Arena mode scoring

Post by neodymium_ »

I have been playing Arena mode for King of Tokyo and I noticed that when you are a "Winner" at the platinum level, a win only awards you two progression tokens. I believe last season; a win at the platinum level would award you four tokens.

Is this a revised game setting or is it a glitch?

Here is a recent game where this happened to me:

Re: Platinum league in Arena mode is too challenging

Post by Ehrine »

The points awarded are based on all opponents. The below is snipped from the FAQ

You gain 3 Arena points when beating an opponent from the same league, 2 points when beating an opponent from league N-1, 1 point for beating an opponent from league N-2, and so on.
BUT
In a 3+ game, the number of Arena points you get is divided by the number of opponents. So beating 5 opponents from the same league brings you 3 x 5 / 5 = 3 points

I'm not sure how many active leagues there are in King of Tokyo atm so can't do the full maths, but hopefully that helps explain
