NetEase's latest item, Chrono Shield Cards, has sparked controversy for potentially undermining competitive integrity in its hero-shooter game. These cards prevent rank loss for players in lower tiers, which some argue could inflate rankings and allow trolls to affect match outcomes without consequences. While currently obtainable via a free rewards system, there's concern over future monetization. The feature, aimed at easing pressure for low-ranking players, raises fears of unwanted inflation in competitive ranks and could set a precedent for future monetization strategies.
Chrono Shield Cards might inflate ranks, preventing the usual consequences of poor performance that sorts players into their respective skill tiers.
