Lightning Rounds! Aka How many tournaments?!

Lightning rounds back up and running.

Go go gadget lightning rounds!

well that took me by surprise, it started so randomly this week

It’s probably to facilitate users in different regions.

Time to tank my rating for the 8pm and 10pm PST mags/rags icon_e_biggrin.gif

now this tanking strat is widely known, i’m wondering how many people this week will be tanking for random tourneys and causing skyrockets. (probably compete today only in one or two tourneys, too busy at work)

man i might aim for top 8 jus to finish my hood…whos gonna attack a 40 hood/102 rag / 95 mag? icon_e_biggrin.gif

i hate hood tourneys, that is all.

Me. But I’m nice.

you might think you have a team that dissuades people from attacking you but gd this game will show that there’s no one that gets dissuaded (my rag/drdoom/spidey team being attacked by a modern storm being one evidence)

Yea I have a 115 rag/112 mag/80 doom, but I’m still attacked quite often, especially enough to not be able to get the Top 2 for Magneto icon_evil.gif

The number of high level Rags saddens me greatly… guess I won’t be getting those missing covers for almost all villains any time soon icon_neutral.gif
(not mentioning the exam tomorrow icon_e_wink.gif
)

on second thought hood tournaments stinks and hood isnt that good…let the bag-man commence!

I don’t think it works anymore anyway. Rating is adjusting based on your score now, much more than it used to, or so it seems. Didn’t stop me from trying, though.

Your score for what?

Tanking for hood tournaments is super effective. Went from 260 to 80 in 10 minutes icon_e_smile.gif

If i’m correct, tanking is based on the amount of people that hit you, not your score. so going from 260 to 80 with 20 people hitting you is the same as going from 100 to 80 with 20 people hitting you in another tourney.

Is it just me..or does there seem to be a muuuch higher # of maxed thors in teams now? Also (not surprising) lots of dooms in the 30s and 50s.

Yea, thats what i always suspected. That’s why even when i tank i go up to 250+ rating first so i’m more enticing to hit.

There’s always been max thors…maybe you finally moved up to a decent MMR lol
