First one is the worst beating I’ve had in a very long time. Titan wasn’t even 75% charged. It spawned a customer service spamming of get rid of the bendies. I did about 20 new feedback tickets, several in each category (not the official survey), and did a copy paste of about 100 lines of “get rid of the bendies” on each one. When the feedback gave the auto reply, I pasted it again. Childish, yes. But I felt a lot better. The END guys are really strong - usually if we get one of them on the enemy team it's a short game. I just don't know how they stay alive for so long. Are you hinting at what I was thinking - are they "mini-hackers"...i.e. buff their damage and defense in a way that would never be detectable? They were indestructible. You all know my spending habits, and my hanger is stacked/maxxed. Not killing 1 red hasn't happened in months except if I play beacon where I can get distracted but shiny lights.

I feel like i should be posting this in a wall of shame category, at least for pixonic. what a complete joke of a matchmaker tonite. this is just what i could grab, from the S clan maxed meta princess squad "coward hour". My god. I'm at what, 10/10? if that. And clearly from the screenshots, not in a squad. Shame. Shame. Shame. I think there is a shaming thread or at least there used to be. It's similar to the "Wall of Fame" that I post heroic deeds of players in. Oh, the randoms facing full clan squads is on purpose. Years ago any squad over 3 man used to go into "squad" MM. Pixonic removed this stating "it will speed up match times". Considering 2 new factors since this MM has been removed, it should be reactivated. 1). Platform integration: With the exception of bug fixes and updates, all platforms battle on the same servers now. There is no more 5 minute wait times for matches due to low server numbers. 2). Back-to-back Squad Vs. Randoms matches: It is now common place to face several different 4-6 player squads match after match. If there are this many squads again, why don't they face each other that often? This actually encourages solo players to lay the game down after facing repeated coordinated attacks by the "Red Squad" several matches in a row.

I'm a little late to the party, but throwback to when me and a random loki 4 capped a BEST squad spawn raiding us xD (This battle ends at 7:48, but I go on and play more in the video) - we were able to hold a 4 cap against them for a grand total of 12 seconds, in the timestamp 5:04 - 5:16. My proudest recorded achievement xD

I used to get a few in, couple 1sts or 2nds, in between getting pounded by these S squads. now im seriously wondering when the algorithm is gonna kick me a fair game. The S clannies are getting rewarded with easy vics, much more often than the blue collar squads. These games all last around 2 minutes and over. Frustration aside, those 2 min matches are the fastest way to earn those video ad awards to speed upgrade for free, spin for resources, pilot boosts, etc. hang in, earn your goodies ,play the next one…

This was one of the best games I've played in a while. They had an *FR* player on their team, and a UA player as well, both with fully maxed gear. It was on Canyon, and for some reason I dropped my Khepri first, which is unusual for me. Once I saw those two rampaging towards centre, I started focusing the *FR* guy. I actually killed his maxed Scatter Khepri, and got the centre beacon. He dropped in again, but I started targeting him, I hit him with my Orion. He began avoiding me but I kept targeting him, and the UA guy as well. I eventually went down, and dropped my Heimdall, my sole purpose to wipe out their titans. The UA had a maxed Arthur with the blinding weapons, and never came into range to hit anybody, and I managed to help focus down the *FR* guy's Luchador. I killed his Hawk afterwards, and he botted out. I got to reap the rewards, and got a living legend in my Heimdall. And, this game ultimately requalified me for Champion League.

This was one of the more frustrating matches in a good while. I haven’t faced full squads without at least a duo or more on the blue team in a while. Was 5 capped in DOM in under 2 min. Was able to fight off a few, disengaged from home beacon to draw attention and split them up a bit by trying to grab hill first, then the alley beacon. Worked to prolong the inevitable a bit as some of my team followed suit, but with such an early 5 cap there was no coming back. If reds weren’t a full squad with maxed gear, maybe. My team seemed pretty savvy.

As painful as this was we played it till the end. It's so horrid it should be in MM rants. Full Champ squad with maxed everything Vs. Randos 1Champ 5Master of varying ranks. We only managed 1 kill by the whole team focus firing the same target.

