"First!"


I feel such a troll atm, but well, yeah. I'm first. First to reach rating of over 3k. Grinding on map where patience is more important than will to fight does still count, right?

Btw, if you aim for high, remeber you loose "high" as well. When I've reached 2998 for the first time I managed to score 8th place in the next game by an accident (dont ask, stupid enough). Lost 226 points. Just keep that in minds.

Edit: And so right after this post I've joined next game with 8 players. Most of them with R below 1500. When everyone was ready it lagged a lot and moved me to the main lobby instead of game screen... ofc my new R was 2737 -268 this time.

Unlucky dude.

I had a rating of 2593 for about an hour until I missed my turn in a game and got killed, thus losing 283 of my rating. I somehow managed to repeat that. After a few more games I finally won an 8 player map and it only gave me +47. Then I facepalmed and came off the game.

+47?! Lucky you! I'm getting 10-20 for first place in 8 player game (against "average" players 1300-1800)

Yet, after I lost those 500 points I've notived great increase in my rating income. Games that would earlier reward me with 10-20 pts, now give me up to 50 I suppose this rating somehow depends on overall performance not just current match.

Gee Joriom you can be one big-headed twat. I forgot the poles were always an arrogant race anyway.

it depends on who you play against, stronger (rating-wise) enemies mean more points when you win and smaller losses when you lose, weaker enemies mean lesser gain and bigger loses

Thanks Lopdo for the explanation on the other players rating impacting how much your rating might change after that game. A few days ago - I won an 8 player game and lost one point. I truly believed that you should at least not lose points when you win - but I was just randomly joining games and this one had a lvl 1 and everyone else was a guest. I should have just exited and not played that one.

Guest doesnt give RATING

and * Joriom * IM COMING !!!!!!!!!!!!! until got disconnected again and again

Firstly, how was that big-headed?

Secondly, no need to be racist.

Thirdly, I've always liked Polish people.

Firstly, how was that big-headed? calling everybody Average.

Secondly, no need to be racist. i'm not racist poles have always thought themselves smarter

Thirdly, I've always liked Polish people . the polish are a fine people , just not the 75% of them in game.

also Joriom is a good player just his lack of diplomacy and choice of wording makes him unbearable.

So you lost ąbout 500 rating points, and u managed to 'regain' the whole amount in what? one day? Gaining 10-20 per win?
So you're telling me u won straight 30? 40? games, no 'farming', fixed maps, cheating, allying etc.
You must be so pro.

I've been around for some time now and I recently realized, that I dont know most of players on the leaderboards. I dont think i ever played with most of them.
That can easily change when I sort the leaderbords by level - then I see only skilled n respected players, with whom i played, won and lost
I guess what im saying is that rating is a good way to cheat yourself in the leaderboard - it can be faster then leveling.

I managed to keep my rating beetween my birth year and recent year , but i dont see how could anyone reach 3000 rating with fair play in this pace.
