I am fairly new to the game, but did a bit of study and managed to get into the top 100 this cycle with a decent record winning roughly 2/3 of my games.
I moved my attention to the PS5 Tournaments and the Gauntlet Mode and got quite a rude awakening lol. I got absolutely demolished in Gauntlet going 0-2.
My typical top 100 match has been a little bit sweaty, but manageable. But when I get into like the semi's of these ps5 Tournaments or Gauntlet mode, I get destroyed. I am somewhat surprised given the fact that a top 100 match is theoretically supposed to mean I am matching with some good players, but they are nothing like a typical PS5 tournament difficulty on a random afternoon. Are the best of the best players (top 25 legit) just running these tournaments on a loop and therefore you inevitably have to clash with one of them and get smoked? Are the settings different?
Curious your thoughts....
