Guild Wars 2

I noticed that the leaderboard system rewards you for not playing after a lucky win streak. Because the more you play the less rank you gain. In the other hand a losing streak is extremly punishing you can lose so much rank just because of 3 loses.

Basically if you win 5 games in a row and end up in the top 50-100 you can just afk from there and play 1 game per day and show everybody how skilled you are because you never dropped out of the top 50.

So maybe there should be a more accurrate system? Lets say I’m always around top 400 and lose 5 games in a row, with the current system it could kick me out of the leaderboard or 5 wins in a row would put me in top 100.

Which is not accurate at all because in reality I’m supposed to be rank 400 on average. The rank should only move after MANY games played not just 2-3.

I know solo Q dosent matter but having a better leaderboard would already lower the QQ on the forum about how bad solo Q is.

It’s not even bad you only need 5 wins to get to top 100. I had a winning streak of 9 a few days back and I went from 95% to 97%.. And being out of the ladder is basically a hellhole you can’t crawl out of. The type of players that I’m getting there is making my head hurt while I’m watching them play… And it’s not like I can carry 4 of such players, so it’s basically a lottery.

Yesterday’s result in SoloQ: 1 win 11 losses, 4 games 4v5, 5 games on Skyhammer.

Loads of fun…

Soloq has gotten worse, not better over time…which is disappointing.

This last patch really did nothing for the game, and I’m sure the quickly declining population stats prove it.

At some point they have to take SoloQ seriously and get rid of all the rage quitters that corrupt the game.

Even hotjoins need some level of accountability because right now the pervasive attitude of Anet seems to be…

“We’re determined to attract players who think starting matches uneven makes sense…rage quitting is fine…and doing all of these PLUS exploiting is team swap is no problemo when playing casually.”

Good luck with that Anet.
