" How do I get out of the wood league?
Hi, I'm wondering how the divisions work?
I don't know how there is a player above me who's highest rating is 665 and my current rating is 1887 when they've also played less games then me?
I play tougher games and also play more games so if it works by a trophy system how do they have 600+ trophies when I only have 200+ trophies?
