No ranks. You get paired against an opponent and you two play until someone gets 10 cubes. If you win, you get some extra rewards (some coins for a new shop that was added with the mode) and a ticket to move up to the next bracket. Higher bracket means more coins for winning, but also more wins required before you can advance to the next bracket. 1 win, then 2 wins, then 3 wins, then 5 wins. If you lose, you go back to the bottom bracket and work your way back up.

It's pretty much just regular snap but 1) no ranks to lose, 2) an extra currency that you get as you win, and 3) you play the same opponent a couple games in a row, so you can start strategizing after the first game since you know what deck they're using now.

You still earn boosters and complete missions in the new mode, so if you've hit infinite already there's largely no reason to not play the new mode.

I've been playing for the last three seasons now. I was going to break my F2P status to get Ghost-Spider but the decisions made by the developers the last month or two made me decide full-out against putting any money into the game if they don't pull their heads out of their ass.

As someone who was actually excited for Overwatch 2, man is it just one disappointment after another. From new heroes being locked away behind the battle passes, to the cosmetics system being complete garbage now, to now this... damn. Just damn. I was willing to forgive the three years they spent letting OW1 rot before they completely destroyed it, but everything has just been so bad.

I feel ya on the Clara thing. I’ve picked up Welt from the beginner showcase, Bronya from standard so far, and Yanqing broke my pity while picking up Silver Wolf. I’m happy to get any new character, but right now if I were to get the 300 standard I’d likely pick Clara of the ones I’m missing.

As tempting as FuXuan is, I’m trying to hold out for Topaz and Huohuo (+ Huohuo’s LC, maybe?). I need to keep an eye on leaks for when they’re likely coming to decide if I can go for FuXuan in the meantime, though.

Honestly, don’t really care for either of them. My current plan is to save what I have (about 150 summons’ worth of stuff after picking up Yoimiya) and hopefully being able to pick up the Hydro Archon + Weapon.

So far not too many of the Fontaine characters are of interest to me based off of leaks, but we’ll see if that changes I guess.

Still chewing through TotK when I have free time to. Hoping I can get to a point where I’m happy taking a break by the time Pikmin 4 releases.

It’ll sort itself out. Kinda like how you could have a bunch of different subreddits about the same thing (r/gaming vs r/games vs r/videogames, for example) but one always bubbles up to be the biggest main community. Similar will happen here. There’ll be many instances for the same thing, but eventually there’ll be “the one” that becomes the unofficial official one.
