@MVNLA2: Your statistics match mine fairly closely. There are a lot of players in the low 800’s, my average was a bit higher, like 820, and my lowest was a lot higher, like 720, but I don’t think I ever saw someone in the 900’s (I would have run away if I had, anyway).
The ratings also are a function of how you have your banner configured. For example, if your opponent is using the Blessed set, and you have the Rage Inhibit emblem on your banner, they will have a higher ranking than if you have the Healing Inhibit emblem on your banner (because reducing rage attacks doesn’t really do any good if your opponent has enhanced healing (or maybe suppressing their healing is better than suppressing their rage attacks)).
I can’t see how the wi-fi exploit works with the most up-to-date versions of the game. ABE just barks at me if I shut off wi-fi and 4G on my Android (I just reconfirmed this, it simply doesn’t work to disconnect data, ABE just stops), and as mentioned above, there’s no way to set an i-whatever to airplane mode and have ABE retain game information. It would be nice if you could force it to give you easier opponents, but I’m not sure I would want that.
When the game reset and all of a sudden everyone was mixed back together, it was kind of boring. There’s no challenge (if you have a higher-level lineup and higher banner from a higher league) squashing Wood League players (and it was hard to get any separation in the standings because everyone basically just ran up their scores until they ran out of playing time). What I want is a competitive, and fair, game, where you have to have more skill than luck to complete the objectives. The way it is now, where you’re constantly fighting Diamond League players in the Silver League, just plain sucks. It’s not fun because outcomes depend more on luck than anything else (e.g., Did you get to move first? Was his first strike with Skulkers a critical hit that destroyed a bird with one shot?).
What would be great is if there were a few better opponents, mostly evenly matched opponents, and a few weaker opponents. But this constantly fighting people who are well above you is as bad as picking on Wood League people. It was a really bad idea to reclassify everyone when they started the new league.
I’m through grumbling about the stupid game for today.
