> [@The Ladder](#): > > ☹ 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. Thanks, I’m out for now though. I appreciate you not attacking me all the time ![icon_e_biggrin.gif](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex023/uploads/x505go/original/2X/9/9da0ce06e62533a4e29efe560c9926ab2566ea47.gif) I think you only attacked me 1-2 times in those tournaments so far. I tend to skip names I recognize from the forums, but sometimes I have no choice due to the limited selection in matchmaking. I got top two twice only, and both were for Dr. Doom. I think you got first place both times I was up there. Do people attack you or are they too scared? ![icon_lol.gif](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex023/uploads/x505go/original/2X/d/df075d9b4a1733c0e2bc1aadb0aa6d547e345497.gif) ---

Yeah, I do try to avoid forum goers if I can, but the limited matchups dont help. Your lineup is one of the better ones, there’s much softer options to go for as well! I was attacked once in the last event, they ended up yielding 5 points to me lol. The ones before that, I was victim of multiple attackers, but got the better of them. Usually Classic Storm combos, so I can only surmise that the Tempest exploit is in play there. Either that, or they are genius players ![icon_twisted.gif](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex023/uploads/x505go/original/2X/7/7fc2d9cf701d2c2c22729238172e5be83405063f.gif) ---

I lost only like 10 points on your retaliation and was getting 30-20+ on each win. Still sadly my team of L70 storm and L50 Raganarok didn’t look so intimidating like yours so I got dropped to Top 8 x2 in the final moments. Tempest was not really important but Ragnarok can help fill Wind Storm very quickly. ---

Fair dues. I noticed that with someone else who was attacking me they were nicking 10 and I was taking 25. Charity always welcome lol. Well done on the win/2nd ---

Yeah that’s all I’ve been doing is getting to 100 points for the two Iso and one 1 star reward, too. Maybe once the tournaments calm down I’ll make a push for the top 1 or 2 tiers but not yet. ---

It’s hard to be critical of events which have more than likely boosted everyone’s card collection and iso stacks considerably, but I reckon it would be better for these to run 2 or 3 times a day. One to suit each timezone. Maybe that will happen, once the initial rollout is out of the way. Serious burnout is going to affect some players. I’m starting to tire mentally from the constant playing this game. ---

i’m with theladder. i think mine (and his and other’s personalities) are highly competitive so we competed like crazy the first couple and it led to some mental burn out. i just get the 100 or 250 prize and call it quits now, mericfully [Previous page](https://forums.505go.com/t/lightning-round-tournament-discussion/292.md?page=4) [Next page](https://forums.505go.com/t/lightning-round-tournament-discussion/292.md?page=6)
