With all the apparent bad match making, match manipulation, and low population for pvp, maybe there shouldn’t be any a difference between unranked/ranked matches?
Maybe just have a rank board for everyone that pvps without any kind of title reward, and have the pip reward track basically act like the regular reward tracks. You work your way through to byzantium. Once you complete the byzantium chest, the pip rewards reset completely from the beginning with cerulean?
Doing away with the seasons may help to alleviate some of the disgruntleness that players feel in pvp? Maybe?
