I decided to chill on the last tournament and beat up on some guy who kept hitting me the the tournament before. I hit him about 5-6 times and his points never went down. Some times his points even went up. He was in the top 1/2 spot every time i checked the rankings. Each time I beat him I got 40+ points because I was chillin at the bottom of the ranks. What gives? Am I the only one who loses points when I get attacked or what?

I had less than 100 points when I started attacking him, while he had 400+. I got up to 200+ points from solely beating him ![icon_twisted.gif](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex023/uploads/x505go/original/2X/7/7fc2d9cf701d2c2c22729238172e5be83405063f.gif)  
and somehow he got to 450+.

note to self: don’t piss off zzzwolph.

participating in every tournament has led me to the dreaded i feel burned out feeling. i haven’t felt this way since i started playing religiously since the game came out.

i don’t particularly like these series of tournament ssimply because the top 50 will always be generally filled by the same 100 ppl out of thousands.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I can’t even place in the top 100 unless I play for the whole 90 minutes straight, even then it depends on how many people want to repeatedly attack me ![icon_cry.gif](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex023/uploads/x505go/original/2X/3/32f6ceaa7d5688cd07af33175e20b625b60d84be.gif)

and all I wanted was that darned yellow The Hood cover

I was just particularly annoyed at this one person because I held top 2 for the whole tournament and they kept attacking me. Just as the tournament was about to end, I got hit by two other people as well and dropped to under the top 10

Sorry, I’m just attacking whatever that comes up in the last 5-10 mins as I’m scrambling for points. For some reason it’s usually the same 6-10 people as I’m skipping for optimal matches. I noticed a couple people attack me multiple times as well. ![icon_cry.gif](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex023/uploads/x505go/original/2X/3/32f6ceaa7d5688cd07af33175e20b625b60d84be.gif)  
not much you can do with the way it pairs you up with others.

That’s the problem with the matchups. It keeps giving you the same 5-8 people and you’re forced to attack them even if they give crap points.

The matchup system needs to be more varied in selections.

damn, saw it was close between you and someone else for 2nd just now. You’ll get there, I’ll steer clear of the main race on the next few, just rack up some easy iso I think. Need to continue grinding to 3000 on the red iso missions.
