So lets say i stay in silver league. Then i go from max 500 steel every week to max 600 steel very 2 weeks. Nice meme.

Gold is even "better": From max 600 steel every week to max 400 steel every 2 weeks.

I think you misread the graphic. 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 Wins means you get 200 steel for each number, so a total of 1000 steel for 15 wins plus 200 for rank 1 and not a total of 400 for wins plus rank 1.

Please pay attention to Silver league first item: 3,6,9 wins.. that means for each you will get 200 steel. So 200 steel for 3 wins, after that 200 steel for 6 wins etc.

@ThePurpleSmurf was faster than me with the same reply :cap_like:

Ah that makes sense. :Smile_great:

 

Maybe just a suggestion.

My plan:

Rank out Bronze, qualify for Silver. (800 steel)

Play silver up to at least 12 battles. (800 steel per session)

 

If silver is going well, I could qualify for gold and aim for 15 wins.

 

The trick with this new system is to play and not think about your rank. Play it like randoms.

 

Rewards are neither great nor terrible. I'm a little surprise there is no big steel payoff for reaching rank 1.

Probably once they did that before, it felt too long in comparison to the previous one.

But anyway, I can mention, that 3.6.9 part was confusing.

Not directly signal flags, but:

Rewards for Rankeds changed a lot over time. I hope atleast these containers will be appreciated.

Reaching rank 1 gives you a crate that lets you have a chance at some Signal Flags, amongst other things.

OK. 

Lets say that you stand lucky enough and reach rank 1 within 10 battles. You still get the rewards for the remaining wins? Probably not. So this will tend people "selling" battles just to reach the required amount of wins to get the steel. 

Did any of you at WeeGreedy thought about that? Or you just don't care?

Another sloppy idea and implementation ruining more the game.

Unless Im mistaken, you wont be able to rank out without getting all the win rewards.
The article shows how many stars are required.
Bronze requires 14 wins
Silver needs 20 Wins
Gold needs 30 wins
So, assuming you win every game you will get all the rewards before you rank out
As the rewards always required 1-2 wins LESS than you need to rank out

I would remove rewards entirely. Ppl should play ranked for fun, not rewards. Current clan brawls have little reward, still waiting queue is fast and it's fun

Ranking through gold just to reach the 15 wins/week is not impossible, considering there is no chance to get demoted to silver/bronze. Just grind like a fool through bronze and silver and this is all free resources. FDR you'll be mine very very soon!

Under the test season, you got roughly same amount of coal + steel as you got steel under the old seasons (some steel was converted to a coal reward)

Now WG adds RNG so you can end up without the coal - which means less rewards. 

 

Unless the chance of getting coal in the container is >40-50% this is a net nerf of rewards -  which will NOT be appreciated.

Knowing WG containers, i'd be very surprised if the coal chance is above 10%. Very much NOT appreciated.

Sorry, if coal was the main reward for you in Ranked battles. Now you can only get it in those containers, as you mentioned.

I can't tell you exact drop rate chances in those containers, of course. But atleast there are some interesting rewards, like Elite Commander XP.

Also calculated, you can earn more doubloons during one sprint, if you are in Silver of Golden league.

But still, imo, coal is not the main reward, as it can be earned in "more resources" containers and elsewhere.

And if you don't need steel, but want to have coal, than there is still the option to convert steel to coal, but I wouldn't recommend this, honestly.

how is that "Interesting"?

Does it do something special, like a song and dance routine?
