You are the one who misunderstood from the start. Everyone knows that the top 128 who get to play in the tournament is from the Point Ranking not last minute ranking, that's why ranking point even exists.

Of course all that matters is the score point, as it measures your ranking over the entire course of the "season" as opposed to just at the final moment. If you maintained a good rank throughout the season, you will have a good score and qualify.

it does say right here in the guide that you need to get points to rank in the top128, its not very explicit that points are what matter, but its there, and its understandable.

It's a season of 2 weeks.

Your mentality of those 1-2 difficult battle at the end should get you in is like saying Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal, etc playing for a year to be top of the table, while you were bottom of the table the entire season, and just because you come in on the last day to beat one of the top teams, you expect that you're supposed to win the Premier League? Yeah well. Doesn't work that way.

dude in the whole event i was 150 / 120/ 80 , not last minute challange

So its pointless to say, that you need to be on the top 128 :) because the only things that matter are the SCORE POINT.
So the only rule there must be, The player that achieve high score pass. rank doesnt matter at all.
In the end the people that use coupon to get more match can get more score, so after all its another pay to win event. Its very no sense to talk about "fair system" as the support team said :)

As i said i was on a good place on the whole event and on the last 2/3 days i got the rank around 60/50th

What i want to say its simple. Gve to all players the chance to pass and have fun, not only op shop player.
If someone build a good team and can achieve an high rank, let him pass.
That is my personal point of view. thank you all for the answer :)

How do you expect to do a tournament with 2000/3000 players?
This system gives you the opportunity to build a good team and achieve a good rank to get daily points.
What do you want more?

Like a lot of other things in this game its just poorly translated hope you didnt waste a lot of coupons to get that last min rank.

Rank matters because that's the only way to get score points.

And while I got knocked out in round 1 by ptws, I did qualify in S2-S12 group of LA server as a ftp @rank 72.
Never bought a match, in fact I didn't even need to use all my matches, using different amounts depending on what happened that day, average of I think 3 a day is used.

then means you were, during the two weeks, a lot more under 128th place than over it, otherwise you would have had the points to be there.

It is only fair for space time to be ranked on a points system to measure the consistency of players. Imagine if you are that guy that you beat, you are consistently on top 128 for the duration of the event then at the last day you were knocked out. If the last day is all that matters then your effort all throughout would be in vain. Isn't that more unfair? :o

Though on our sever we may not have achieved that yet, its quite unfair at the same time for those that don't understand how the "Instance" system works. Thus to be honest if this were depending on the rank of which you had at the end of the event it would be quite better, as this encourages players to create a team that is determined to not face defeat. But then again that's my opinion and only mine, though now you "the victim" now understands the system so you can prepare ahead on how to approach the matter now. So good luck :D:@

Well put. I guess this sums everything up. :)

I would like to point out that this is not strictly true. It is POSSIBLE that the 128th place in pt ranking have a higher pt/day average than what the 128th rank can earn.
This can happen if there is a fair amount of fluidity on ranking for the specific server group. To give an simple example, think 15 players who take "turns" being the 1st to 10th place and 131 to 135th place. Those 15 players will have higher pts than people who are ALWAYS in 124th to 128th rank, and thus bump them out.
That said, realistically such extreme examples are unlikely, but some fluidity in the 90 to 130/140 rank could still cause a more "even" point distribution such that a "stable" 128th player is bumped out.

That said, if a player is truly "good" and gets to say top 110 consistently, then it's extremely unlikely that they get bumped out. So in the end, anyone who is bumped out is still bumped out due to their own inabilities.

i think you didn't understand what i said.
I replied to his assumption: "in the whole event i was 150 - 120 - 80" (understating: "so i should have been in top128").
So if he was for the whole event 150-120-80 means simply he was for more days in the 150-120 range than in the 120-80 range. Otherwise is not possible to be out of top128 by summing points we get there.

And my point is that it's even possible that he was at 119, which is within 120-80, ALL the time and still be knocked out. Somewhat unlikely, but possible.
And frankly, an equal measure of 150 and 119 will almost certainly knock anyone out, so your statement would not have been correct either way.

then we both got a big misunderstanding since we are saying the same thing :-) (could be my fault, if i wrote what i thought in a wrong way)
