Level freezing is almost ENTIRELY for sage, and to a minor extent, arena.

Sage bracket is determined by level first, power second. Most levels do not contain enough equal level players for multiple brackets, so it end up being based on level only, with no regard to power. Keeping your level low makes it a lot easier to be the top power in your field.


Arena has a limit of +-10 levels compared to yourself. If you stay at level 84 or below, you can avoid a good number of top players for climbing to 6 paths.


Matsuri is strictly based on your max power displayed in power rankings. Your level, or power from current equipped team does not matter whatsoever. You'll eventually get an advantage in matsuri due to having higher init than anyone you meet without the 60s que timer, but that point take many months to arrive at.


ps: minor pve side effect of level freezing: you can destroy strong approaching, as well as sealed/anbush ninjas in group snake at far lower power by level freezing; as their strength increase exponentially with levels.

  • I'm pretty sure masuri is based on level first, power second. Because I have a level freezing alt, and most matches below 60 seconds are against player of similar level. Granted, i don't play it that often, so it's not a particularly large sample size. But it have almost never lost except when going over 60 seconds.

    Being a char in S12 where the server cluster lacks low level players but quite a few similar power players 20-30 level shigher, that's hardly likely to be a coincident.

I'm fully active on my level freezer char in UK. Typical matsuri involves a lvl 90 - 92 player for the first match, followed by 4 lvl 95s. I almost never meet players below 90. Back when I had 30k less pow on the acc, I mostly met players in the 80s.

@IPackaPunch How long ago was that? The level restriction was put in place after 3.0 came out.
