REMOVE ELO DECAY
Posted on 05 March 2018 - 04:57 PM
Just to play devil's advocate (Since this is literally just a thread of +1s with hardly any reasoning) it seems to me like this would encourage competition in the ladders. Let's be honest, a bunch of players get a kit like archer to a decent spot, and then basically only play build for the rest of the season. Wouldn't this encourage players with higher elo to play these ladders? I don't play too often any more, but when I did, I would que for archer and either get someone who has never played it or a 2000. It would get people to keep playing the ladder in order to keep their spot. Also, it seems it doesn't even take effect if you play sometime once a week. I think the wording of the rule may have confused people. The way I read it, the "grace period" matches don't even start unless you don't play for 7 days. Now, what if you go on vacation? What if you're sick on the days you usually play? All completely valid questions. It is by no means a perfect rule, and theres a LOT of room for improvement, but it has positives too. I'm not even sure if I'm for or against this, but I just wanted to at least note the positives before everyone just decides they don't like it.Posted on 05 March 2018 - 05:01 PM

so basically your afraid to play ranked, and dont understand that this update is to prevent pussies like you from being at the top and being too scared to lose elo in block game.Posted on 05 March 2018 - 06:22 PM

I feel like most people just don't play archer because its boring af

Maybe that's the case for lots of people, but it's the same for every kit that isn't build. Encouraging people to play the other ladders can only end positively.Posted on 05 March 2018 - 07:21 PM

I haven't played in ages and I come on to see some bullshit responses by staff members. Good to see that the staff are as clueless as ever. Atleast Badlion is consistent at having poor staff. Anyway, what the fuck is the point in that? Then no one is going to look at the decay elo, people will just ask for raw elo and compare people's raw elo stats. No one would give 2 shits about their decay elo. Smh.
Just because a Community Manager suggests information doesn't give you a right to call them out lol. If your going to be like that, then don't bother replying at all.
