I was trying hard to get to 900 for Panther but best I managed at one point was 845. This was SCL 7.

Every match I slogged through for 30-35 points would be met by an equal or greater loss immediately afterwards, sometimes two losses.

Eventually finished with 744 in 49th place which 5 mins after the event ended became 53rd.

As someone who has a dozen only just champed 3 stars and 4 stars with only 1 or 2 covers should I not be entering SCL 7/8? I’m soon to hit rank 55 fyi.

Another thing to consider: An opponent with the same Points as you is Worth 38 Points. When you run out of 40+ Point targets, that means you are one of the highest available targets around, and people will be very tempted to hit you. It’s a very good time to shield up and wait for more high Points targets to become available (make sure to find good matches Before dropping your shield though).

This, 100%. If more ppl followed this advice rather than just hoping they won’t get hit there would be far fewer of these sorts of posts. I have to do this, and my roster is an awful lot bigger than the OP’s.

Insightful advice by Quebbster: opponent worth 38 points have the same score as you. I’m three months in this game and I just knew that.

Easy way to remember " if you are out of targets, YOU are the target"

Yes, possible points range from 1-75, so it makes sense that 38 would be for someone with same points. A 75pt q is like someone who’s c. 900pts higher than you.

It didn’t seem to be specifically mentioned earlier that as a 3* roster, you are a huge target once you approach 900 points. Anyone looking to get to 900 will be looking for easy fights to get over the line, and champed 3’s are such a gimme, they would wonder if it’s a trap cake. If you want to get to 900, you’ll need to shield hop.
