This might be the best time for Team Ike to burn flags, yeah. We don't want Camilla to overshoot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kruggov Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 It seems Ike overdid it after all. I guess right now it's gonna be multiplier tug-o-war? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawk King Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 And Ike scored in the perfect sweet spot. Camilla will take a slight lead and Ike can cruise control to victory. Yeah, Team Ike can freely spend all of their flags now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Camilla could garner enough votes to give the multiplier back to Ike. I think that's it for us unless Camilla vastly overperforms.

Ike doesn't have that much firepower left in him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoboKD001 Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 there should be two outcomes. the likely one is that it goes according to the prediction sheets so all ike needs to do is keep playing and get the lead back. the other outcome is camilla unexpected underperform, possibly giving her a last minute multiplier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Dragon Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Team Camilla's best chance right now is to dump as many flags into this multiplier as possible to increase her lead as much as possible. There's virtually no way for Team Camilla to overshoot, so pushing the score as deep into Camilla territory is their best bet. After this hour, it's just dependent on how much Team Ike can rally in the remaining hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing as she just did 6.4 Billion, there is no way her score will be under 5 Billion for this one. This is in the bag for Ike. The prediction shows a narrow victory for Ike but that is only because it has Camilla's hourly gains extremely inflated at 400 million per hour. Seeing as she has only scored 400 million 1 time so far, I think it is safe to assume she will not be able to maintain that pace. For Team ike, you can all spend whatever flags you have left. If you are paranoid, save 400 for the final hour. Y'all should be good though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anacybele Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 I'm gonna save 400 for the final couple hours, yeah. And I say final couple because I don't know if I'll wind up with stupidly poor matchups in the final one. xP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charmeleonbrah Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 The multiplier is fine by me, and is going to stay. It allows units that don't have a chance to remain competitive. Did you see the results of the first gauntlet, pre-multiplier? It was a massacre. It might need some tweaking, so that people (nerds) don't sit on their feathers until the late multipliers, but it's fine. I've seen a lot of Brave Units on my teams. There are usually at least two on the battlefield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkLordIvy Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 I've got 2600 flags remaining at this point. I'm going to start spending 20 per hour in an effort to conserve enough to dump 400 every hour at like the five hour remaining mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm fine with the multiplier, it just needs a bit more tweaking to find that nice middle ground between fewer massacres as you mentioned and fewer screwages by multiplier.

You're aware that would give you less points then dumping them 200 a time right? You could also save 5x400=2000 flags, and dump 600 now (in 3 sets of 200).

Lau Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Multiplier shenanigans are great because it actually makes gauntlets unpredictable, which is always a good thing. But I do agree that something needs to be done to change it a little. Camilla's doing fine, though I'm out of flags. I think I can get around 400 more to blow just before I go to bed.

I'll probably do a variant of what you suggested then. 3 minutes ago, Charmeleonbrah said: Did you sit on your feathers from previous rounds? I don't believe you can get 2600 flags from the quests... I only used 420 flags before this last round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, did you miss most of the previous round multipliers or just not want to spend them? Seems like not much to gain out of saving so many for the last round unless it's a Gaius situation.

Anacybele Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 (edited) Oh, I also think this should no longer be called a voting gauntlet. It was never even really one before the multiplier came because you never actually voted. You battled against the other team in a tourney style competition. That's part of what made the curbstomps uninteresting. You know you're fighting a losing battle the whole time if you're on the losing side.

Math is not my strong suit especially before noon. I'll probably do a variant of what you suggested then. The most efficient way to spend the 4530 flags is to do 22 rounds of 200 + one of 100 + one of 20 + one of 10. All other battles can then obviously be the 1 flag for free.
