This thread does not target anyone in any particular way but as an observer , I feel ranked PvP is very unfair . I’m very sure quiet a handful number of players are as skilled as Mr.X if not more !
This time I got to witness what kind of brainless grind fest ranked PvP is ! This is not healthy in long run for PvP.
But grinding element cannot be taken away as well since that’s what demarcates a casual player from a hardcore player .
Considering both grind element and skill exhibition , my suggestion to make ranked PvP , a level field for all who want to try for top spots is this :
As a player scores more ranking points , the amount of points gathered must dimnish per win and lose more points compared to win-points . This will make players use their tickets carefully and play games strategically instead of just spamming matches during ranked .
Let’s say everyone starts with 1k points per win . When they reach 25k points , they must gain let’s say 500 points per win and lose 500 per loss.
When they reach 50k points , they must gain 250 points and lose 750 points per loss +/- and so on
Looking forward for any better suggestions or discussions and hopefully mods will bring the outcome to dev’s notice !
I agree with Lemon. A lot of people here just like playing PVP for fun and rewards and don’t shoot for 1st place. Slowing down search times and limiting tickets to those who get 50-60 win % and could care less about top 10, will take away a lot of the fun.
I don’t think will do anything good to ranked PvP. Win rate factors into things enough already. The problem comes for the absolute top positions where it’s not just high win rate, it’s high win rate AND grinding non-stop.
LemonSqueezy’s idea in another thread where the top 10 players are positioned based on win rate is perfect I think, as long as it’s possible for the Devs to do. Then people only need to play enough to get into the top 10, then while in the top 10 they can work to improve their win rate or to keep their score up enough to stay in top 10.
I have two different suggestions:
During ranked tickets come back only once per hour. Less time needed to grind.
Ranked PvP is turned into 3 daily leaderboards, with lower rewards for the positions (combined is more than current). At the start of each day our tickets are reset to 12 and they recover every 30 mins as normal.
He grinds and gives more of his life to this game than most, but it takes some skill to get the win rates he gets. He may have a specific team, but his play would also have to be flawless. I, for example, could take a team built by Lochi or Jamal and still only go 50% lol.
That said, reducing the grind would definitely give about 5-10 other players a really really good chance to unseat X.
lol lowering the amount of games only secures my throne even more.
your forgetting that i usually go +40 to +60 winstreaks before receiving my first loss. if games were 50-60 i might do 100% win-rate during those pvps and gl to others catching up.
another point is if players were at my level or higher than my level as professor clams then over the course of 9 months shouldn’t those players have beat me to the rank 1 you know its a long period and they had plenty of time to do so.
i am just gonna tag some honest players that would tell you the truth and this should be my last comment on this matter.
It’s true @Professor_Oak
It’s not just because of grinding. Lol you said this thread doesn’t target anyone then you specify @Mr.X !! Naughty professor. He has an incredible win rate. I don’t think as much as players as you think can do that. 92% win rate is ridiculous. That’s got nothing to do with grind.
I have to disagree this time old man.
you forgot to mention that this 92% winrate was done in a pvp were 95% of the players either are playing a counter team to mine or players that copied my style of play.
Let’s please keep this on the topic of ranked PvP suggestions to make it better. @Mr.X Please do not use this as a thread to simply brag about your win rate. I believe your win rate will put you in a brilliant position for 1st place no matter the ranked PvP system but reducing the grind in general will definitely make others (myself included) more keen to compete.
You act like you the only player who has a good win rate. I had a 96% win rate when using one team. It’s not hard honestly. Even when i ran multi team i still keep a 85% or better win rate. Nobody beat u because you grind. You literally stop playing pvp. Notice Anna was gone beat u and stayed up till 4 am just to barely win. Ppl have jobs. Ppl have life. I wish they based the rank part of pvp off win rate because Ik plenty of player that either go even with u or you may beat them 3-2 times. Don’t get the big head because u be beaten these trash player
I wonder how many players actually have a win rate of 90+ % with their main team. You are definitely one of those players though. Anything above 80% is awesome.
I’m not sure what to think about in regards to the suggestion in the OP. One thing I would miss if we had a set amount of tickets during ranked is the extra battles I played for fun even though my top 50 was guaranteed after 1 and a half day.
It would be a shame to miss out on the extra battles. I think having PvP ranked run for 4 days was ridiculous. Reduce it to 3 again.
