Guild Wars 2

its bad and not fair. here is the trick to being top player in spvp, makes a full party that u always play with, only play with them or most of them or dont play ever. with that party, get good and play constantly until u improve and get good ratio eventually.

and now for people like me…

explain how to play to every single team member each and everytime u do tourny, then hope that they follow along and dont do awful. if u have an afk player, u lose, if u have a RQ player that leaves….u lose, if the forgot wat they need to do u lose, if they “disagree with ur methods and tactics” u either give in to their method or dont, either way u lose cuz there is disagreement, if u get super tired of explaining strategy each and every game and therefore stop explaining then u lose, if ur teamsmates cant rez/fight then u lose. LOL

i was lucky enough to find 1 player to play gw2, but he is a bit meh and got bored and he always gets bored of every single game lol, sometiems he wans to play tourny and other times he plays sometin else or doesnt play anything at all…..lol.

PVP ratio should be based on kills/deaths alone and if u wana rate on contribution to the team then it should be top player scores awarded vs total games played

i wont lie, this would favor me due to the fact that i rarely ever lose a fight especially in a 1vs1, and my top player scores awarded destroys my total games played, BUT it is the most logical way to rate some1 on leaderboards, i mean seriously -.-

You’re asking for them to destroy the validity of the boards just because you personally do not wish to put in the effort required to put together a team.

You are not barred from competing. You are not restricted.

You know exactly how to get on the boards, and you know that the method involves winning games.

A kills leaderboard would be meaningless, as it would be measuring something irrelevent to correct tpvp play. Winning is what matters, winning against people who win. That is what the board measures and that is what the board should measure.

Find 10 other people who also want to rate on the board. Replace them if they are unable to reach a reasonable skill cap.

the fact still remains that i am getting rated unfairly. i am getting rated individually on sometin that requires a full team effort. it makes no sense. they should do it based on teams and have a team system, in the end of the day i am gettign rated individually on sometin that is not for an individual alone

lol i just told a couple of my friends and they think its ridiculous. the leaderboards ranking system for spvp is ridiculous and completely unbalanced. the game isnt encouraging u to pvp. its basically saying, “hey BUDDY u get a team and make sure their good and only play with them, if not HAHAHAHA u shouldnt even BOTHER”. lol its silly, u CANNOT rank some1 individually on sometin that they did not earn themselves, it should be team ranking.

no one is responding to this thread? ok, so you are all happy with having an individual ranking based on something that you only partially participated in? do you feel proud in knowing that ur “individual” ranking is not based on ur own individual skill to excel? that your ranking is based on what your team does instead of you? lol i would feel ashamed, especially knowing that if i am the only person left playing out of my group, then i either become a “noob” useless in tournies or i would have to go on a huge mission to find another good group to do tournies with regularly. idk if u understand that ur insignificant in leaderboards once ur team starts quitting or become a bit inactive, yet you are ranked individually as if it was u alone who made any real progress? HA! for all you kno u were partied with a good player that helped u raise ur ratio wen in reality u did nothing urself; thats another possibility.

therefore in conclusion i will never base some1’s pvp skill lvl because of their ratio and/or leaderboard ranking. because that person’s pvp skill on leaderboards is on how good u can gather up people and make a party to play with on a regular basis, not on how good they actually are in spvp…..hence leaderboards just tells me who i should party with….they might suck, but ik that person will be able to make a full party in seconds, SO leaderboards is a party matching system that helps u get in contact with people who know people, and HENCE why leaderboards is a social network.

SAY WUT!

well guys i wont bother mentioning this anymore unless i get a reply on this thread….but i am 100% right and there is no way i can be proven wrong. dont get me wrong, i am sure PLENTY of you r ok with this, but i take pride in my pvp skills wen i pvp….i dont take pride in how fast i can fill up my friend’s list.

here is some wisdom, no1 goes into team pvp tournies to lose….no1 unless they r afk or RQ lol. u cant base ranking on teams to begin with (even though the topic is about ranking some1 individually on a team effort) because no1 joins a team tournament to lose, lol they go there to win, lol meaning that in the end every1 jus wants to win and therefore it should always be based on individual kill/death/top player awards/games played and never on a team win/lose rate cuz since every1 is in the same page and same playing field i wana win field, then whats left? what separates them? what makes them different? its their individual skill, AKA what they should be ranked on.

SPvP isn’t a solo event…it’s a team sport. So you get rated by your team. If you don’t want to make a team, that’s okay too, but don’t expect to be the best at PvP.
