is a killing machine, but he says the Gareth is more fun.

Duodec like that hangar reminds me of an old clan mate of mine. All level 12/12. Rather be on his side.

If you get enough replies from Silver 2, you may not want this, but I thought I'd throw it in... my hangar from fairly high in Silver 3... Good luck with your project!

Why don't you head over to the introduce yourself thread and say Hi to everybody and maybe post a pic of your hangar.? Hit the Home upper left, scroll down and you will see it.

Hey old man. I have a theory. I played my daughters qualifying matches. She was lv 5 and went up to 7 by the time all 5 matches was done I won 4/5 matches with consistent top 3 on all 5 on damage averaging at 100K or so. It placed her right smack in Recruit league. I thought it would have placed her higher but I noticed that her account had not been played very much (maybe 20+ games or so). So I think average damage from previous games and wins are also factored in to your league placement.

dangit Here is my Profile. Don't mind the Gold 3 ranking. This is the exact same hangar i used in qualifying when I got placed in silver 2 (android). It might even provide some good insights.

Here you go. I am sure you will see some members maintain their League position (points from game win/loss rankings) by damage, heavier bots, and some by beacons, lighter bots. I could probably push into Silver I right now by increasing my damage with a different hangar (swap Gareth for Thunder Carnage) , but I prefer this hangar. I am making an assumption that I earn more gold capping beacons than maxing damage and would love to hear if your research, or other players, have perspectives on that. Thanks.

Blastronaut you are my hero if this is the same hangar you are using to maintain that Gold III status at 1733 points. Did you rebuild the hangar for Old Man and this post or is that really the average damage you do with this hangar? If this is you Gold III hangar then I ain't half the pilot I thought I was. lol

Thump Yes, this is 100% legit, it's what I am using right now for Gold III.

Damn. Good for you. Bar just got set a bit higher for me now. I can see hitting that average damage in that hangar but did not think it capable of getting up 2 Leagues. Good to know. I have some leveling to do. Chat again some time.

Thump I should add that i just straight-up skip any match in Springfield or Yama. Springfield because of the uneven beacon placement and Yama because it favors mid/long range too heavily.

Wonder if I should do that. Yamantau is a bloody nightmare unless you are in a good squad and have some longer ranged bots.

You can click on the profiles of all the players in your league and look at their hangars

Not making any major progress today. A few new upgrades though. Guess I'm doing okay, I keep running into higher level bots.

The MM is kicking guys that got too high and got lucky in qualifying matches and uneven matchups since the reshuffle and the good ones are moving up. A few more days and the matches should be fairly consistent.

Hope so. I was thankful at the end of some losing matches... tankers or drops sucked up the -20 that might have been mine.
