Developer Update: Season 23 kick-off week! [EDITED: SEPT 27th] | Forums

[JMS84]

@Ubisoft Hey where is the new characters last year we had a new one for almost every new episode. I get the episode wasn’t that great but you guys at RedLynx had opinions. You could have made the ICE Officer just a common 3 cost fighter. He could have been either Neutral or superhero theme just a low cost opinion like a Heidi or dog Poo. Steven Stotch was in the episode. Or how about when you added Classi randomly we all know you have like 5 superhero cards on the shelf. The season premiere of South Park and no new character :fart:

The season premiere for last season didn't have a new card either, just an outfit and some new voice lines. I'm guessing for a new character next week though.

so another 100+ elo lost to 3 players using either overleveled cards at 7600s or deranked, boring

[Leerog]

They actually made it that its best to just not play the game till legendary reset. No point doing pvp, cause its a sure bet to lose rank with all the deranking ****s.

Clearly this is what Redlynx does... They have a card they need to nerf or buff, which is all they know, so they have a special RNG machine with buff and nerf settings and just throw the card in there and await results.

This can be seen pretty well from the changes to rats and gnomes. If you calculate how much attack and health you get PER 1 ENERGY then you get the following results (calculated with rats at max level 6, and gnomes at max level 5):

Rats Attack = 90.67
Rats Health = 74.67

Gnomes Attack = 132
Gnomes Health = 100.5

So in short gnomes are around 33% better than rats based on what you get for the energy you've spent, with no rhyme or reason behind this whatsoever, with the only logical conclusion being that whoever makes these changes has zero understanding of what they are doing.

[Feco.-]

They will say (if they say anything) that gnomes attack slower.

[lister_infiji]

Yep that was my guess but i don't think rats are over 33% faster (which is what's required to equalise the equation), and even then that still fails to account for the heath difference.

I'd suggest the more accurate answer is simply that they don't spend any proper time on or put any proper thought into these changes, when you weigh cards up against one another.

how can i complete a event when 7 out if 10 games im matched against someone who is 5 levels higher. then even if i do win one of the WAY higher opponents i dont even get event items from the lockers. or 5 if im lucky. It's becoming harsher and harsher. Shorly it shouldn't be that hard to implement a filter so prevent such a huge disadvantage for people and the lockers need to grant a minimum of 5 per win please

Good call on the nerfs and buffs but WHY DOES OPPONENT LEFT THE MATCH STILL COUNTS AS LOSS ON TVT! You offer money packs and "strategically" do special offers with cards that are likely or certain to be in everyone's war deck hoping people will buy them expecting a better result on TVT score, I have bought some myself and then I can't have perfect score on my team because without even entering a fight I get a loss! Also in my other account which is currently in a silver team and under 7000 ELO I get paired with a gold league player with 8500+ ELO, WTF!

About the second part, where you were paired with a Gold League player, that is actually by design. When they changed TW matching, they changed it so that SR would not affect matching, because cheaters were deranking to get easier matches. At the same time, they changed the matching system to base it on league. The matching system will try to match within the same league, or if no matches can be found in your league, it will find a match in the next league down. You were just the unlucky individual on the other side of that roulette wheel.
