[BUG] You are the champion!

[EdwardDLuffy]

If you win an Arenas match and then move to a BR match, there's a strong chance you will be named as the champion pre-match, no matter your previous BR performance.

Has happened to me several times. Last time this happened I checked and in my last BR I had finished 5th.

@EdwardDLuffy Yes been happening since S9 to me. A new bug that I’ve experienced yesterday was when you won in BR, “You are the Champion” won’t appear at the end of the match.

@EdwardDLuffy Confirming this, happened to me a couple of times when switching from Arenas to BR. Not only this, but it seems that the BR matchmaking is also taking into account the performance in the Arenas. I have some horrible BR stats this season, yet the sky is full of diamonds, preds and masters at least a few matches after switching to BR after a good run in the Arenas.

[EdwardDLuffy]

@DoYaSeeMe Yeah I've noticed this too. I won six Arena matches in a row (ranked) and switched to BR when the map changed to Oasis (boring map - every game is the same). I was in a squad with two Preds.

My BR stats have taken a downturn this season too, mainly (I think) down to Respawn putting my favourite early game gun, mid-to-end game gun and secondary (and downgrading it to a marksman) in the care packages.

@EdwardDLuffy you mean the Triple Take?  Ya, I used to love that one.

I won't touch the care package one.  The scope they have on it is total trash.  No idea what they were thinking with that.

@RockDokRock Yep. I was awesome with the TT with a sniper scope.

I'm not too bad with a Longbow and a 3x (hate the 2x-4x) but not as good.

[MadameRose66]

@RockDokRock Agreed, since TT is in the care package I also don't use it anymore even tho I loved it before it was a CP .-. Until now I only use Alternator because this gun is my got to go weapon at the start (before season 10) and spitfire bc it's still OP lol

Speaking of bugs, yesterday I had an Arenas game where we had no opponents. When the 'Enemy Squad' screen came up, it was empty, then there were no enemies on the buy screen.

The game started as normal and we ran straight across to the enemy's area, which was empty. After about another five seconds we were declared Champions.

Ash said she was amazed at how good we were.

I realize few Arena when I missed team mate, enemy missed team mate too, 2 v 2.

@EdwardDLuffyDéjà Vu, 🤣 I had this EXACT thing happen… it kinda makes ASH look like a DUMBA**, like, “Impressive, Victory.”  “Uhh yeah its a Flawless victory, there were no Opponents…” 🤣
