Same, I love the challenge of the kit, too bad nobody really plays it, I have to ask in chat for someone to join everytime I want to play it.

Vanilla: You drop fast, but if you're truly good you won't quickdrop. Fair
Archer: A ton of alts in that ladder, can be hard to be consistent but not really if you're actually good. Fair
Advanced UHC: You pop very fast with the bow, so if someone lands a ton of full powered shots on you you're screwed. Fairly hard
BuildUHC: Not really hard, just have to be good. Fair
IronBuildUHC: Pop very fast, one combo can change the game. Fairly hard
Diamond: One combo can change the game here too, Diamond fights are always close, even with lower ratings. Medium
UHC: Tanky bow kit, hard to die from a few bow shots unlike Advanced. Low
Iron: Take damage relatively fast, can be hard to be consistent. Not too squishy though. Medium
SG: One combo/Fns/Bow shots can all change the game, but again if you're good you won't drop from these. Medium-high
Kohi: Hard to quickdrop, relatively tanky. Low-medium
Gapple: Basically impossible to die if you're actually better than your opponent, unless he conserves the fuck out of you. Very low
Nodebuff: Tanky shit, very difficult to quickdrop. Low
Iron soup: Very, very difficult ladder. A few hits can change the game, very limited healing, rely on crits and blockhits to survive. Very hard
Horse: Since 2 bow games are involved, you need skill to win. Probably won't die if you're better. Low
Skywars: Hard to be consistent at since you can die in many ways. (Void, fall damage, normal damage, etc) Medium-high
So, to wrap it up, imo the ladder that's the hardest to keep your kdr up in is iron soup, for the reasoning above. Your thoughts? of
DAMN THIS WAS SOMETHING I WOULD DO WHEN I WAS A KID

Gapple can be super hard to be consistent in, it's arguably the "go-to" ladder for cheaters, and the top 10 is usually filled with with 50% cheaters (ask @Daveroo @HegelsBagels). You never know who you'll fight, since if someone is alting or cheating it's almost impossible to win, and it's easier to quickdrop than you think.

Gapple is much harder than you think lol. I have played for many seasons and it has increased with cheaters and more tryhards jump critting like a kangaroo@Legendcaleb

Vanilla is hard for me since the regen is complete crap and it gives you strength, so I panic when somebody gets even a 2-3 hit combo on me. So I'd put that near the top of the list. Skywars is hard too I'm like a 1500ish in that kit and ive gone against 1800-2ks and won just because they fall out of the map. Gapple/Kohi is my favorite kit because I like to tank XD… I hate worrying over my health. Just eat a gapple and spam click for a few minutes. Sounds good to me! I'm 1619 in that kit and I always win against people who are worse than me. basically look at the elo of your opponent and it determines the match. However I hate when people use their alts and I've gone against quite a few alts who were fighting like 1800s+ even though their elo was 1400. It's frustrating.Posted on 06 July 2016 - 04:15 PM
I agree with @Legendcaleb and @Daveroo - without wanting to seem like a dumb fanboy, Gapple is a difficult ladder which requires you to be extremely consistent in order to grind elo. Those who make it to the top 10 without cheating are respectable in my eyes.In my opinion, I'd classify the ladder as medium-hard. :)

Pot and gapple are a lot easier to be consistent at than bow ladders, simply because in bow ladders one hit can decide the outcome of a match. In pot/gapple this is rarely the case meaning there's slightly more room for error.Needless to say I prefer pot/gap > bow.

ironsoup & bow laddersPosted on 08 July 2016 - 04:42 AM
BuildUHC is THE easiest ladder around, i've seen people with not even 1300 ELO in potion and MCSG that are 2200+ in Build. Vanilla is incredibly easy to grind as everyone that plays it is 1400, the only problem is being quickdropped because of the amount of damage you take.As for the harder ladders, I would say horse and skywars because they are just plain stupid and random, it can take no skill to hit a 2000 elo skywars player off the edge because it is very luck based
