Do you boost during regular season?

[iluvnug]

I am going up against some unnamed maxed out opponents in my current season. I have 4 greats pros less than the 2 favored full great pro trucks poised to smash the season. I was full on boosts so I used 2 boosts in our second meetings. I am consequently yelled at by both players and told how weak i am by the number 1 opponent. I didn't realize boosting 2 stats was going to upset people so much.

Typically, I don't use boosts until the finals. But occasionally I have before for better positioning in the standings/playoff brackets. Is using boosts during the regular season frowned upon these days? Even when going against obviously superior opponents?

Nope do it to position yourself to make finals

This is a game. Your purpose in this game is to win. Boosting is not cheating. It's a tool provided from the game.

As far as i am concerned you can boost whenever you want, unless of course both players have agreed not doing it.

I'd personally now boost against them again to piss them off lol.

I agree with the above, boosts are there to be used.

I tottaly agree boost is there for a reason.


Someone boosted against me last season to have a better seeding. I understood why he did, and let him know I would ready for the next matchup. We actually trash talked each other for fun .

Boosting is normal. if it can change the outcome of the season. What annoys me are people who are losing 3-0 start boosting to steal one game even if they have no way to win the series...

Re: Do you boost during regular season?

i normally only boost to get or drop to a certain playoff seed

but really who cares if you boost or not its part of the game and therefore should be used

I see nothing wrong with it. I've boosted towards the end of a season to make sure I got a certain seed.

I've also made a pact with a few players to not boost during the finals which we have both upheld.

Re: Do you boost during regular season?

Like everyone else said, I do it in the season only to position myself, but usually I have to do the opposite when there's a team better than mine who's not energizing much. If I'm in 1st, I have to start tanking to make sure we don't end up in the same bracket.

Now in the playoffs I usually only boost when I get boosted against, can't really trust anyone. Now if we have equal teams and you want to do a no boost clause in the finals because you used them all to make it there, then sorry. It's not my fault that I have all of mine and you used yours up, I'm not making it easier for you... spend them credits!

Re: Do you boost during regular season?

When I throw it out there to not use boosts in the playoffs it's never a result of having no boosts or credits. It's purely that we have real similar teams and it's almost a waste. If they accept, cool, if not so be it. Guess I've just been lucky that with the players I've hit up they've accepted and kept their word. Even in a game 7.

Re: Do you boost during regular season?

I am having terrible situation right nów with one of the guy...

(not mentioned his name maybe he Say sorry)

#1 before playoffs guy from #2 seed offer to EVERYONE - open chat- no boosting during playoffs

#2 my answer (as #1 82-0) was very fast: NO! I said that is too much risk and I had bad expirance. I told him that I dont trust people outside forum and it is only reason to Say NO

#3 he said OK

#4 during semifinals his opponent (#3) G1 used boosts so #2 aswered next games and won

#5 I made finals in 4games so just waiting and preparing
I ordered Energy after my G4 and after that turn ON boosts

#6 well prepared was driving car but with smartphone on..

#7
I noticed offer not using boosts in game time so I aswered NO DEAL (again)

#8 guy was yelling at me/called me stupid etc *##

Facts are:

- no deal
- I was seed #1 with 82:0
-he used his boosts so deal no boosting was better to him

Even if i didn't anything wrong I feel bad....
We have very similar decks:
My 10 PO PRO vs 9 but he has more PO GSW F ( he has Green Curry Klay PRO and single Iggy - I have not every GSW but every Pro)

What should I do?
Give him one Gamę without boosting and give up 1 game?

I call it startegy when someone is out of boosting and feeling that way never made such Kind agreement with opponent ( there is chance that he is out of credits and just he want to use that agreement to hide weakness...

I hope other player TANNER/Dr Taylor if member can confirm NO DEAL

Everything was in open chat so any whispers...

Re: Do you boost during regular season?

If you said no don't feel guilty about it or give him a free win. Just boost and play it out.

Re: Do you boost during regular season?

Normally if there is a game 7 during a series that was agreed no boosts, you should boost but make sure you tell the other guy that you are boosting in advance

Normally, no.
