I always choose CL8 and stayed there for TaT. I’m playing my best ever is this one too. I usually struggle for t100 in new release events, however 12 hours after my initial clear in the 3rd sub and I’m still in 15th place. A t10 finish is absolutely realistic for me, which is incredible because I don’t make t10 on regular events!!!
I forgot to do a clear of the one node on the main event page yesterday. If that 200 points make the difference between a top 10 finish or not I’ll be a little annoyed. (Not very though, 2 covers for a new release is still quite nice.)
Huh. I actually made t50 after all. Weird, since I missed it in the first three subs, and was like 47th in the fourth. I guess there were enough other people who weren’t hitting all four subs well that it let me climb up a bit in the overall.
I ended up ranked #9 in CL8, using only 4*s except for a level 300 Thanos on the trivial nodes. Looking forward to when these tests become the new normal.
I always choose slice 5, the 6 pm ending time make it the only sensible option. I went with CL8, so that I have some idea of what’s coming in the future.
I have no 5* over level 310, my best 4* are around that level, and I’m seeing nodes that max out about 50 levels higher than I was seeing before. But I don’t really care. As long as each event has someone boosted that can one-shot or nearly one-shot the worst of the opposition, it doesn’t matter.
In this case it’s 4* Iron Fist, whose black does about 28k damage. He and 4* Blade and Cloak & Dagger have made this event almost a walk of cake. I should make top 10, unless real life commitments this evening get in the way. And that would be better than usual.
:edit: #7. I is content.
I ended up placing #14, less than 300 points shy of t10. Still very happy, by far my best placement ever for a new release.
Lost 8 places due to scaling caused sniping. Don’t fix the scaling with out looking at fully champed whales playing down in CL5-6
I did pretty well, but I also started super late and lucked into a flipped SCL 8 Slice.
Between a graduation BBQ on the beach in Kailua and my Father’s Day dinner, I finished 37th. The scaling wasn’t bad or Bl4de is almost as good as JG boosted for pve.
I barely missed T20 in SCL7 (22), but I also had life concerns that kept me from playing optimal. I did hit each node for at least 6, only hit 7 on the final node. For the level of effort the reward was OK, I expected to be in to T20, but again I wasn’t nearly as optimal as I would have liked to be.
Got t5, scl8, prejoin and S3. 4* roster. Wasn’t expecting t10 on a test and NR.
I fell up in placement. What a glorious change.
