Just looking for some opinions . Its like i qualify and then, just get my eight wins and give the rest away , I do not know, just feels a bit crap to me this year .Qualifying to me is a little bit more exciting , but when that is done it just feels not very exciting to get the eight wins . Maybe just me , maybe not feeling that engaged with the game in general is my issue this year . Anyone else ?

Great for Rewards totw pack. Etc. And time it takes is more chilled now Like I can enjoy my weekend more.
Bad as I kinda miss the grind and ranking system.
Bad as qualifying is very hard and friends miss out.
yes i think i liked the ranking system, but very strange i also liked the rewards on the following Thursday , the build up to what fodder i would get
I like getting the rewards straight away. I basically bash out my games on the Friday.
However I do feel like there’s not much to play for. My team will get better but I’m still having an easy WL regardless. I guess I could go for 56 but I mostly can’t be arsed.
Rewarded for losing, its not life or death
Some would say there's no competition, not too fussed about that as I've been an average Joe since I started playing and I just want those shiny cards and have fun in game.
Used to be 40 games in 2 days
Last two week I hit rank 1 playing all my games Sunday night in 6-7 hours with a few breaks in between. People also quit way easier.
30 games was way more of a chore plus people quit less because of the 400 rival points
On the whole though even though I play quite a bit I don’t feel as hooked this year, something about it is off, feel like it could be the content which tbh has been horrendous or my pack luck which has been just as bad, playing WL every weekend and not getting anything of value 3 months into the game just puts me off
Yes, it’s a more casual experience and less games to play for decent rewards, but I think we’re less hooked on the game as a result and there’s less enjoyment.
The whole 1 point for a loss thing needs to go...way too much gifting wins, quitting games and encouraging toxicity
Its just the qualifiers, I dont like feeling rushed or having to be fully focused, running into people who timewaste or attempt to annoy you, just find it 'toxic' and prefer to avoid it.
It’s easier and faster
Managed to get every week 16 wins easily
It’s also much, much quicker with people quitting, gifting wins etc. I’ve even quit games when the connection has been bad as I know that frustrates the hell out of me, so it’s just score OG and move on.
It's great now sweating the qualifiers our at my own time and then WL feels much less pressurised and easy to hit 8 and give away the rest... I know those who enjoyed the sweat of the old one will miss it but I certainly don't 🤣
I do feel bad however for those who are struggling to compete... think there should be a different competition for those... a bit like the Europa league... lower level comp that you enter with 3 wins or something.
A huge plus is you can decide if you want to play WL by looking at the current TOTW. Last year you went into WL without knowing the potential reds you will get. If there is a totw I am not interested in I won’t even play WL
I get the qualification playoff process annoys some, but ultimately if you're good enough you'll qualify, if you aren't you won't. As simple as that...
