Level 100+ smurf in lower levels
Why are there so many level 100s in floor 7? I never seen anyone above level 100 before, did they change anything?

Level 100 is not that much.

The previous restrictions that kept you from falling 2 floors below your highest achieved floor were removed.

Good. 60-70% of people were crammed up in 10-cel didn't make much sense anyway.

Cuz there is no cap to deranking, people are now intentionally smurfing

I wouldn't call a level ~100 in floor 7 intentionally smurfing; being able to fall further means floors would spread out in skill more (because you wouldn't get those people stuck at floor 8 or 10 but not performing at that level currently to help those a bit better to stay in higher floors). If some of the people who fell further than they're used to are using a character that isn't their main and then they choose to go back to their main (maybe specifically because of the fall), that main could quite reasonably be around level 100.

Level 100 is trash indeed but so is level 50-60

Rank tower increase lv very fast, it is easy to reach 100, and celestial even much more faster

Unless he is the park only player that give very little exp that at about 10k win still about lv150

Yeah, probably its the dev wanting people to spread ppl out more on the floors, I guess i will be deranking pretty soon

I just suck tbh, my rank varies from 7 to 10 ( to at times celestial contender, though thats definitely more luck than skill )

My current main is 90 something and I'm pretty bad overall but I can be throwing the game and still manage to win sometimes if I'm lucky. Based on what kills me I should try harder to land an Overdrive in a combo but Bridget's kind of suck unless it's the last hit needed. My main problem seems to be that people can do way too much damage to me with as little as a few hits and I can't manage to do nearly enough even if I land what should have been a good enough combo a few times. Using the wrong move at the wrong time all the time doesn't help. Beyond that it's somewhere between a little too much startup, way too much recovery, hurtbox way too big and the hitbox way too small. Hard to get in and hard to get people off me.

Depends on the competition at the time and how many games I play. I've dropped down to 5 in the last few month and was recently as high as 9. Usually I'm 6 to 8 but it's been a lot more difficult in the last few days. Three matches isn't enough for me to find the openings on things I haven't seen often or in a while. Jack-O's I've run into used to be easy somehow but they're doing things I've never seen before lately and I don't stand a chance.

They should really use a more granular rating system. The implications of a particular rating will still change over time but at least it will be better than it is now. Quick fix, just group a dynamic but as small as possible range of ratings onto as wide as possible set of floors if they want to still have a "tower".

Maybe update the number of floors and the range of ratings in them based on the distribution from the previous day. Maybe also add an on by default option to automatically move people to higher floors if their actual floor is empty then automatically move them back down when it is not.

A mode to just match based on rating and a sufficient connection would be better than the current region, floor, room system but I don't think they'll implement something like that soon.

I've been playing the same character since the game released and I'm not even level 100 yet.
