I think a lot of people also want this, and it's been brought up in the space time bug thread.

On one hand a set team would be nice to get some kind of stability, but on the other hand I've gone up a few reward brackets by spamming refresh and catching people doing SA, ninetails, ninja exams etc, sniping their spot and hoping not to be attacked before rewards distribution. I'd like to be able to set a team, I just figured not to expect any changes anytime soon (it'll happen when/if it happens) and am trying to work within the existing system.

I get why it might be nice to some people, but the fact is that it makes the event a whole lot less enjoyable. While in a lot of eyes it already is unfair cause of the favorability to P2W players and certain setups, it is also unfair that you would lose while doing events cause people catch you changing main team (which is necessary to follow the events). The balance is not so much a matter of the event system, so i'll park that matter, this thread isnt about that part.

I can name one example to back up my thread. Today I dropped 100 ranks in one battle cause someone ranked very low attacked me during 9Tails. I am not one to complain easily, but I can't see myself enjoying the function if these kind of things are prone to keep happening cause the system isn't foolproof.

I almost forgot to say; thanks for your contribution ;) This post was last edited by LightningLion at 2017-4-15 06:07

I totally agree, I would like to be able to set a team for this mode, so that I can actually switch teams for more than a few mins without plummeting in rank, and it would overall make it a lot more enjoyable (no more having to switch to the right team before logging out, trying to battle close to ninetails times, etc). I'm just pointing out that the current system is actually BETTER for free to play/low power players, who might catch a much stronger player off guard and be able to jump in rank (if temporarily). If everyone had set teams, the rankings would be more "fair" and closer to how they should be. "Fair" rankings favor people with stronger auto battle teams with higher power....which tend to be the p2w players.

Sure this is right?
I inspected player above me, and his current active team was not the same as I was fighting in Space Time.
About fighting against 9tail teams, it would make sense that players get into their 9tails team and end up doing a Space time battle with the wrong active team while waiting for the world boss event to start.

The way I thought this was working is that once you do a fight, your team lineup gets stored - the same way as Ranked battle works, where you actually need to fight something to update your power.

Very true, and its not that I don't want the F2P players to enjoy this event, but it shouldnt go at the cost of the system breaking. Even the F2P players would get messed up by way lower F2P players in the end, by getting that same treatment. :lol

The way I see it, it doesnt really help anyone in the end, it will make it much more of a drag for anyone cause the system allows "Cheating" in a way. You either have to plan your entire game around the Space Time event or accept that people will abuse the fact that you have to change your team for other events, as you also pointed out.

It might update at some set interval (on the hour? every 30 mins?), but I'm pretty sure its not just when you fight with a team, since I've seen some solo main teams too. Of course maybe they just had the wrong team and missclicked like you said.

Would be great if we got some official word on this.

"You either have to plan your entire game around the Space Time event"
....yeah that's the part that I'm really not liking :(

I would love confirmation too, from what i'm seeing it is just your current team with a small delay. I can't confirm. I don't think there has been any explanation yet about the details on how the team building works in the current situation.

I do know that as long as there is an issue with the team function, the event will be a big hassle for a lot of players that already find the game taking a lot of their time.

I got knocked down nearly 200 ranks in the time it took me to run 10x brothers TI....
