What do we think will be the highest score that _doesn't_ get into silver next weekend?

My stone league is 800 trophies... I have 150.

Yes, when will the bronze league start?!

It started immediately after the stone league completed, I think.

I was number 3 in my stone league so I moved on, but don’t see that it has started for me

Never mind! All in had to do was play πŸ˜…

No one has gotten to Bronze yet

Agree to disagree.

Looks like for my bronze division a person will need at least 800 trophies.

Going off of what people earned last week gave a very good prediction for stone, so I assume it will for bronze too. There are still plenty of people just playing without knowing that leagues exist, so they'll stick to their habits.

I do have an overachiever... last two weeks one guy in my division got over 4000 trophies.

Hopefully it doesn't require more than 1k. The leagues get substantially tougher each week. Silver will be the first league with major competition imo.Β Β

Over the week I saw around 10 stone league divisions. Yours needing over 800 was the hardest I've seen.

Hmm, the leaderboard people are still playing a mix of blitz, bullet, and rapid.

On one hand this is strange since bullet arena is clearly the most efficient non-simul method of getting trophies. I see @dragonb70 has been experimenting with rapid simuls, but I've been told that staff has called this technically not ok... maybe they'll make that part of the rules in later weeks.

Anyway, on the other hand, I might make sense. At least for me, since I play with a mouse, I couldn't do 10 hours of bullet arena.... my hand would wear out. But I could relax by playing some blitz or rapid in between. In that case it makes sense to play a lot of different time controls.

I only play rapid

Has anybody noticed the part where it says Arena = Bonus trophies? I play in blitz arenas and I get like 11 points per win. Seems to increase with my arena points as well.

1st week I won my league with 1280pts and 2nd place was just 715

This week I've needed a whopping 2k pts to make sure of 1st place.

the 715 that was needed for 2nd place in the 1st week would only make 14th place in my stone lg this week.

how do you have time to play so muchΒ

Eh, leagues are already starting to get a bit annoying. I should only need 2-3 hundred more points to get promoted this week, which isn't a big increase from last week... so after silver, maybe getting to crystal won't be too terrible but... not sure I'll be motivated next week.

At how many points would you be unwilling to try for a promotion?

Let's say you knew at the beginning you'd need 1000, would you do it?

2000? 3000? What's your cutoff?

My cutoff is around 750tongue.png.

Ever since I got trapped in Stone as I didn't make it to Bronze this week, I've been going slowly. I'm probably going to wait a couple of weeks after all these league grinders are out of the mix and people of around my league level space are in my league πŸ˜€

It will be interesting to see how competitive leagues are in a few weeks.
