    The only rewards you miss out on by playing casually or staying in Bronze are framer kits.
    This is like saying PotD doesn't respect your time because Necromancer is a huge time sink and not achievable by everyone.
    There are issues with the new PvP system, but this absurd anti-dev hyperbole doesn't help.
    PotD is entirely tied to the persons skill level. Not random matchmaking. "Showered with rewards". What?

    Yeah good luck with treasure rooms being second room on 187+ and the exit being there. Either you had good floors before which let you save time, or you're screwed/will use all your good pomanders. And then you have to hope there's nothing too nasty going forward. PotD is RNG at its peak, and it's always been how players deal with this RNG that made it compelling to those who run it. And the problem is that RNG only starts factoring in once you reach 160+, with a massive and boring grind before that.

    And yet it's still dependent on player skill.

    Not 100%. If the RNG is stacked against you, it is what it is. But you're not going to get dragged down by the mistakes of others either which is what counts I suppose.

    Which is why bringing up potd is a dumb counter argument.
