Guild Wars 2

Is there any plan’s to fix the ranking leaders board system? What I mean by this is. PvP is currently based on how many games you play, not what your skill is. So for an example. A team of 5 people that play together and can only play 5-10 match’s a week with 15-20 matchs on the weekend will never get onto the leaders board. Even if they had a 80%-90% win rate. Simply because 30 games a week won’t give you enough points.
Instead we have people ranked with large amounts of games played and bad win rate ratio’s
To use as an example: currently Ranked 84 as I write this has 203 wins 305 losses and a win ratio of 39.96. How is he above someone like say the current ranked 125 person with 174 wins and 148 losses and a 54% win ratio? How does those 29 more wins add up to a higher rank when he has 150 more losses?

Even if you look into the top 25 some of the ranks are strange. you have rank 22 with a 56% win ratio, 241 wins 187 losses and right above him at rank 21, the guy has a 49% win ratio 239 wins and 242 losses. This just doesn’t make sense at all.

you’re right it doesn’t.

personally, I take more pride in my win/lose% than any other random numbers Anet drops next to my name

The reason it’s not ranked by win/lose % is because the points system takes into account rewarding harder games with more points. In the above example rank 21 had been matched with what the game deemed as wins that they’d been expected to lose, but won. Rank 22 guy had ‘easier’ games than rank 21.
