my quick story….

two losses on rev, +1 loss on tempest = 3 losses in a row…

then i switched back to ranger (after remembering the bunker meta is gone) and won a game. only gained 1 pip (no bonus pip for comeback after 3 consecutive losses)

so here’s how my day’s been so far…

3 losses
1 win (1 pip)
2 losses
1 win (1 pip)
3 losses
1 win (1 pip)
1 loss

yes, i’m in amber due to being my first day back home after season 2 started.

the feb 23 patch notes say i’m supposed to get a bonus pip for 1st win after 3 consecutive losses, but as you can see, i was not granted the bonus pip… twice.

i’m not posting screenshots because ANET can look up my record easily enough to verify this info.

PS /bug report incoming through in-game too

I feel like the comback system should be reworked to something else. It is somewhat susceptible to abuse.
At the beginning of each tier, or the very beginning of ruby/diamond. The best strategy to progress (besides just being pro and winning non stop) is to lose 3 matches first and THEN attemp your wins, the reason being, the first win will give you 2 pips so the next game, you can afford a lose because you got a free pip, if you force the lose streak it gives you a better start at progressing to the next tier because your win/lose ratio doesnt need to be as good
