My opinion on Leader Board.
I pretty much agree with you tcbear, I love Ostrich Eggs but if he’s the best engie NA then I am significantly better than I thought.
Back on point though, so 2 of my tournament teammates are ranked above me with less games played, less win% and all around lower pvp level… so I really cant understand how its ranking people…
Anvil Rock hotm chat is on fire with negative feedback.
I agree the leaderboard is not the best and it does not reflect the 100% reality of the pvp scene. I am from UC and to be honest in our time zone there are really not many or no good teams around, just because we are from asia, we play in the asia time zone and we play the game with 200+ping, it was always not easy and you have to give us some credit, even back when paid tournaments were just live in october, we managed to get ourself into the top 50 when team PZ dominated every game in the first two weeks, every week we spared one to two days in the noon just to play paid tournaments because in asia time zone the paid tournaments just won’t pop!
But at least the leaderboard shows you some kind of facts that most top players are on the board e.g. best thief NA – Caed, best bunker guard NA – Davinci etc.
I disagree best engi NA is Ostrich and also best warrior NA is Anastasis Tactic. Best engi NA should be hiba or five gauge and best warrior NA should be Hman, come on Anastasis Tactic is not even in the top 100 leaderboard and you tell me hes best warrior NA, was that a joke? Hes definitely good but not the best, peace.

Well thanks tcbear for saying I am the best warrior NA lol.
and Yea, I don’t think I am the best warrior NA either dreamer, and I am not even on leader board… well… I think it’s because I don’t play tournament that often recently. I guess not even more than 20 times so… I join solo a lot, and in my time zone, the enemy teams are all pros. According what you have said dreamer, I’m kinda agree with you, but I never forget your engineer friend so mad at me in a tournament. Although Ishana explained to me before, I’m kinda curious that is there any relationship between these.
For the best engineer in NA, most people saying it’s Ostrich. I guess most people judge people’s skill by their famous level, and Ostrich is like E-Famous now, and you should ask around, Ostrich is really good at playing condi engi. I don’t really judge someone’s skills because I don’t really think there is a best player, only a famous player. And another funny thing is, everyone think they are the best, but I don’t.
Again, thanks for your judges guys, and I am enjoy that someone talking about me on the forum.

I took a look at the leaderboards and have stopped playing GW2. Totally useless.
Yes the leaderboards are useless. Is that a reason to quit GW2? No. If you are quitting GW2 because of the leaderboards, you weren’t pvp’ing for the right reasons.
Tcbear, I would just like to add that I actually got my rank 1 partly due to soloq. I did soloq for about 4 weeks because at that time we all expected a reset, the reset never came and my winratio is what it is.
The point about all the high ranks playing during nighttime is not true at all because I never did it and on the EU servers I know players that did. They ended up alot further down on the ranking status probably because beating soloq players at night gave less rating.

Used to soloq all time i had no teamates up (Pretty much every time except for evenings) and this just ruined everything…now i’m forced to go with full premade only, time for fun is over…now it’s all bout farming pugs..
Face it…you have 2 options here:
Going with 40+ premade owning soloq for leaderboards
Going soloq feeding premades farming all day long
This is just going to force ppl to hotjoin since most tpvpers, even many high ranked ones can go with a core team for just a few runs a day…the rest of the time you can’t go tpvp solo because you’re going to screw your ladder facing ts premades……
Another epic fail imo.
Just let us to chose if we want to go for a “ranked” match or for a “4fun” one (like gw1 gvg that had apparently the same ranking system)…so ppl who are going for leaderboards will face other organised teams, i see many ppl who are just plain bad on top positions in eu just because they used to farm all day and now they’re just going to farm pugs…sure if they meet a good team they are probably going to be ganked badly…but meanwhile they already roflstomped 15 pugs in the morning….

inb4: why am I not #1?
Leaderboards are awesome. Haters gonna hate.
Nope just everyone is going to run full premades only…and those who can’t well….they’re going to just quit tpvp.
Easy and simple, dunno if intended but it’s how is gonna end..

Meh I tried to quit but PvP is too addictive. I hope I’m not the first person to have said something they didn’t mean on the interwebz?!

Haha, you flipping troll.
Anyway, yea playing at nightime will definitely get you top stats. I solo queue a lot but I also play with a few friends at nightime and sometimes we go on quite a win streak even against some good team comps. In fact, I had quite a good match against a few Curse guys on EU with a solo queue pug late at night. It was funny because I expected to be wiped on the floor but totally the opposite.

Yeh my rank is like 90% and I want to play and win so don’t pug anymore but haven’t found a good team.
