Riot adds more XP to the missions*

TLDR: You lose out on 200 Tokens compared to all 3 Worlds passes before, cause of the "System Change" and Rito says its exactly the same tuning as before.

I've seen u/Rovient stating that the pass is exactly the same as before in this "new system".

So I thought I'll compare the Worlds Passes and yeah it's a nerf to tokens *again*.
Also they shortened the Worlds Pass duration *again* back to 2020.

The table uses 70 SR Games, 50% WR with 30min average game time.
Why 70? That's the perfect # to secure all weekly and milestones in old passes and the whole track in the new pass (66,66 to be precise)

You are now getting around 300 Tokens more from Weeklys (which are now just spread out on the reward track) but you lose out on 500 Tokens from the repeatable mission.

The TOTAL token difference will also not change after playing more games.(excluding '19, tokens per game haven't been nerfed back then)

Worlds 2019 Pass Worlds 2020 Pass Worlds 2021 Pass Worlds 2022 Pass
Duration Sep. 26th - Nov. 19th (54 Days)* Oct. 1st - Nov. 9th (39 Days)* Sep. 23rd - Nov. 8th (46 Days)* Oct. 6th - Nov. 14th (39 Days)*
All Free & Paid Tokens 400(Free) + 200(From Pass Purchase) + 972(Weekly/Track) = 1572 400(Free) + 200(From Pass Purchase) + 1225(Weekly/Track) = 1825 400(Free) + 200(From Pass Purchase) + 1200(Weekly/Track) = 1800 400(Free) + 200(From Pass Purchase) + 1500(Weekly/Track) = 2100
End of Game Token Reward (70 Games SR 50% W/R) 630 525 525 20 (Cause you no longer generate tokens from repeat mission b4 the pass is done)
Total Amount of Tokens after 70 Games SR 50% W/R 30 min. Average.** 2202 2350 2325 2120

* First and last day of each pass counted as half a day, independent of hours used on that day.
** 30 minutes average game time cause that's what riot used to convert from Tokens after game to Points after game based on minutes

Smol add to "new system" I am using 10k XP from UPCOMING missions in the calculations. there is nothing missing.

You get 10k xp from missions total at the end of the event which are 25 levels. while completing these, you get another 10k from end of game xp.

Hey everyone! Looking into this on our side to double check this because this was definitely not our intention. The worlds pass this year was supposed to have the same tokens as last years.

I'll follow up soon when we know what's going on.

Hey everyone, the team just finished working on this issue and we've come to the conclusion that we did indeed make a mistake. You are correct, if you played 70 games during this worlds pass compared to the previous one, you'd be down approximately 205 tokens. This is because we folded 5 weekly missions' worth of tokens (at 200 tokens each) into the rewards track rather than 6 weekly missions' worth.

It was an honest mistake due to navigating new challenges that came with our first New Pass experience and launching at Worlds. Excuses aside, we want to reiterate that we messed up and we're going to make it right. We're updating the Empyrean missions (launching in patch 12.21) to grant an additional 4400 Pass XP across those 10 missions. In other words, if a mission rewarded 300 XP before, it will now reward 740 XP. The total XP rewarded for all 10 Empyrean missions will be 8300 XP. That's the equivalent of another 11 pass milestones (or 220 tokens). We appreciate the attention to detail, and we will be double checking all upcoming events to ensure this doesn't happen again.
