I just finished a game in Tzolkin and it ended by a draw. My opponent was 1st player ^^ he is in ELITE whereas I'm in silver, should'nt I win some arena points ?

DA

You did, but not ranks, just arena points, which aren‘t visible till you make it to Elite too.
He lost 14 arena points and 7 ELO, so I‘d assume you‘d have gained something pretty similar.

(And for the record, I dont find this good, especially in games which end in a draw if neither of the players makes a mistake (dunno if that‘s the case for Tzolkin too))

In Tzolkin, draws are pretty rare (I think this was my first actually) because the final scoring is made with remaining ressources, where the cheapest one worth 0,25 points (not sure it's implemented though, I should check) and scores often go higher than 100.

The main problems (according to me ) is there is a huge advantage to be the 1st player, never compensated, that's why I was (a little) disappointed by the draw after having started 2nd player.
