Rant from a casual floor 9-10 player
I made a similar post abt my issues with this game like a day ago. Im in floor 9 and i win most of my games. I play bedman? and am happy with my skill most of the people i fight are my level and its fair. I go to floor 10 and i get destroyed. How am i supposed to beat people who are level 1000+ on their character. This all stems from the tower system and its actually the worst multiplayer system ive ever seen an any game across every genre. I wish i could just stay in 9 and learn and enjoy the game instead im pretty much free points for day 1 and legacy skill players. It dosent feel fair and has killed all my drive to improve and to play the game.

I know that the answers / replies are just gonna be to get good or to adapt etc and that this is an old game so its expected that people will be sweaty and hyper proficient with their characters. I just wanted to rant and voice my displeasure for this game from a casual and 1st time fg player. Also season 4 patch sucked (except for the bed changes) and the 3v3 mode is dumb why did they give it the ranked mode. Also dizzy sucks buff her remove wings of light and give her more zoning.

I see part of the problem coming from how Celestial is set up. There's a noticeable distribution of skill there and inevitably the lower skilled players are sent back down to the 10th floor. So you're basically rolling the dice whether a player is really 10th floor rank or not. The tower system is massively flawed in design.

Check in the park for similarly skilled players and rematch as many times as you two agree. Also follow them in case you see them online again (it's in the right of the lobby selection list I believe).

I completely understand why you feel the way you do, and I won't try to downplay the frustration you're feeling. However, as someone who adores the tower system, enjoying the tower really comes down to changing your perspective.

The reason I think the tower works so well is that there's no real consequence for losing. Think of floor 10 as like a "celestial lite". You can face a broad range of players and skill levels without any true negative consequences.

If you get booted to floor 9, you can just stay on floor 10 anyway. The initial launch of the game meant that celestial was way easier to get than it should have been, giving people the false impression that their main goal should be celestial. In reality, celestial is supposed to be the exclusive club for tournament pros and 10 hours a day grinders to fight the best of the best.

If you prefer a traditional ranked system that's perfectly fine. But after reframing how I looked at it, it feels so much better to just play matches against both better and worse players without stressing about some sort of imaginary number.

On my server about 1/4 of the floor 10 players are comparable to floor 9.5 in level. Maybe urs is different but I think you can manage if you vet the people you play against a bit more. Otherwise ya, if u want to just stay on one floor...well that's floor 10. But if ur already floor 9 honestly its just a matter of adding 1 more skill to your toolbox. I got to floor 10 by learning to throw. So if ur up for it: just think of a mechanic you don't use that interests you and practice it.

Could be a rc, a wakeup super, a wild assault combo, a roundstart move, Fd or deflect shield. I'm sure there's something that interests you. Or you could just taunt alot while playing floor 9 matches or handicap yourself some other way....taunting is fun, and u play for fun, so taunt more and give the enemy some free meter.

It's super normal to feel that way, but be aware that the difficulty of staying in F10 is only the first annoying wall you will face. It gets only worse, because the ranked mode sucks.

So at this point, since the dev don't intend to fix the issues, your only choice is to accept that fact if you like the game enough, or play something else.

What worked for me to get rid of the feeling was just stop worrying about my floor, play wherever the game put me, and focus on improving my gameplay.
If you manage to do that I can promise you will enjoy the game more.
Courage !

People who are level 890586 trillion don't have 890586 trillion units of skill, and if they're slumming down in floor 10, with or without the celestial badge, then they're simply not very good players.
