One of my recent games left me with a strange bonus pool. I fully believe this is some sort of glitch, but I was given a negative 3 Bonus pool after my 3v3 team was promoted to a new league.

enter image description here

Is it possible to get a negative bonus pool, or is this a glitch?

The way the bonus pool system is designed, you are definitely experiencing a glitch. The bonus pool is designed as a reward / incentive. A negative bonus pool would punish you for playing; there is no way this would ever be intentional. Congrats on the promotion!

Here are some links explaining the bonus pool:

I don't have any references to directly prove that a negative bonus pool is invalid, but it can be deduced from the various descriptions and observed behaviors.

  • Thats what I thought. Thanks for the confirmation and thanks for the congratulations. Except I was playing with my bronze friends so I kinda carried them to silver... haha.
