Let’s make a point.

-There’s no balance at all ( i really don’t know what the closed beta or open beta weekend were to, cause all classes are not balanced ).

-There’s not a decent matchmaking system, due to:
1) Few players ( you can’t do anything about, so to have less queue you had to merge soloq and premades. Not your fault, but add another map and allow players to exploit by playing only stronghold, and then had taken players from the normal ranked arena map, was not a good choice )
2) Classes without a role:Gw2 started as a game without roles ( every class could had cover a specific role ). In Gw2 wasn’t quiete good, but hot brought Healers and Bunkers. And not all the classes are allowed to play healer/support/bunker into a competitive scenario. Some of them can’t also play a dps role. So all the games start with DPS, hoping in their team will be at least one elementalist, or druid. And if there re 2 druids on the enemy team which are not premade, something is really going wrong.
3) Pips gain/lose: ( actually is going to be fixed, but seriously… why simple things like these were not fixed on beta? )
4)Arena fixes during the Arena season: ( which allowed players to exploit, not get punished cause were the arena rules, and new players forced to play with fixes ). Seasons also are shorts ( 3 months each ), so there will be no problems.

As fixes i’m obviously talking about balancing. not fixing bugs ( like thief SB 3, for an instance ).

I’m not claiming the you must let the other players exploit as the previous did.
What i’m saying is that you first must test things on ptr, then release em. If you fail at first, don’t worry. But be ready to “disable ranked arenas” till the problem is solved as soon as you can ( 24h would be enough to see the situation and click on “disable arena” ).

- Afkers/Disconnecters unpunished: what to say about it? plenty unpunished players who join and afk/troll/disc, and the ones who pay are the players ( most the soloq ). Especially on diamond legend i guess ( cause no tier checkpoint ).

I knew since from the start ( thank to some years of wow ) that devs don’t give a kitten about spvp, cause the most of the players are casuals from PvE, but still please.

If you need community help or support we’re here.
I, and hope the most of spvp players, are looking for a fair spvp game, and don’t care about spvp tracks, daily quests, skins, etc… so if possible, let us help somehow.
