Hello Urban Rivals players,

During the last week we discussed about how to modify the ELO ban list.

But many players pointed out that more radical changes need to be done.



This is why we want to do a brief survey with you, proposing 3 ways to modify ELO mode in the future. Based on your choice, we will work in that direction only, so your advice is crucial here.



Your task is easy: to select option A, B or C.

Of course, you are welcome to write your opinions in the comments.



Here is a small summary of the 3 propositions:



A) ELO with ‘Points’

Every card will have a point value between 1 and 25. The stronger the card is, the more points it will have.

The points will change every week thanks to an algorithm. It will take many factors into account: how much the card is played, how many times a match is won thanks to that card, and so on.

A deck will have a restriction of maximum 25 stars and maximum 100 points. No doubles, no semi-evolved cards.

This mode will permit every card to be played in competitive matches. You can decide to pick a rather bad card to be able to play stronger cards. Playing a low-point card like Ricardo, for example, could make space to play a high-point card, like Vickie Cr.

The choice of how to balance your deck will be entirely yours, with no cards banned at all.

Everything is free… at a price!

The algorithm will change the value of the top and less used cards every week, so the format will be in a state of constant evolution. Most importantly, it will be the players who will decide these changes, just by playing in this mode!



B) ELO with ‘Banned and Limited cards’

The mode will have a list (to be determined) of banned cards. This list will feature only few characters, the most powerful of the game: Jackie Cr, Graksmxxt, excetera.

In addition to this little list, a new bigger one will be added: a limited list.

Only 1 card among the cards of this second list will be able to be played in your deck. For example, if you include the first card from this list in your deck, you will not be able to add any of the other limited cards.

The players votes will remain, but the cards chosen by you won’t go in the ‘banned cards list’, but in the ‘limited cards list’ for that week.



C) ELO with ‘Banned cards only’ (what we have now)

We will keep a ban list only, more or less similar to the one we have now. Adjustments to it will be done every 3/4 months.

We may try small changes to the deck format (for example, to limit to one the number of lv 5 cards in your deck, or to modify the number of stars in the deck), but nothing too ‘drastic’ like the other two propositions.



Survey end:



Good UR!
