Solo Good Karma Games are garbage – Vainglory Review

They have a thing called Karma in this game. It's intention is to punish trolls, afk players, etc. Play the game, follow the rules, and don't troll. You'll still get placed into their "good" karma tier eventually (regardless if you follow the rules), which is a step lower from their "great" Karma level. Don't be fooled by the "good," label. There are only two ranks, and "good" isn't good at all. Your games will become obnoxiously difficult, your teammates become morons, and trolls, and it will take you significantly longer to get back to great karma. Spend money on the game? It doesn't matter. Are you loyal, and do you follow the rules? It doesn't matter. UPDATE: The condescending response they gave to username Zay is your disappointing evidence of how they view their players - definitely not the type of people that deserve your money. UPDATE: I don't think you get it. The current system doesn't just punish trolls, it also punishes good, honest, players. UPDATE: only takes one bitter idiot to ruin your karma UPDATE: It's meant to be mostly good karma? That's worse! Those games are absolute trash! Let me also clarify what I meant by one idiot, since you didn't understand. I know it takes an accumulation of karma drops. It takes one bitter person to tip you back down, in addition to the others. Whatever the case is, it's not solving your troll problem, and if "good" karma games are what you consider normal games, then obviously the matchmaker needs a lot of work.