Was facing RT Clan when people just refused to spawn in. Cowardly players just get my curse words flowing. Big ups to RT Clan, sadly you guys have to deal with this crapola. I was one of the lowest ranked players yet spawned the only titan and took first place. Take your butt whoopin like a trooper and get the match over with.

I swear there are fewer randoms left. Everyone but squadders has left the game. My win % has dropped from 76% to 46% in three days. I’ve had 3 wins in 3 days of playing.

Literally my whole clan on the reds lol I was with them for a while before that, I'm in UK time, they are in USA time, so was well past midnight when I came off. Good to know they were still kicking 「bum-bum」 after I left, sorry you had to be a victim lol Props to you for staying in the game and fighting

Nah, they are feeding randoms TO the squads. Squads hardly face each other as much as they should considering randoms can play against squads 8/10 matches sometimes.

I want to start a thread to give props to those honorable players who never leave a battle, not matter the odds. Stand by your teammates, honor the blue, and die trying. Initial thoughts are you need to have been outdone at least 2:1 in TDM (e.g. - 36-18). More honor the worse the match went. Please offer suggestions for BR/DOM, but I think it would have to be more time based, like if the match is done in under 5 min, with more honor for those done in under 3. We’d need to rely on people telling the truth in those because I doubt most folks would screenshot the end of match timing in time. This was one of my better outings against impossible odds. Damage was high, but I just could not take enough down to make a meaningful difference. Pretty sure I surprised some of them with the whoop「bum-bum」 I laid on some of them. I cleared our spawn briefly at one point. And thatâs what this thread is about - the small wins in the brutal losses. This has taken me to the end very far, as much as i hate losing, it's a part of the game, and giving it your all when the odds are almost against you is key, i live to help my teammates and fight the reds myself, but in the end, most importantly, do remember one teammate can make a difference, and sometimes change the course of matches, it all depends on wether a person can combine skill with their meta gear, or even a wildcart weapon, or bot.

Yep , never quit- lol me not my teammates here . 2 last nite, 2 today, only difference was we had 3 that stayed blue, 3 quit against 4/6 squaddies all champs. It’s tough. Weekend had the clans and squads out in force, I didn’t play much, just tinkering around in my hangar.

Yep , never quit- lol me not my teammates here . Worst part by far is given how you did with this staggering odds, if those other blues stayed, you may have pulled it out. I feel bad coming out of my last match. I laid waste to a masters 4 man squad. 16 kills, 6 beacons. It doesn’t feel much better on the winning side. Kudos for staying in - that one is pretty bad…

This VOX duo were absolutely tearing up the field last night - but they still couldn't penetrate my Skyros. Running beacons is now my prime way of defeating squads/duos. I was taken out, but dropped my Kheori and absolutely smoke one of their Muros with my Orion, and killed a couple of their Khepris.

This match was actually super close, but seeing a full squad spawn usually scares at least one person off. No one dropped. The only reason we lost was that red who got 11 beacons was running a Loki no one could kill for nearly half the match. Most of the blues were heavy hitters and it was one of the funnest matches I’ve had in a good while. Stick em out people, you never know….

Facing sure annihilation, we still charge. That is so awesome that no one bailed. Looks like the lowest blue may have after a few bots of futility, but depends on their level.

This was a pair of sizeable beatdowns. Both of them I was paired with far lower leaguers. The one with VOX on the red side, that blue clan was a low master an expert and a gold player. Didn’t stand a chance, but they fought coordinated and didn’t bail so kudos. The WICK fight was a butt whipping.

WICK’s new strategy is to launch 6 Khepris, speed race to turn every beacon red, leaving a single Khepri on each beacon. Once the beacon is red, you’re not moving a Khepri on a beacon easily. 5-capped in under 1 minute and couldn’t turn a single one even white. I tried pushing their spawn and there was literally. Khepri playing defense on ever beacon along the way. If you see WICK opposite you, make turning beacons blue asap #1 priority.

I genuinely don't know why I'm getting matched with so many duos recently. I'm surprised I managed to take the top here, wasn't expecting to do so well. Every time I encounter a full squad now, my Skyros is on beacons.
