    Of course, getting 1st eight times will still net you more EXP than getting 2nd with the bonus would.
    This is actually incorrect. Getting 2'nd place does not increase the loss streak EXP bonus, but it also doesn't reset it. To put the system plainly...

    1'st Place: Resets the EXP bonus.
    2'nd Place: Does not increase or reset the EXP bonus.
    3'rd Place: Increases the EXP bonus.

    All places are effected by the EXP bonus you currently have. So, a 1'st place with a high bonus might give 600 PvP EXP, then the bonus is reset.

    Fairly sure the maximum EXP bonus possible is 50%, resulting in 600, 450, or 300 EXP depending on place at the end of a match.

    Ah ok, didn't know that it wouldn't increase if you had 2nd. Thnx dude.
