Back To Gold III

I was climbing up Gold II steadily and then I got beaten back with one defeat after another, finding myself well entrenched in Gold III. Don't think I will make it beyond Gold II come the end of the season. What a challenging one it has been. Played so much my capture rate is in the mid 70s now.

Here you can see the string of losses. And that's not including the alternate wins and losses. I wonder what happened to switch things around so quickly. Does a lower capture rate mean tougher opponents?

As for rewards, I lost the screenshot but the highlight was a rare card and a bit of SPS. The rest were merits and potions in the five or six chests. I can't remember how many already. Will wait for the capture rate to recharge a little before playing again.
