Maybe I just need more coffee, but I'm not understanding how the new point system works.

As an example, if I get Rank 7 with 3 kills and 2 assists....

Rank 7 = 20 RP

Kill/assist Multiplier = 12x, so does that mean I combine my kills and assists (5) and then multiply that by 12? So 60 RP for kills/assists + 20 RP for placement = 80 points for the match?

Or

Since everything is multiplied by a factor of 10, each kill is worth 10 RP (instead of 1) and then only your assists use the multiplier? So in my example, I'd get 30 RP for kills + 24 RP for assists, making my point total 74 for the match?

Your first calculation is correct; you will earn 80 RP for that match. We probably should have said this more explicitly as well but the screenshot of the in-game HUD shows how this math works. What might not be obvious is that the "+32 RP" takes into account the entry cost for you, so in that picture it was: ( 2 kills + 1 assists ) * 12 + ( 20 from placement ) - (24 for gold entry cost ) = 32. Yep, we know it's a lot of math; the hope is that with the HUD element you can just take a quick glance and figure out what your RP change would be at any given second.

Ranked rewards are still the same I guess?

We'll announce the Series 2 rewards later on in the season.

Damn, the devs really did swear off of posting to Reddit.

I don't quite get the math. the top theres a x12 on the 2 kills 1 assist counter. Then placement is 8th. From the chart u get 20 RP for that placement. Next to that counter theres +32 RP (is that telling me how much RP I am getting? Thats NEAT)

anyways that x12 is confusing as fuck cuz 3 x12 is already not 32.. It looks based on the chart that you got 12 RP from ur kills and get added to ur 20 RP for placement.

UI is a bit confusing. Tho i think I get the numbers

Yo I'm still confused by this LMAO but I'm sure I'll understand when it goes live and I play it.

TLDR kill enemies, place high, watch top right corner for how many points you have EZ CLAP
