One mistake is assuming that each loss took the same time as a victory, there are plenty of variables during the course of a battle.
Let’s redo your math:
3500 Battles played for each win wins divided by 7 days = 500 battles on each day.
Assuming he played 12h on each day we have 565/12 = 41.66 Battles per hour.
Mix and match increasing the number of hours played (instead of simply using 12 as in my example) and you’ll see that it’s doable, even if you take into account the losses taking some time like one minute until he realizes the battle will take too long or is already lost. Also we don’t know if all battles were three trophies, and even some of those are quick sometimes.
Several weeks ago I took a stab at the top ten. I finished in 3rd place and only did approximately half of what @ZooKeeper did. But, knowing Zoo, I have no doubt that his score is legitimate and the accolades honestly earned. Good job, Zoo!
What’s more impressive in that screenshot is the defence records. 3rd place has 557 defence wins against 357 defence losses. I play on X1 and it is not often you see positive defence records (i.e. more wins than losses), let alone nearly 2 to 1 defence wins. All top 3 have positive defence records, then just look how it changes dramatically with 4th place (41 defence wins against 260 losses!).
I can only assume that low level players see the top players in pvp and try to challenge them as it would be a great victory to beat the best, but ultimately end up failing badly, thus giving top players many extra defence wins. However, by this logic this would affect console and pc, but I don’t recall ever seeing a record on X1 as good as 557 defence wins against only 357 losses.
What do you mean that 10,000 gold and a few gems aren’t worth 70 hours of your time (sarcasm). Oh yeah I see the problem here, you can actually earn the same amount of gold in about 6 or 7 pvp matches lol. I normally achieve between around top 500-100 each week, and quite honestly the rewards are a disgrace.
Remember that the pvp rankings numbers are in the wrong places,so the defense wins are after the attack numbers and pvp losses are before the defense losses. If you click on the player tho it shows it right.
I just look at it vertical now as it shows, attack wins over losses and defense wins over losses.
I’m looking at the guy in 3rd place, stats show pvp wins 1542, pvp losses 131, defence wins 557, defence losses 357. I am reading this wrong, and if so what are the correct stats?
I’m level 1118, all kingdoms level 10 and plus 5 star, and even if I use Psion/Fam team or Troll/Nyx/Mab etc I’m not getting defence stats anywhere near defence stats shown above. I’m aware meta defence teams seem to vary depending on platform, so I guess PC must have some proper tough meta defence teams that differ from console.
