Week 3: Szylonia Found 1,664 Rating Somewhere and Isn't Saying Where
Start there, because it's the number of the week. Rank 54 to rank 13, +1,664, and along the way Szylonia picked up Most Improved, Sisyphus for 3 depleted keys, and Punching Up at 726 above what 306 ilvl predicts — pushed a 14 in Den of Nalorakk while also bricking three others. That's the whole shape of a breakout week: swing big, eat some depletions, still come out 1,664 rating ahead. Ravaliraw and Algerîon ran the same play at smaller scale — 1,340 and 990 respectively, off starts near the bottom of the sheet.
Meanwhile the actual top of the table changed hands again. Annatardk takes rank 1 at 3,264 off a 27-run week, but the number that stings is the Heartbreaker: missed a Voidscar Arena +15 by 6.0 seconds. Compare Maximusjy, one seat back at 3,263 — Buzzer Beater and Workhorse both, 37 runs, 36 timed, and a +17 Murder Row push that walks off with Big Swing. One second either way and this paragraph reads differently.
Ryngeby's week is the quiet story: held rank 1 into this week, drops to rank 4 anyway — not from playing badly, 13 for 13 timed, just from everyone else playing more.
The Blinding Vale is your nemesis dungeon now, 91% timed across 47 runs — Den of Nalorakk's old seat, and Den's nowhere to be found in this week's complaints.
Groupwise, Lynnbb and Maximusjy ran together 7 times this week, pulling in Harkyana, Cyrt, Balzelb and Rogueavenger as regular company. The four-stack of Annatardk, Fâell, Pirket and Ryngeby only linked up twice, but two of the top five names in one party is still worth a mention.
And Reaktiftursu just keeps going — 30 runs, 30 timed, On a Roll for the full stretch. No drama there. Just work.
