I'll go for the reward every season. But I really do not have fun playing the PvP for these rewards. It's a miserable experience. Frontlines is so horribly balanced.

Something also worth mentioning is that the Malmstone rewards aren't actually related to Crystalline Conflict. Calling it a "Crystalline Conflict Glamour Coffer" gives the wrong idea that you can only do CC to earn it.
All PvP modes will earn you series exp.

Then don’t do it. Simple as that.
You aren’t even restricted to do CC to gain series level unless you’re trying to grind through ASAP. (in which case: work for it)
Basically any PvP, including Frontlines will give you progress.
I just wish I could queue up with friends in premade groups. The rage at people playing like they don't have hands is something nobody wants to experience. Let me play with my friends against other premade groups.
PVP Series rewards are fine as is..,
in the long term, more rewards won't fix or improve pvp either.[I think there should even be a ranked Series, that basically is one/two Series rewards ahead of the current one. thus making it exclusive to ranked. and it's exp being higher, the more wins and higher bracket you're in. this isn't covering t100, as exclusivity there is kinda pointless to exist as seasons age<so debate that in a old thread if you want>]
Just needs more nice adjustments and content.<as it isn't fully in a, do it if you like it stage for ranked>.
[and tbh, like said more rewards, unless benefiting different pvp content/goals. or it's speed in acquiring its rewards won't get more players to enjoy/partake in the content. but make it's Drought longer.]
(The whole, partake cause they enjoy it.., needs to be the goal.)
and like others said, it would make current/future rewards much more special. and reason to keep play time in PVP if you're required to complete old Series/Passes before getting to the new/latest Rewards.
<Thus natural progression/rewards for new, or old players that missed out.>
It's not too bad, but it'd be less bad if PvP wasn't awful at the moment.
I do very much dislike how they've added FOMO style mechanics to the game, though. Yet another thing that goes against the supposed "It's fine to play other games!" thing YoshiP keeps saying.
It takes only 4 hours. 4 hours of gameplay to get to that rank. If you dont wanna bother spending 4 hours in PvP, thats fine. But dont expect PvP based rewards. Is it that hard to think, that you dont actually need to own everything?
What's your strat for doing it in 4 hrs?
Obviously numbers pulled out of nowhere (but I have a guess)
Rough numbers but in total you need around 88000 pvp xp to get to lvl 25.
You can do more or less 12 CC matches per hour (5 min), so 8400 pvp xp per hour.
So for 4 hours you’d get between 33 600 pvp xp with only lost matches, 43 200 pvp xp with only wins.
Still far from the total needed even with the odd few 12+ matches per hour and that’s not counting the queue time that isn’t always instant.
So either it’s related to win-trading to have the quickest matches possible (already seen and done in ranked and why it has 0 value), or talking out of his bum.
Can’t say for sure. I’ll be glad to be proven wrong though, so I’ll use that trick to finish the BP quick.

I have completed S2 under 5h of gameplay time. It was pretty fast. Ofc I dont count quee times. Yeah, it takes longer if you lose most matches, but still. Its way too quick to count it as "long grind".Obviously numbers pulled out of nowhere (but I have a guess)
