Yes noob fought a 90 vp and got over 300.

If I fight a 90. I get 180.

He also said he fought a 38 and got 60 to 70

I fight a 38 and get 90 to 100.

So yes we’re both fighting same battle. He’s getting lower and higher. Very strange.

For me to get a 50VP+ battle, I need to have an option to fight someone with a level above 2520  
Not sure how often you see them,but they are pretty rare for me.  
Similarly, to get a 90VP battle, I need to find on of the very few players over 3000

IV never got over 220 myself. And IV never noticed in my mini league , since PvP began.

If I average fights, to points. Anyone getting anywhere near 300 vp .

But I may be wrong.

Picture evidence would help the Devs immensely.

I still think people are playing so fast, there looking at pre fight vp. And not noticing. It’s a lot more after quick wins.

I can’t think tbh. Iv ever seen a 3000 lvl player. Maybe 1 player above 2500.  
You must be over 2100 or something, am I right.

For some reason, sadly this is one of the online games where it is not possible to merge the platforms

So I’m higher than all these. Some by over 400 levels.

And il still get 100 to 200 vp. Depending on if I use a talisman or not.

So it’s impossible for me to get lower than 70 vp. Even if I fight players 400 levels lower.

So it’s really confusing, how players get VP so low, are they taking 100 turns to win 😂😂

If there only giving you opponents so low. That’s a bit bad.

That’s why your getting so low. VP.

Tbh. They should just make the points.

30,70,100. Double if you use a talisman.

Then your points would be based on , how much you play. And what choice of fight you pick.

Instead of your hero level.

It would stop all complaints over points.

Hero or player level is stupid.  
Team level matters probably more.  
But I’m thinking PvP ladder position should determine score

Wanna move up the PvP board? Beat someone better.  
And let everyone start the week with a % of last week for some 💪

_(Even though I won’t be doing this)_

So obviously I take middle

Here is an article that explains everything in detail and clearly: [PvP Leaderboards & Scoring : Infinity Plus 2](https://infinityplus2.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/150000208175-pvp-leaderboards-scoring)

Before the battle (when choosing opponents), you see the base number of VP for victory, to which bonus VP are added for actions (Match X-gems, gain X extra turns, win in X turns, X troops alive at the end, 1-shot-kill). The base number is a maximum of 90 VP, and the bonus is a maximum of 35. On the victory screen, you see the total: base points + bonus points (taking into account the multipliers, which will be discussed further). Thus, for a “normal” battle, you can get a maximum of 125 points. If there is a region with bloody rage, you will receive double the amount (90+35) x 2. If you use the Victory Talisman, it will be tripled (90+35) x 3. That is, a region with bloody rage, as well as the victory talisman, doubles the amount (base points + bonus points)

Thus, the maximum you can get for a battle is 125x3 = 375 points  
Please note that this is not ((90+35) x2) x2

Well, here’s another example. In the picture, you see an enemy with 60 base VP. For the battle, you were able to collect an additional 25 bonus points:  
for a normal battle = 60+25 = 85 points

if it is a region with bloody rage without a talisman, it will be:  
(60+25) x2 or (60+25) + (60+25)

If it is with talismans without bloody rage, then the same:  
(60+25) x 2

If it is bloody rage and a talisman, then:  
(60+25) x 3 or (60+25) + (60+25) + (60 +25)

When you say obviously you take the middle. Is that because your choosing the lowest level.

As I play a different way, I choose the left every time, I don’t even look at the opponents level. As it doesn’t matter.

No matter the level. We go 1st. And should win 99%. Of the time. Plus speed wise, why bother looking for the low level.

Just continuesly choose the left, for speed and quick wins.

The lowest team score is the easiest win. Level has little to do with it.

Tbh, all 3 levels. Are 2 shot wins. With Stella or Chrys.

There all the same difficulty at our high level.

So the only choice you should need to make us, whether you want. 1,2 or 3 trophies.

The opponents team score doesn’t matter, you should win all 3, in the same number of moves.
