    The only way to win at feast is not to play

    I hit over 1000 points. I should have stopped. Why did I not stop. Aarrrghhh

    After getting about 5 disconnected on my teams (instant -120ish points), a handful of new healers, unbalanced matchups, I fell down to silver and am now not even in the top 100, sitting around 600 points. The more I play the worse it gets, no forward progress with RNG.

    I should have stopped.

    So word of warning, if you get ~900-~1000 points. Stop. Do not keep going. Just sit there and rake in your rewards at the end. Really, the only way to win is not to play.

    This is so discouraging.

    Just had a match with someone going for gold , another for silver, and a brand new healer who has never done pvp before.

    Talk about depression. I would hate to have been either of these guys on my team.

    I know what you mean. I was Silver and on my way to Gold at 887...in under a day I was demoted back to Bronze. I wish I'd just stopped and tried to hold on for 99th place now.

    Verrry interesting/ grim topic lol. At 864 silver now and I'm seriously debating whether to block the idea of rewards from my mind altogether and just enjoy the fights come what may or play like a mother with a newborn gold baby in her arms. Would probably settle for 1k-stop if 16-man que time wasnt so bad now lol...to say nothing of frontlines/seal. Buuuuut I hear those "Nothing ventured, nothing gained" and "You'll never make the great anything by playing it safe' lines in my head....
