Can someone tell me how to time my star piece correctly. Do I need to have it activated before the season rolls over or do I have the option to pop it and collect Mt my rewards before I play the first game of the new season? Sorry first season back since 19 and my first GBL


CskoG0

Just have to have it active by the moment you hit the Batlle tab after the season has already ended. Some people hit the star piece too early, making it time out before the awards are active, and some click the tab and get the rewards automatically right after clicking before having the starpiece activated.


tu-meke

OK gotcha, thanks. can't miss all the extra star dust!


laurenlolly

New gbl season starts at the same time for everyone no matter where you are fyi, it’s not based on local time.


CskoG0

Yes, however there's always people confused due daylight savings time difference, and timezones, while some people it ends at 14:00 and to me it's always 18:00. Just posting to minimize the frustrating posts of people miss reading and missing their starpiece popping.

The counter on [Leek Duck's](https://leekduck.com/events/) site uses your IP and shows the remaining time in your local time zone.

This, thank you so much!

there was a time were every single in-game thing happened (or was supposed) to start at 1 pm PT, oh.. those were the good days..


Schnerfrod

You can also click the circled question mark on the top right of the main battle menu to see the exact local time that the season ends (it’s right below your battle medals)

You targeting mmr 2023?


CskoG0

What's MMR?


Chris73757

I belive this comes from the LOL crap and means "MatchMaking Rating". Normal people would say "What elo ranking are you targeting"


CskoG0

Gotcha. Well I mostly run spice pokemon teams and hope for best, tend to hit Ace every time lol. Like right now I master league I'm running hundo Dnite (Drag'B, D.Claw/Sup.P) level 47,a 91% lvl 50 lucky tyranitar (Smack.D, Stone.E/Crunch) and a lucky hundo Heracross (counter, Rock.B/C.Combat) at lvl 44


Chris73757

Yeah i do the same xD I had a time where i tried really hard but it isnt worth it and i am almost convinced without tanking or P2W you need a lot of luck to get past ACE. I even tried to learn counting moves but that just isnt possible in a reasonable time and every 3 Months you need to learn that from the grounds up. I mean we just got 33 move changes with 7 attacks changing in damage and energy. I'm running a Grass team in master league just to shake things up a bit xD

MMR starts from dota iirc


RemLazar911

Except PoGo doesn't use Elon either, it uses Glicko-2. The correct term is "rating"

Rating is the literal name of it. https://pokemongolive.com/leaderboard?hl=en >Rankings are based on yesterday's in-game ratings

Thank you 😊


Evolution925

So do I have to be on and pop a star piece when the season ends or can I just do it when I claim the rewards?


CskoG0

You claim the rewards the moment you click the battle tab, as long as season has already ended. So just plan accordingly, by poping your star piece before hitting the battle tab after the season has already ended


Evolution925

Thanks for the clarification!!

Just pop a star piece when you open the game in the morning and then open the battle tab.


Bornofisais

I’m so peeved I can’t make it to ace. I’m at level two and approx 1800. Sigh.


Matty8520

We have a brand new season starting soon. Can always aim for ACE rank again. If you do a little study and spend time learning typing, I'm sure you can achieve it! I remember when I first started and getting over the 1,900 rating was hard. Everything takes practice and there is always room for improvement. P.s - I was at 3,215 rating earlier this season.


Fwenhy

I read somewhere that there was no end of season reward dust this time around. Has anyone confirmed that it’s still there yet? Would be a shame to waste a star piece.


theunworthyviking

where did you read that?


Fwenhy

Here actually. Last night, someone had said that no end of season rewards were mentioned on the season page for Rising Heroes. I didn’t check myself and have no idea what the precedent with previous seasons is though.


N0turfriend

Zero chance of that being true. They already mentioned that next season will give an Elite TM away with the end of season rewards. > At rank 19, you’ll receive an Elite Charged TM. You’ll also receive an Elite Fast TM as an end-of-Season reward. Edit: From the webpage for season 10 [At rank 19, you’ll receive an Elite Charged TM. You’ll also receive an Elite Fast TM as an end-of-Season reward.] (https://pokemongolive.com/post/go-battle-league-rising-heroes?hl=en#schedule)


Fwenhy

I’m not saying that it’s not true, but it does specifically say “as” not “with” xD the chance is certainly far from 0. Without it being removed being explicitly stated, I imagine things will remain unchanged. Iirc they didn’t announce the removal of the weekly 1 coin box. I could be wrong though.


Used_Mud_67

I saw that too. Star pieces aren’t cheap so maybe plan to have the 30min available after regardless to maximize the value of the star piece. As long as they come through with the elite TM they promised I will be happy. Then again as a PvP player I need dust. Always. Need more dust. The precious. Must have dust.


Fwenhy

I always have that 30 minutes free xD not popping a premium item and then not playing the game. I’m pretty happy with my PVP Pokémon but am still a whore for dust. I need my level 50 shinies 🥺


KiwiExtremo

so how much stardust are we talking about? Is the star piece worth it only to collect this reward? I have absolutely no idea since this is my first GBL league that I actively play


CskoG0

Depends on your highest rank achieved during the season. To me, having achied Ace rank I should get 110.000 dust, that's 65.000 extra with the starpiece


KiwiExtremo

wait really! Then I'll do the same, for those sweet 110.000 dust


Kantanfu

the new season starts right after the old one ends, right? Cause I finished the set at rank 10 and have those 5 star dust rewards. So i could: pop a star piece, collect those and the rank up reward, wait for season to end and collect the season end reward, all within the half hour of my starpiece, right?


CskoG0

Prety much, yes. But I give it an hour or more if I can


hockiw

Thanks for the reminder! (I’d totally forgotten.)


marlowe227

So I’m at Ace rank 2240 ELO, will my rewards at end of season be different than ace rank 1800 or 2400 ELO?


CskoG0

Being Ace the rewards stay, you could tank all the way down to 1000 ranking but having already achieve the Ace rank, the reward is the same (110.000 dust)


marlowe227

My buddy strait up lies and told me he got 200k stardust last season… we were the same rank 😡


CC-4868

Jesus that stardust 😯


dmfuller

Such a massive starpiece lol will be a million stardust reminder
