This is really fisking annoying. Although my shard doesn't have any whales (there are some light/medium pay players in there) some days it is alright (yesterday I took #1), but then nights like tonight I was literally dropping rank as soon as I gained it and at crunch time sat there unable to do anything because I was locked out of playing.
This is a really bad system. A system that revolves around sniping at a particular time (that we cannot choose) and can lock us out of play (with no recourse) at that particular time leaves a bad play experience for me and I would assume others.
If you are going to keep a system that encourages sniping at least let us modify our reward payout time to fit better with our lives.

Brutal lesson though ☺️
Yes, That will teach you from trying to protect yourself from all the unethical snipers...
Unethical snipers?
I did not want to use six curse words on the message board
I like your idea but I'm uncertain if they can implement a live system. What would be a happy medium is to have the system they do now, but issue the rewards for winning as you described, but against the computer instead, takes away the problem people are having with cheaters immediately!!!
You can't give rewards for winning because the big dog would never get attacked
The way arena is done is quite flawed both in the issue stated and how you can jump up and down rank so much. I give them credit for at least trying though.
Taking rank 1 early will delay u as ur client need to reflect updated rankings. That delay itself will allow snipers to start the match against u.
Also... OP i wonder if you are in my server? Your comments kinda match the description of mine. My IGN is still Ptolemy, i usually snipe 1 and then get booted back to 12 or so
Have you ever wondered why in a PVP environment, you can use (crystals) to gain an advantage over the other?
I think if I were one timezone East I would get #1 daily, now I get semi-frequent lockouts.
Really for all you know 95 teams out of the top 100 on your server are not even real people. They could create teams made up of all chromium only characters that have no owner, while you petulantly spend money to knock off ghost players.
This "game" is a casino, but you have no ability to win anything. Which is what keeps games like this from being illegal gambling. You don't win anything. It's like you and I placing a bet, except you are betting cash and I am betting ideas.
I get happy when I see him rank 40+ now
