People, why are you doing this? You get the crystals ok but you are whales anyway. I mean I play the game for the competition. Why are you playing it? To stay in top 50 overnight, to play vs castrated teams so you can climb? Don't fight your shard chat never? This is pathetic. You ain't gaining shit and you loose respect from peeps.

Nobody really cares about your peeps respect.Also, most shard chats aren't castrating their teams. Those of us at the top can beat each other anyway, and most of us have actual lives outside of this game. You might call it 'competition' to spend the last 15 minutes of payout glued to your phone frantically refreshing so you can lock in at precisely the right second to ensure you get firet. If that's what you want then your shard chat is more than happy to oblige you. Most of us get our enjoyment from the game in other ways. This is all with the caveat that some shard chats seem like horrendous cliques populated by losers on a power trip.

Oh good. We haven't had a thread complaining about shard chats in...hours. Thank the good Lord someone started one. :D

Do you really gain respect for being good at a video game? You must hang out in a very different circle of friends than I do. I play for fun, not respect, and if shard chats make the game more fun, then use them. If not, don’t.

Id have to disagree. If it weren't for the great conversations, theory crafting and video sharing I probably wouldn't be playing the game any longer. Fact is the arena layout isn't the greatest and shard chats just make life and arena way less stressful.

What's up with this whining? Did you get pissed off because you can't compete with guys at top of your shard or have someone tell you how to play this game? If you want competition, play guys on your own level. Don't go telling others how to play this game. You play how you want, let them play how they do. You sound hilarious as if this game is all you have and you want people to play down to you.

Join the shard chat, makes life a lot easier is a lot of fun in the end. If you don’t maximise your rewards everyone in your shard chat will develope at a much faster rate than you and you’ll be left behind

Everyone at the top can beat each other anyway as defense is handicapped and RNG also plays a major role. The payout system is a frustrating system, and shard chats just make it manageable. I don't like having to lock myself out a few minutes before payout or if I try to snipe someone I need to get it just right so they don't have time to beat me back or they haven't locked themselves out yet. Most other people would probably agree with me, and that is why we have shard chats.
