Question about ranking.



How can he be at #102 with just 26k power? (Compared to me, #105 with 89k power)
How did he climb up there?

I also notice that my much stronger ally is at #500+.
Shouldnt he be above my rank?



How does the game ranking system work?

Thanks.

    In this game, the "rooms" you're referring to are called shards.

    There are lots of those. We call them shards. Unless you've added your ally from your shard, they'll be in another shard. Your shard consists of people that unlocked arena around the same time as you.


    So, is every1 trapped in his own shard/room?

    If that is the case...the p2p will always be at the top and the f2p will be at the bottom.

    In the beginning, yes. Over time it changes to active players at the top, even F2P ones, and inactives lower down.

    Fleet shards (or "rooms") are smaller, I want to say 1000 players with more opportunity for light spenders / F2P to hit the top ranks sooner if they do their research.
  • Thanks all, it makes sense now.

    BTW, last night b4 bed, i still found the guy.
    He changed his 0-0-0 to emperor palpatine (looks like freshly unlocked palpatine).
    He managed to climb again to rank-above-100.

    Super frustrating to see a cheater doing their thing with seemingly no repercussions - I get it.

    Report the guy and be done with it - but please don't make a post every time you see him. The forums would be flooded with cheater posts if everyone did that. We already get at least two a week.
  • I have 2 theories on this

    1. He rises in the arena rank with a strong team and then switches to a weaker team after climbing (likely not happening)

    2. He's a cheater and you should report him both ingame and to CG_LucifersDaddy here on the forums.

    I suspect theory number 2 is why he can climb so high with such a weak squad

    I wish you could view their inventory just like in GAC. things may change then.


    Well indirectly you could. Either by SWGOH.GG or if they're not on .GG. Finding the guild on .GG then doing a guild search in........guild search. Then looking at his profile there.
  • In squad arena you can also send an ally invite after battling them and then go into your ally management, view pending requests and use the link to view their roster in-game.
  • Agree with all of the above. Generally you get to know all the names in your arena shard, newer ones will pop up with new GLs. The thing about winning 4 battles, they need to use that weak squad once as you can only set it by a battle.

    Seems quite dodgy if you see multiple promotions daily.
