Droid Champions League 208 5194 Very interesting! So there's like 10,000 Android Champions League players in the "just above Champions League" line. That tells me Pix has been pushing people up faster than they should be, likely with hangers that are made for Masters league or lower. (No judgement here. That's just an observation and in no way is a commentary on skill level) Thanks! Allot of them on Android pushed themselves up playing FFA only or mostly....... Then when they think they are all that we find them on the regular game modes being dookie heads.

Then when they think they are all that we find them on the regular game modes being dookie heads. That would make sense. I haven't played FFA since I came back. It's a completely different game, so if they're switching into a beacon based game, they could easily be unprepared mentally. This is unfortunate, but I think the bigger travesty is that my 11000+ cups (this is a personal high btw, I suspect coming from the new ranking points system giving out more points) is being thrown in with 5000 cups players on either team. I hate that I'm running into players at this level because I don't want to club on newer players. With all of the influx of higher level players across multiple platforms, I would think the MM could easily match me with an entire group composed of those who have 6000+ cups and all of this silliness could be avoided. Games get exciting, skills get honed and everyone is happy.

The merge added more players but that wasnt the real problem IMO. The real problem was and always has been their forced losing/ make players mad so they spend BS IMO.

Totally agree they need to upgrade their algorithm. On a side note, KAOS ran into KOMM again over the weekend on Yam playing DOM. Y'all had 5 (including Jame-thon) and a crappy random and it was a close win for y'all. Lots of CB trades and heated fighting. Not our best team, but a 5v6 win is nothing to shake a stick at. LECHE scored 5 mil and easily made up for the rando. lol.

LOL I have had a few wins in squad over your clan but I have seen some post on our discord where it looks like your clan smacked back on some of our guys. so we are probably in the same boat and about equal any given sunday. We do have a few newer members not up to speed on teamplay or tactics yet but the core players are solid like yours are I bet. Meaning squads are like a box of chocolates you just never know what you will get. I look forward to the meetings against your clan as they are awesome fights. Those few I have played against your clan took allot of thought and down to the end smart play.

Surprised at his score, he's typically very solid.

EyeDoc's been in KAOS for as long as I can remember, back to when I was playing 6/6 about a year and a half. Maybe it's not the same guy, but I don't know. He's a good player. He could have just gotten in a bad situation or 2 in this one. I know he fiddles with his hanger occasionally tweaking it.
