Battle Pass is not too hard
I frequently see complaints that because of things like Arenas challenges, etc., the battle pass progression in unfair. Well, I started playing on a smurf account about a week ago to queue in my bes...

@pandareno1999 Well, your display of bravado where you come here saying players are "whining" (which is insulting) about the the mix of modes in the challenges, is something I don't particularly like, and I feel I have to stand up for those players who protest against the way challenges are laid out, as I have been in the position, myself, of needing to use challenges to finish the BP, and wasn't able to. So I know from my own experience that the challenges are flawed.
The daily, LTM and especially the weekly challenges are a jumble, poorly organised and don't really do what they set out to do.
So if there are people who complain about the challenges, I'm here to agree with those people and put their point of view across. Plus, I have also made a suggestion about how the challenges could be integrated with the BP in a revamp that I think would make a lot of people much happier.
But apart from all that, yeah, I just don't like a section of the playerbase of a game that has a lot of obvious fundamental flaws being labelled 'whiners'.
The challenges are a mess, the way they are set-out is lazy and ugly, and they aren't fit for purpose. But it's another area of the game that is sadly neglected and part of the reason for that is because when players complain they are labelled 'whiners'.

I find myself a bit short on time, but I wanted to address your post in some fashion in a timely manner. I have a few apologies/concessions to make here. First, primarily, until your latest post, I didn't realize you were taking the position of being the subject of my post. I thought we were just kind of debating. This was incredibly dense of me, and I apologize profusely for this.
Second, I should not have used a word like that, full stop. It was poor judgement and I can't blame you for getting upset with me, considering point one above.
Finally, it was bad judgement for me to make this post towards the end of the season, when many people are working very hard to try to complete their battle pass. I should have anticipated that someone might take it personally and not made the post to begin with. I guess one could accuse me of being tone deaf with making this post at this point of the season and I can't argue that they are wrong. I don't think the BP is made to be easy to finish in a short amount of time. The challenges are intended to be completed by means of regular play over the course of a whole season. But I am sympathetic to those like yourself who, for whatever reason, find themselves in the position of needing to grind really hard to complete it in a shorter time.
My whole take here is simply that we frequently get a lot of posts near the beginning of a season along the lines of "why are there Arenas challenges? Arenas is being forced down my throat!" This is what i take issue with. As I've said, I've had no trouble completing any BP since S10 without touching arenas (I did not complete S9 BP as I played very little). I think that if we looked at the details of how the stars are distributed, with the exception of S9, the devs have distributed the stars in such a way that it is no more difficult to complete the BP by playing only battle royale than it was before Arenas was introduced.
This post became long, I guess my time wasn't as short as I thought. I'm very sorry to have caused this antagonism and I hope that you will accept my apologies and we can move on. Take care, fellow legend!
